Chelsea savaged by Supporters' Trust for 'clear exploitation' of fans' loyalty over £75 ticket prices for Leeds clash that will mark return of spectators at Stamford Bridge after lockdown

Chelsea's plans for the return of supporters to Stamford Bridge next month have been criticised by a fans' group, which has labelled £75 ticket prices for the game against Leeds as a 'clear exploitation of supporter loyalty'.

With London put in tier two of the Government's regionalised approach to dealing with the coronavirus pandemic, the Blues will be able to welcome up to 2,000 spectators to their ground when the national lockdown ends on December 2.

Next Saturday's Premier League fixture against Leeds and the December 8 visit of Krasnodar in the Champions League are to be the subject of a ballot system, which has left the Chelsea Supporters Trust (CST) 'extremely disappointed'.
