The club's crest has been changed several times in attempts to re-brand the club and modernise its image. The current crest, featuring a ceremonial lion rampant regardant holding a staff, is a modification of the one unveiled in the early 1950s.

The club has sustained the fifth highest average all-time attendance in English football. Their average home gate for the 2012–13 season was 41,462, the 6th best in the Premier League. Since July 2003, Chelsea have been owned by Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich.
