Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck writes open letter to fans condemning ‘unacceptable’ actions after anti-Semitic abuse
Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck has written a letter to supporters to criticise an ‘unpleasant but vocal’ section of the club’s fans following recent abusive and anti-Semitic incidents.There have been a series of controversies to tarnish the Blues in recent weeks, starting with the alleged racist abuse towards Manchester City’s Raheem Sterling, followed by reports of offensive chanting during the Europa League match with Vidi.2

Bruce Buck has written a letter to Chelsea supporters

Three supporters were also spoken to by police on the train for the same reason after the win over Brighton on Sunday.Earlier on Tuesday, Uefa announced it had commissioned an investigation into the alleged incident in Hungary.A statement by Buck on the club’s official website read: “After recent events, I wanted to take this opportunity to reach out to our community and fans to condemn the actions of a few mindless individuals at some of our recent matches. “These actions are unacceptable and unwelcome both in our club and in football.“A deeply unpleasant but vocal minority which refuses to join us in the 21st century has shamed the great majority of our decent, well-behaved fans. We have been carrying out our own investigations into these events while cooperating fully with authorities.“We have already suspended four individuals pending investigations and will continue to take the strongest possible action against anybody found to have been using discriminatory words or gestures, but we must all come together to stamp out these ugly scenes.2

Chelsea could face a part closure of Stamford Bridge for their next Europa League tie

“Over the past weeks, months and indeed years, I have spoken at length to various Chelsea fans and supporter groups, all of whom are in full agreement that the type of behaviour we have witnessed is wholly unacceptable, hurtful and does not represent the club or the overwhelming majority of those who follow our teams home and away.“The message from Mr Abramovich, our directors, our coaches, our players and our hundreds of staff is simple this is a club open to everybody. We are committed and determined to be a force for good and not a symbol of societys wider problems.’Buck had greeted supporters at the turnstiles before Sunday’s Premier League win at the Amex Stadium to warn them of their conduct and how to represent the club.
