LONDON, Oct 30 (Reuters) - Chelsea supporters travelling to Wolverhampton Wanderers for the Premier League fixture on Christmas Eve will be offered free transport to and from the game, the London club said on Monday. "The club is aware that transport options are more limited than usual on this date, as it is a Sunday and also Christmas Eve," Chelsea said in a statement. "As a sign of appreciation for fans making this trip, Chelsea Football Club will be offering free travel as a goodwill gesture to anyone who purchases a ticket." The change of date to Christmas Eve was criticised by the club's fans who described it as "totally unacceptable". The Chelsea Supporters' Trust said match-going fans would face issues travelling to Wolves on a holiday weekend.

Jan 7 (Reuters) - England's Football Association (FA) will investigate alleged homophobic chanting during Everton's 3-1 FA Cup third round loss at Manchester United on Friday. Some supporters were heard using homophobic language against Everton manager Frank Lampard, who previously played for and managed Chelsea, British media reports said. In a statement to British media, United said, "homophobia, like all forms of discrimination, has no place in football. Manchester United is proud of our diverse fan base and the work we have done to reduce instances like we sadly heard today." "The club has a zero-tolerance policy on all forms of discrimination and welcomes the statements from The FA and Manchester United," Everton said in a statement to Reuters.
