[Football] Chelsea fire their head groundsman & assistant

[edna krabappel]

I wonder what Boehly's plans are for replacing them?

Chelsea part company with their head groundsman

Chelsea have parted company with long-serving head groundsman Jason Griffin plus his assistant and son Reisse. Griffin has been at Stamford Bridge for over 30 years.

Chelsea make £20m bid for Albion Head Groundsman and entire back room staff.

We sacked ours a few seasons back I seem to recall for leaking the team sheet.

 

[Barham's tash]

Think this might be to do with the number of injuries they’ve sustained this year.

Oh well, if we do lose groundstaff to Chelsea then I'm sure any replacements we get in will, once again, prove themselves capable of doing a much better job.

Bet they struggle at Chelsea. Grass isn't always greener...

Could be.

Still, harsh environment. Any head groundsman in the Premier League or Championship would be the best groundsman in the entire league in any other country (or at least that was the case before basically every big club in Europe found their own English pitch-lads).

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Probably just about the only postitions at Stamford Bridge that hadn't been filled by e\x Albion personnel.

Blimey, they've been turfed out.

Blimey, they've been turfed out.

Misconduct? Perhaps someone grassed them up.

More likely to be that their pitch is an absolute cabbage patch.

Their names will be mud now

 

[Worried Man Blues]

Chelsea can sod off!

 

[Rogero]

Shame ,they were down to earth guys.

 

[hart's shirt]

Not surprised.

As far as dominance in English football goes, this season Chelsea have clearly been re-seeding.

I thought they'd been weeded out.

Will be hard to replace. They don't grow on trees.

 

[schmunk]

Apparently they've no idea why they've been sacked - they're completely bamboozled.

 

[Brovion]

Seedy behaviour by Chelsea. Loyal staff just mown down.
