VERY SAD News as An outraged letter from Ultra Boys 90, a supporter organisation of RC Strasbourg, has been sent to BlueCo, the owners of Chelsea, demanding that they hold an emergency meeting.
Chelsea’s owners, BlueCo, have received an irate letter from RC Strasbourg supporter club Ultra Boys 90, which has demanded an immediate meeting.
In May 2022, a partnership led by Todd Boehly, Clearlake Capital, Mark Walter, and Hansjorg Wyss took over Chelsea, succeeding Roman Abramovich.
BlueCo, which became majority shareholders of French club Strasbourg last year, now owns more than just the west Londoners.
Strasbourg fans have made no secret of their dislike for BlueCo, but they are becoming increasingly upset with the club’s new transfer policy.
BlueCo has followed in Chelsea’s footsteps, replacing several of Strasbourg’s veterans and seasoned stars in favour of youthful youngsters.
Top scorer Habib Diallo, top midfielder Jean-Ricner Bellegarde, and captain Matz Sels have all left, while BlueCo has made significant investments in young players such as Abakar Sylla, Emanuel Emegha, and Dilane Bakwa.
BlueCo also chosen to loan out two Chelsea youths to the Ligue 1 side, namely Andrey Santos and Angelo Gabriel, but Strasbourg is suffering in France’s top division, currently sitting 12th.

Ultra Boys 90, an RC Strasbourg supporter group, has recently produced a statement that reads: “They want to meet you,” as Marc Keller phrased it when he announced the club’s sale in June.
Months passed, and despite our reminders, none of BlueCo’s shareholders came to see us. We waited out of respect for Marc Keller, his contributions to the club over the last twelve years, and, most importantly, his faith in the incoming owners.
‘By the end of January, our tolerance had run out, so we requested a final meeting with the shareholders by the end of February.
‘Here we are in March, and we have yet to see anyone. So, it is the time to reflect on this new chapter in racing history.
“Racing is today nothing more than a financial asset held by an investment fund that also owns another football club. We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: Multiclub is destroying football, and we’re going to stop it!
‘Two transfer windows have passed, and all we can do is watch helplessly as our club loses all of its seasoned players. In favour of young, upcoming players.
‘It is clearly evident that BlueCo requires the recruiting of players aged 23 or younger.
‘We are not duped! No professional club can compete under these conditions.
‘Without balanced recruitment, the tens of millions invested in these young players will serve just the new owners’ interests rather than Racing’s.
‘That’s why we’re curious: what is BlueCo’s true intention for Racing?
‘With all of his knowledge and past triumphs at the club, how can Marc Keller silently support such a foolish sporting policy?
‘Although the conclusion of the season promises to be difficult from a sports standpoint, we would like to offer the squad of our complete support in their effort to stay up, on the condition that the players respect our shirt.’
