It isn't a vocal minority?

It's an old chant, most of us realize it's not only old but dumb, inappropriate, offensive, and has no place at the club or among supporters.

But I'm also not naive enough to think that it doesn't exist. However, this only comes up when we are the away supporters (when we get far less seats). You do not hear that chant at Stamford Bridge anymore, because most people recognize it's bullshit. But when a small subset of fans get together at an away match, it occasionally comes up. See Morata, Alvaro chant from last season (which was at Leicester and was a variation).

PS - I'm surprised you didn't talk about the times that every other club makes Anti Semitic references to Tottenham fans. Chelski isn't alone. Wasn't Liverpool fans recently called out for using the y word?

PPS - how should we go about fixing this particular issue in English Football, not just Chelsea, but everywhere else it happens? I'd love to have a conversation about how we remove the Y word, and other racist and inappropriate behavior in English football? I think everyone, not just Chelsea, are doing everything they can, which includes banning the perpetrators when they do it.
