Drogba has been banned for three games, and rightly so, since Anelka is in such good form, it may not be a problem. I think the ban itself was deserved, in as much he retaliated, but i do think the situation of fans throwing stuff at players and refs has gone too far. Something needs to be done about it. meanwhile Drogba and co,  need to rise above it, and get on with the game.

Thankfully Burnley have said they will work with Chelsea to find any fans involved in this incident. Maybe knowing your team will forfeit the match if coins or other missiles are thrown would help.

It'll probably only be 6-0 at the weekend now then instead of 7-0....















































To Newcastle of course

Agree - have a couple of Chelski fans at work. Livid. Being a gentleman on the pitch can only go so far.

Having said that, the guys tell me that throwing objects at a match used to be much worse between fans.

Darts, snooker balls, sharpened coins.......
