The tour focused on the business and operational aspects of the club with students learning about how much care and technology are put into keeping the pitch match perfect (\u00a31 million), and how much they pay for security and to have the surrounding roads closed on match days (\u00a3250 000).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #4d4d4d;\">A couple of brave boys took some questions in the press room and all enjoyed the view of the pitch from the Manager&#8217;s seat. The tour guides discussed the various sources of income for the clubs with the majority share being raised through broadcasting. This led to some heated discussion in lessons about whether players&#8217; pay should be based on the performance of the team. The highlight for me was our tour guide, Mario, who worked part time for Chelsea FC while completing a journalism course. His enthusiasm for football and knowledge about the game and the club certainly made the tour both interesting and fun.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #4d4d4d;\">A great day was had by all.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #4d4d4d;\">Ms Williams<\/span><\/p>\n\n        <\/div>\n\n        \n    <\/div>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":9193,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.7 -
