Chelsea decides to cancel the end-of-season awards presentation, says "inappropriate"
Posted : 24 May 2023
Chelsea has opted to cancel its season-ending awards ceremony following a terrible season that would see them place in the bottom half of the standings.
The Blues are expected to end their most recent Premier League season outside of the top 10 with their lowest-ever divisional point tally.
Even if they win their next two games, they are now in 12th position with 43 points and will not be able to meet the 50-point threshold.
The London club hasn't been in the bottom half since the 1995–96, when Glenn Hoddle was their manager, and they took 11th place with 50 points.
Report claims that due to the men's team's shortcomings, club administrators have determined that holding an end-of-season awards ceremony would be "inappropriate."
Instead, prizes will be given out before the Blues' last home game against Newcastle on Sunday at Stamford Bridge for the male player of the season, academy player of the season, and goal of the season.
Since 2019, Chelsea has been unable to host the awards ceremony in person. Before fines against former owner Roman Abramovich and the ensuing change of ownership led the club to postpone the awards event last season, Covid-19 interrupted the next two years.
