EMBARRASSED Chelsea fans flooded out of Stamford Bridge in the 75th minute after being battered by Nottingham Forest.
The visitors chanted, “Is there a fire drill?” at the home supporters, who booed their team off at half-time once more.

And they have good reason to be frustrated.
Forest relentlessly mocked them from the first whistle, ridiculing Blues fans with chants of “Are you Tottenham in disguise?” and “You’re just a bus stop in Fulham.”
Well, actually, they might be Tottenham in disguise.
Since Thomas Frank was sacked by Spurs on February 11th, Chelsea have the lowest points tally of ANY team in the Premier League and would sit at the bottom of the table since that date.

Joao Pedro‘s disallowed goal in the 75th minute brought on a chorus of “We nearly scored” from the home fans, and groans filled the ground when nine minutes of injury time were announced.
Forest fans, obviously, retorted, “We want more,” and “Can we play you every week?”
In fact, when Joao Pedro scored a stunning bicycle kick in those nine minutes, half of the seats in Stamford Bridge were empty.
Before that late consolation, they hadn’t scored a Premier League goal since their 4-1 win over Aston Villa on the 4th March, and they hadn’t scored a league goal at home since their 1-1 draw with Burnley on the 21st February.

An almost-empty Stamford Bridge roared boos once more when the full-time whistle eventually went.
And it looks as though they will need a miracle to be playing in the Champions League next season.
