The song is a well-known and offensive one that has been aimed at Chelsea and complaints were posted on social media as well as toanti-discrimination organisation Kick It Out.A Kick it Out spokesman said: “We’ve received reports of alleged homophobic chanting by Nottingham Forest supporters at Chelsea during today’s FA Cup fixture.“We have passed those onto The FA and offered our support in any possible investigation.Chelsea supporters have been accused of singing racist songs this season aimed at London rivals Tottenham, who they face on Tuesday night in the first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final tie – a game you can listen to live on talkSPORT.One Blues fan has also been banned from going to matches for three years for singing homophobic songs during their win over Brighton in December.Forest were contacted on Saturday night for a response.Alvaro Morata scored both goals as Chelsea reached the fourth round with ease in a game which also saw Cesc Fabregas miss a penalty on what is set to be his last game for the club.Fabregas issued a tearful ‘farewell’ after the game with a move to French side Monaco looking to be edging closer although no formal deal has been done yet.Fabregas salutes the Chelsea fans on what looks to be his final appearance for the club2

On the penalty, he said: “I saw the keeper going down in the middle of the run an I thought I had it. It was unfortunate.“The day I got 100 caps for Spain I also missed a penalty, so it was destiny.“The occasion got the better off me to be honest. I didnt expect any of this. I cannot really say anything out of respect for Chelsea.“Everyone knows the situation how it is we have to wait and see how it is.”
