Protests need to be in unison and have clear goals, Can owners/SDs turn things around? Pressure mounts universally, Gyokeres and Guehi a step in the right direction? Previewing Aston Villa, More...

Afternoon all,I’ve gone solo again as I enjoyed it so much last week and Jai is still going through it. He’ll be back next week.Points I covered here:* Planned protest - Made a mockery and laughing stock of Chelsea fans. Needs to be done in unison, needs some proper organisation across some polls, needs even like an independent fan board to head and organise it the right way with pro graphics etc. Does not need Racism, Xenophobia, fans bickering over the real reasons for the protests, and needs context and reason as to why it’s happening. The word ‘American’ or ‘Yanks’ should not feature in ANY promo material for it or by anyone protesting.* Going through the latest fan Polls on owners/SDs* Can SDs/Club turn things around? * New info, SDs are under some pressure after January window weakened the squad.* Viktor Gyokeres and Marc Guehi linked - is it briefings to calm fans down or are they genuine? Gyokeres 27 in June, Guehi 25 in July. Right step forward?* Villa vs Chelsea 5.30pm Saturday - Villa could go one point behind us. Looked good against Liverpool.Thanks for stopping by!Peace, Si.
