Totally agree FB and I'm not sure calling someone a rent boy is homophobic it is after all a male prostitute. What I can't fathom out is the genesis of it we certainly weren't called rent boys until recently. If they're talking about pedo rings they were everywhere in the 70's and 80's and if there was one in Chelsea well someone should tell them we play at Fulham Broadway.

Think it was because Earls Court was where you used to pick up boys, as done by MPs , Judges etc. Iggy I can remember us being called that late 1970s, so it's been around for a while. Early 80s it was sprayed round the back of the Shed. Seems funny now !

I do remember the Earls Court thing lot of gay boozers round there in the 70's but I've never heard Chelsea fans being called rent boys till recently.
