Well, at least we know where Chelsea fans stand on Graham Potter.
Over two hours before kick-off, the massed ranks of the Blues’ fanbase lined the street outside Stamford Bridge to provide their support for him and his side with their backs against the wall. Never mind Twitter keyboard warriors eating cornflakes at their mum’s.
When push came to shove, there were so many genuine supporters lining the Fulham Road the police had to form a cordon to keep them back. Inside the stadium, you could cut the tension with a knife, with both sets of fans well aware that Chelsea ’s season relied on this 90 minutes.
