'Out of touch' Ted Lasso producers and Chelsea owner Todd Boehly infuriate fans after a tribute to club legend Ray Wilkins, unveiled after he died in 2018, is doctored to celebrate character Roy Kent instead in hit show's new episode

Chelsea fans have slammed the producers of hit show Ted Lasso and Chelsea owner Todd Boehly after a tribute to club legend Ray Wilkins was doctored to celebrate character Roy Kent in it's latest episode.

Ted Lasso is a sports-comedy series where Lasso - an American coach - is recruited to manage fictional Premier League side AFC Richmond.

Now in its third series, the latest episode includes the return of Kent - modelled on former hard-hitting Man United star-turned pundit Roy Keane - to his former side Chelsea where he is viewed as a club legend.
