Well isn’t that a proper cnuts trick.
To keep "sporting integrity"?
They need to just get on with it, it isn't Middlesbrough's concern that they're not allowed to sell tickets
I'm not sold on this guy. Everything I hear about him seems to be negative. It feels crazy to say but my preference out of the prospective buyers that we know of is the Boehly-Wyss-Goldstein group.
But I guess we won't truly know what any owner is like until they become the owner and we see him in action. Until then it's just words and reports.

A golden opportunity to change their match entrance to "I taste just like candy"
What's the problem with having 3k or whatever Boro fans in the gound. Yeah it'll be weird to just have away fans in the ground but it is what it is.
Chelsea talking about sporting integrity after the last 20 years of Abramovich blood money is a laugh.
They really are a minging club, the fact they've used the word integrity is hilarious talk about zero self awareness. Why should boro fans suffer because they got into bed with a crook.
Will the season ticket holders still go?
It's a cup game which isn't included in a season ticket.
Oohhh
Genuinely amazed that Chelsea FC had the audacity to make that request. The knives are out for the club as it is - they would be well-advised not to act in such a tone deaf manner.
The game is at the Riverside, not Stamford Bridge.
Keep smoking that copium man. Hope it makes you feel better when daddy Roman is gone
which makes their request even worse.
I just know him as Mr Holly Valance.
What? That's absurd
Shows I don't pay much attention to games beyond this upcoming week. But yeah, that's even worse.
Presumably the issue is that they only managed to sell a small % of those tickets before the sanctions arrived?
Either way, it's a laughable request.

Imagine reading that as a match going Middlesbrough fan. You’d be fuming.
It just shows that most people at that club are morally corrupt, not just Abramovich.
Integrity
feck it.
Candyman, Candyman, Candyman.
Make it stop, someone!

'For matters of sporting integrity'
Why can’t they give tickets away?
Alright let's calm down
Help us with your perspective on this please. I fail to see how anyone at Chelsea thought that this will be seen as a wise move.
It's not a wise move. It's a tone deaf decision.
Can't wait for @Rajiztar 's take on this one. Gonna be pure gold.
Imagine rashford and lingard having to take the bus, they'd be throwing their toys out of the pram.
Yea they should be allowed to give them away to kids/families or something like that. Fans that might not normally be able to afford it
What dos this even mean??!
They would throw a fit, like a baby throwing their toys out of a carriage to get attention.
Assume it falls under their broad thing about promotion/merchandise?
Have Chelsea….managed to somehow allow the British government to gain the moral high ground for once in their lives. Fair going.
