Well he (and I) are correct.

If you say so, what do you class as tradition.
We've done a christmas quiz every christmas for the last 10 years. It's tradition now.
Chelsea had record breaking attendances in the 30's. Is that counted as traditional? or is that too far back.
What about winning a european cup before liverpool?
So it's not the last 30 years. What's the sweet spot? from the 70's to 90's?

If you wrote a thread, admittedly a small dip test on here, and asked which are traditionally the big football clubs I am almost certain no-one, even Chelsea fans, would write Chelsea and tye reason for that is because they're not.
It's not even up for debate really but feel free to try.

When I could attend games it was more like pub, train, pub, ground, pub, train, pub, home.
It is more to do with when the term was first really coined, plus the influence they had in creating the Premier League and changing English football. Chelsea are seen as benefactors of that.
With their lottery win, Chelsea would've eventually gone the same way as Leeds, as their business model before Abramovich depended on CL football, much like Leeds' did.
We would have eventually displaced them in the top 4 at around 2005 when we just missed out to Arsenal, as Chelsea wouldn't have been able to sign all the players that they did sign.
Therefore chelsea's current position feels like things are finally back to normal.
It's so funny seeing Chelsea fans cry about Boehly's ownership. Facts is that Chelsea are back in the real world where owners have to gamble one way or another to get ahead.

This is fantastic.

Maybe he should challenge Boehly to a game instead. If he still loses then just retire
