Personally I think Chelsea should face automatic relegation as punishment. This view has nothing to do with Everton needing all the help we can get to stay up

I think they should send them down along side the bottom 3?

Let's face it, any club that is owned by multi millionaires or billionaires are not exactly going to be all above board in their business dealings and how they acquired their wealth.

Even the used car salesmen owners/Chairmen of the 70s and 80s weren't squeaky clean!!!

Riiiight. So everyone who has made themselves wealthy is bent?

Unfortunately the Governmemts decision to seize all assets is concerning because to do this they must have enough evidence to suggest RA is a close associate of Putin.

Assuming they have, i wonder what else theyve got on him or missed since he's been here.

It's really sad when somebody takes such relish in the misfortune of others, and says a lot about their small mindedness

Misfortune of others now that’s interesting, the way I see it is that it’s the Russian people that are have have lost out because of one of their own countryman has taken billions out of their country and spent it on a football club in a foreign land.


I have no sympathy for Chelsea FC or their fans they are not the misfortune in my opinion.

Believe it or not I would not like to see the demise of Chelsea FC but I hope the club comes out of this a better managed club in the future.

What do you think of your owners issues in regards Argentina?

I did wonder when you would dig up some dirt on Spurs?

That’s a interesting read and I’ve never heard of that news outlet.

I’ll look more into it, but it sounds as corrupt as Abramovich if true.

That would certainly put me off supporting the club, as I say if it’s true and knowing about the money men it wouldn’t surprise me if it was.

think west ham will take 1-0 still in the tie and could have been worse, if they get bowen and rice fully fit will fancy theyve still every chance, esp with no away goals rule

Rice was fit for this one

We played well. Missed a free header well straight at keeper

Was a good game

That's not what you said in your previous posts though is it? And if you really believed that surely you would be in favour of a quick sale to someone like Nick Candy to enable that to happen.

You can prob dig up dirt on multiple club owners

Whilst there will no doubt be skeletons in Abramovich closet and he gained Wealth through ill means - I would have to say he doesn’t appear to support the actions going on in Ukraine and he does have an attachment to the club and that’s why the fans will be disappointed about it all

imo the owners of City and Newcastle will always be the ones with zero morals - sport washing , human rights and of course the way with Yemen

That’s exactly the way I think but put more succinctly than I ever could.

if only the off field stuff was easy as Norwich away.............

There was 2 smileys after that quote , it was perhaps a bit crass, i don’t think a quick sale and all is forgotten would seem right to me.

Apparently only Chelsea's benefactor clearly. Is that better for you?

 

[Deleted member 1418]

Anyway the team representing a club that shortly won't exist is not doing too badly at the moment!

It would be a step in the "right direction" though.

If the Chelsea club shop is closed, where are they going to source all those plastic flags? ?
