A football club from
London (Chelsea)
England. The actual
name of the club is Chelsea Football Club (CFC) and the nickname is the "pensioners" or "The Blues"
As of 2005 Chelsea easily dominate almost every club in English football and Chelsea are in the top 10 clubs in the
world.
The club despite its huge
success also suffers from a great deal of negative press. This is a reflection of the pettiness that is commonly associated with the British people in general. It is of course a slight to the highly educated individuals from the island but a very common
reality all the same. The first person who posted about Chelsea is proof of that.
The entire negative atmoshpere surrounding the club is born of jealsouy due to a
rich Russia businessman buying the club and then spending a great deal of
money on the club. The fact that such a positve thing could happen to an English business (CFC), along with all the benefits to the various English leagues, and the people of Britain and the
British media could still react with such venom makes a very clear statement about those people not Chelsea football club.
All the same, the enthocentric behavior of the British people has caused several uncomfortable situations for the club. Much of this can be traced back to the fact that the media and the English FA are heavily invested in stocks in the historically powerful clubs in
England. Normally, these investors would simply move their stocks over to the "new" powerhouse club but in this instance Chelsea is a privately owned club so the investors in positions of power have reacted by trying to
set Chelsea up. Most of these attempts have failed and Chelsea have come out winners anyway.
This in part is due to the fact that
core of players for Chelsea are
British and were completely prepared for the juvenille reaction from the masses and also partially because the backroom staff were well aware of how the British people are so like
sheep they
will follow whatever the media states.
Example: The average British person believes that the United States has the highest instance of obesity despite the fact the BMA has publicly stated that Britian actually has the hightest rate of obesity and there has even been commericals released over the fact.
Result, the media makes something up to sell copy and the masses in Britain regurgitate it like parrots despite it being untrue.
Fact: the people of Britian are more obese than the people of the United States.
