I know it’s complicated and that the Chelsea pitch owners own the freehold of the stadium but it only holds 40,000.

Newcastle, West Ham, Aston Villa and soon Everton will all have a bigger stadium. Chelsea are a massive club now and would probably fill 60,000 seater easy.

I saw something on Twitter where a supporters group insisted they stayed at SB but a lot of people accused them of holding the club back.

Is it possible to redevelop SB like they done with Anfield. West London is expensive I’m not sure Boehly could afford to buy the land around it.

    Chelsea already bought the land for the new stadium (literally right next to Stamford bridge).

    The plan is to demolish Stamford Bridge and basically turn it 90° with an expansion.

    Year or 2 of playing at Wembley (most likely) Wouldn’t be too bad for them. Probably only chance they’ll have at playing there.
