Jose Mourinho was handed his P45 just 48 hours before the Blues hosted Sunderland at Stamford Bridge. I can assure you it was not a decision we took lightly.
Disney took steps to attract more women and girls to the series, including casting Ridley as the star and running commercials during shows such as Keeping Up with the Kardashians.
