Chelsea FC will offer £10 (approximately €12.4) train tickets for 14 of the team's 19 away games in Premier League in 2014-15, the club announced on 30/07/2014. The fixtures that will not be included in this offer are the away games played against other London-area clubs (Arsenal, Tottenham, Crystal Palace, West Ham and QPR).

This offer had already been in place for ten of the team's fixtures in the Premier League in the 2013-14 season. Aside from the trip subsidies, Chelsea will also offer £10 pricing on three of the Chelsea away games themselves in Premier League.
