The Chelsea Fancast Archive - "Chelsea FanCast v The Press"

We delve in to the Chelsea FanCast Archive over the summer break and dig up some classic Chelsea FanCast’s from the past. This week's episode is Chelsea FanCast #226

On this week’s Classic Chelsea FanCast we repeat the show originally recorded on 4th December 2012 where Stamford Chidge invited some of the leading Football Journalists to debate the press coverage of Chelsea FC and the Fans. Think the ASBO lovechild of ‘Question Time’ meets ‘Sunday Supplement’! ‘Stamford’ Chidge presented the show and assumed the 'David Dimbleby' role, and asked questions sent in by Chelsea fans from all over the world.

Martin Lipton, Chief Football Writer at the Mirror; Neil Ashton, the Daily Mail’s Football News Correspondent; Rob Shepherd, football writer formerly at Today; the Daily Express and the News of the World and Dan Levene, Chelsea FC writer for the Fulham Chronicle were on the panel.

There were many issues on the agenda at the time...

Chelsea fans believed that both they and the club were getting unfair treatment from the press. Whilst elements of this were clearly justified, the intensity and volume of these attacks led us to believe that it was driven by an agenda. However, the show was not a hatchet job on the Press led by Chelsea attack dogs. During the show we discussed issues such as the relationship between the press, club, players and fans; the impact of social media; the negativity surrounding Chelsea; Terry-gate; Clattenburg-gate and Di Matteo & Benitez.

Recorded in Putney Station in front of a live audience, it was a unique opportunity for Chelsea fans to explain how they feel and get a response from the Press as to what is really going on and why.
