That's what you get, Jamie, for saying a guy that stamps people is a dirty player.
There must have been some communication breakdown at Banners'R'us. Chelsea deservedly claimed the Premier League title at Stamford Brodge this afternoon as they claimed another 1-0 win. The Blues faithful arrived early and in party mood. A couple of Chelsea supporters brought along an anti-Liverpool banner that first appeared during an away day trip to Upton Park, and West Ham, in March.

The banner depicts Diego Costa taking a chunk out of Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard, who happens to be wearing a 'Redknapp' jersey.
Jamie Redknapp played five seasons at Anfield and has been a vocal opponent of Costa's abrasive playing style, much to the chagrin of Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho.
The banner showed up at the Bridge, and was tied from the upper tier, much to the boisterous delight of the Chelsea fans.
There are some suggestions that it is a pure dig at Redknapp, the Sky Sports pundit, but the face looks a lot like the current Liverpool captain's.
