Let's go and pelt the gooners instead.

Its all about viewers and Man U versus anyone will get more viewers than Chelsea no matter who we play.

The TV companies care about how many people tune in to watch that is it bottom line.

its whats good for business...
UTD are box office.

maybe because you're a boring team to watch, just a thought...

Wow you must fall asleep watching dull as ditchwater Arsenal then.

The only reason to wake up is when Sanchez gets on the ball.

I don't know about dull as ditchwater superb. Some of our defending has me on the edge of my seat !!

Seriously I don't know what sort of viewing figures Chelsea get these days. Of course it depends on the opposition as well. I have a vague memory ( maybe to do with my age !!) of about 5 years ago, Chelsea being behind Man Utd, Liverpool and a couple of others in terms of figures, Arsenal and possibly Spurs, but that may have changed. Of course Man City come into the equation now

In terms of the UK, compared to the likes of United, Liverpool and Arsenal we have a smaller fan base.

That is unlikely to change anytime soon. But the good thing is outside of the UK we are very much in the category of "must show all Chelsea games on TV".
