Chelsea not going to parade their F.A cup.

From the BBC website

Quote:

Chelsea will not stage Cup parade

No bus ride for Jose Mourinho
Chelsea say logistical problems are behind their decision not to hold a victory parade to celebrate their FA Cup final win over Manchester United.

A Chelsea spokesman said: "Our preferred date for a victory parade was Sunday 20 May.

"But due to logistical problems of organising it at short notice and the costs involved it wasn't achievable."

The Blues also say any plans they may have had were hampered by several players called to international duty.

Another age old tradition broke. Why couldn't they just wait a few weeks lol.

plus the money issue. Chelsea=one of if not the richest club in the world. Sort it out.

please wait...

Another? So your implying we already broke an existing tradition, what might that be?

If you read the article you would understand why they're not parading around London, it has very little do with money.

Sour lemons over the league cup perhaps?

It's because they know they have nothing to celebrate.

I hardly think Abramovich is drinking champagne after spending another wad of cash last season and still failed to get what he wants.

i would have liked to win the League cup sure but at the end of the day we didn't. Our reserve squad did well against your Big guns and all the Arsenal supporters i'm sure of how we handled a full Chelsea squad.

Re: Chelsea not going to parade their F.A cup.

hes not using that as an excuse, it doesnt even sound like it was used as an excuse so where you got that from god only knows.

he was saying that even the little inexperienced could of kicked your ass if things had gone the other way, thats not an excuse, its fighting talk
