..your fans are shite.

All I care about right now is how shit their fans were and how good ours were in comparison. That's excactly what being a fan is all about as far as I am concerned.

So you might be able to buy a lot of things, including a team and a trophy but you certainly can't buy class or decent support Roman.

So feel free to post any clips showcasing how much we showed their fans what decent support consists of...

Afraid I didn't get any clips. I was too caught up in the match. I took around 30 photos pre-match, and during the opening 15 mins, then the camera went away and I sang until I was hoarse.

I can confirm however, that our fans sang the whole 90 minutes. From our end it seemed Chelsea fans only started singing at 2-0.

Disappointed but not disheartened. And proud of our support.

Fans 20/10

Well there are many factors at play

Their recent success has spoiled their fans to the extent where it was just another cup final to them - and not even a particularly important one compared to the others they've been involved in in recent times, where as to us it meant so much more because it is so rare that we get the chance to win silverware

Their recent success has also meant that they've accumulated a lot more plastic fans in recent years, prawn sandwich fans whatever you want to call them. Ones who lack the passion for the club but just want to tag on to its success, they;ve only supported the club since its been successful and they expect it rather than appreciate it plus they're not the type to express emotion over games anyway

Thirdly - even before the money came in their hardcore support were a classless bunch of a word that would get banned for saying on here.

Posted this in the match thread but I love it so much I'm gunna post again.

Freund walking up Wembley Way with the fans, singing songs, taking pictures with everyone and telling everyone to stop pushing and calm down when a girl wanted a picture with him, gent!

Apologies for the poor picture but as you can imagine there was quite a crowd around him singing and dancing so getting a decent picture proved difficult

Scummy horrible club, hate losing to them more than an other club. Another trophy for their anti football win at all costs mentality, they are welcome to it. Today reinforced why I wouldn't want to swap with them for any money.
Horrible from the heir achy down, with their unlimited resources they still play shit boring football.
Bitter? Am I fuck......

Everywhere we gooooooooo......

I was at the defeats to them in the semi and the Portsmouth semi too. The post match atmosphere among our fans wasn't good at all. This time it was very different.

The singing and camaraderie coming out of the ground and onto wembley way was something to behold for set of supporters who'd just lost a cup final to the most loathsome club in British football (yes, even after the goons).

Was great to see, cheered me up a bit.

The difference between our fans and their's is like night and day.

Was anyone shocked by what happened in Paris? Anyone?

Had that been our fans, I can honestly say I would have been shocked (and horrified). Although we have our fair share of morons as all clubs everywhere do.

Even in Club Wembley where it's supposed to be neutral and 50/50 our fans took over all of the bars and sang until all the Chelsea fans left, was absolutely fantastic, brilliant atmosphere.

I see a couple of sneaky buggers trying to sneak in amongst the spurs fans. I see the plonker Jack Wilshere on the left there (just above SF). Almost didn't recognise him without a cigarette in his mouth. And trying to get in under the radar on the right of the picture is Joe Jordon, I'm surprised he's not throwing punches,or more likely with Joe, headbutts at the jostling.

They had so few fans left (though they used to take 5,000 fascists and other dregs to wreck places like Shrewsbury market in the old Div 2, which they hark back to show they were a big club which they were til they got shit in the mid to late 70s) before Harding and Bates started living the dream a la Risdale at Leeds spending on so many world class players on the never never. Unlike Leeds, they were saved from going to a very well deserved and hard wall by a violent global super criminal.

I'll be checking the woodwork again in the next few weeks as more glory hunters and dregs in blue come out .

Football and supporting your club really isn't all about winning. Indeed over the years I used to follow Spurs all over the country it was about belonging to something deep and special and camaraderie and often wasn't about the football match either!! Maybe it's just me, but I find Chelsea's trophies hollow and their fans risible since the mid to late 90s.

The non-fascist old ones who were there when they were rubbish fine. So well done the 10,000.

That we rocked up to Wembley with 4-5 academy players and they had Hazard and Willian who were coming to us, and went toe to toe with them and still showed we were a bigger, real club all over the stadium was good.

You cannot buy what we have and we need to protect it or lose it too.

One way is not to be overly obsessed with the CL.

We needed to go all out to stay in the EL to win the thing not because it means CL football.

The one thing I hoped for after the game was over was that there wasn't any kind of meltdown amongst our fans.

Tell you what, I couldn't be more proud.

Of the club, the players, Pochettino and especially the fans. Everyone must've seen the videos of our fans singing their way out of wembley? It gives me goosebumps just thinking about it.

So, well done to you sirs and madams, you are a shining light of optimism on a rainy, unlucky Sunday but all that matters is that our club has now recovered from a sorry state to a truly outstanding position with a potentially glorious future ahead.

I do think a lot also comes down to the amount of success they have now. They expect to win everything with their team of expensive superstars. We've been through a lot as a club and I think even though we can be pessimistic at the best of times we still get together and support our club. A lot of Chelsea fans turn up expecting to win and don't have the same passion for the game that we have.

I hope everyone that who went yesterday had a memorable experience. I'm sure this team will bounce back from the result. Pochettino has made us a fighting club and hopefully our fans continue to get behind them. I really hope the Lane is rocking against Swansea because the players need us to show how proud we are of them.
