Actually if you've read a lot of my posts it's more clubs like Sheffield United I'm "in support off". It wasn't long ago Chelsea were in positions where the league finish decided our medium/long term future (mid 90s/2003) so for that reason I feel they deserve a chance to see through what could be club changing European income, possibly CL.Like a Dipper you're talking about probability rather than mathematical certainty. Trophies of all stripes should not be given out unless one team has unequivocally won it. For instance, give me one example one of a previous PL/Div 1/FA Cup/League Cup being decided by anything rather than a clear cut mathematical certainty?
Now, you can argue about exceptional circumstances and that is true. However, what the Dutch League has done is fairest as sport is so unpredictable.
Another thing, I am really surprised that you, as a Chelsea fan, have been so supportive of the Dippers. All the Chelsea fans I know hate them even more than the Utd fans I know, with one of my Chelsea friends, who has lost about 20% on the stock market because of CV, saying that the loss is worth taking if the Dippers do not get the title. I mean, I could get it if Chelsea were in trouble with a certain method being selected, but in any of these situations;
A) full void and using 2018/19 standings
B ) the dutch model
C) average point system
D) table as is.
Chelsea are in the CL regardless.
The Liverpool situation is not so much Liverpool per se, it's because I know there's a possibility Chelsea could be in this position sometime in life and I wouldn't want a void then so it would be quite hypocritical if I called for one now.
