Four Strasbourg ultra groups will be joining Chelsea fans in a March against their BlueCo owners.
Ultra Boys 90, Kop Ciel et Blanc, the RCS Supporters’ Federation and the Parisian section of Racing fans announced they will be sending 2000 fans to the English capital.
They will be joining a number of Chelsea fan groups in on April 18th before the Premier League match against Manchester United.
One of those, NotAProjectCFC, announced the collaboration in a statement.
They wrote: “We are proud to announce joint protest action in unison with four supporter groups representing more than 2,000 fans of Racing Club de Strasbourg ahead of Chelsea’s match at home to Manchester United on Saturday, 18 April.
“As a result of the continued erosion of values at both football clubs, we have decided to come together to take action with one clear, unified message: Blueco Out
“Members of Ultra Boys 90, Kop Ciel et Blanc, Fédération des supporters du RCS and Pariser section have kindly agreed to fly over to London and walk in unison with us on a protest march towards Stamford Bridge ahead of the match.
“Supporters of both clubs are invited to join us on this march. We plan to shine a light on not only the incompetence and mismanagement at Chelsea Football Club, but also the restrictions implemented by multi-club ownership, where clubs like RC Strasbourg are being stripped of their identities, and where longstanding and respected fan groups are being censored and repressed by a brutal ownership.
“We believe this could be a seismic moment in the history of football, where fans of clubs from separate countries will come together to do what is right not only for our clubs individually, but for the sport more widely.
“Together, we can force change.”
BlueCo was founded in 2022 when the Todd Boehly-fronted Clearlake Capital purchased Chelsea football club.
A year later they added Strasbourg to their stable and the club have increasingly been used as a feader team.
Most recently head coach Liam Rosenior swapped France for England, and has since taken one of Strasbourg’s key players with him – Mamadou Sarr.
