Chelsea's owner sponsors reportedly appear to be fed up of the club's defensive football and have trolled the club on Twitter because of the 'boring' football.
Chelsea's official betting partner Coral reportedly posted picture showing a new version of the club's badge, which features a bus instead of a lion to hint at the classic 'parking the bus' tactics, on Twitter, Metro.co.uk reported.
However, Chelsea fans reportedly did not like the tweet and some said that the team should cut their links with Coral, who then went on to speedily delete the tweet.
