Tom Ricketts has reaffirmed his family's commitment to 'diversity and inclusion' at Chelsea should their takeover be successful amid a public protest at Stamford Bridge. Supporters demonstrated on Saturday afternoon ahead of the Blues' Premier League clash with Brentford.
Having clearly seen the protests, Tom Ricketts released a statement in response. He wrote: “Over the past fortnight, our bid team has met with several supporter groups to explain our vision for Chelsea Football Club. In those meetings, and by letter to all groups, we have shared a set of specific commitments we will make to fans, if our bid is successful.
“We believe these are far-reaching and certainly include an absolute commitment on part of the Ricketts Family and the bid team to put diversity and inclusion at the heart of the club.
