Following the crowd trouble that marred Arsenal's FA Cup quarter-final victory over the Blues of London, 26 Chelsea supporters have been banned.
It would seem that Stamford Bridge is no stranger to crowd trouble. A water bottle was also reportedly thrown at striker Les Ferdinand during a Worthington Cup tie last year.
Coins were reportedly thrown at Arsenal striker Thierry Henry. The FA have also issued a statement saying that whilst they are impressed with the action taken by Chelsea, this is their final warning and charges may well have to be imposed if it ever happens again.
I'm wondering why weren't charges imposed now? Chelsea fans also reportedly threw a cigarette lighter at Henry at the match at Highbury.
