Chelsea chairman Buck rattled by fans' abuse

Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck was shocked by the barracking of fans during the Capital One Cup defeat to Swansea City.

The Daily Mail says Chelsea's directors are beginning to feel the frustrations of the fans.

Just minutes before kick-off against Swansea, Buck was left shaken by the response of Chelsea supporters when he walked on to the pitch to present an award to Petr Cech.

He then made an awkward walk around the perimeter of the pitch, showered with abuse and chants of "There's only one Frank Lampard" as he made his way towards his seat, high up in the East Stand.

A week earlier, following Chelsea's embarrassing defeat at home to Harry Redknapp's QPR, a corporate supporter apparently gave chief executive Ron Gourlay a piece of his mind.
