Norwich City owner Delia Smith has revealed she booed Chelsea fans after they chanted Roman Abramovich’s name at Carrow Road.Chelsea defeated Norwich 3-1 on Thursday night hours after the west London club’s owner Abramovich had his assets frozen by the UK government for his alleged relationship with Vladimir Putin and the Kremlin.Blues fans controversially interrupted the minute’s applause in solidarity with Ukraine last Saturday against Burnley by singing Abramovich’s name, before doing the same during their visit to Norfolk on Thursday.And TV chef-turned-football club owner Smith made sure to join her fellow Norwich fans in booing the travelling support and enjoying anti-Abramovich chants.Smith told BBC Radio Four: “I was with our crowd and we were all booing at the top of our heads, including me.“They had a lovely little song the Norwich supporters called: ‘Where’s your dirty money gone?’“But it is interesting.

It has been going for nearly 20 years and it has taken a war for it to really come up to the surface.”Smith and her husband Michael Wynne-Jones have been Norwich’s majority shareholders since 1996.Do you think Abramovich's money changed football for the worse?
