Abramovich

Celebrate with the players? He's a right John Terry isn't he!

Lots of questions on the sustainability of the club:

- So how does the club sell players?

- No new contracts so unless ownership is resolved in 3 months then the following players must leave: Aziluceuta, Rudiger, Niguez, Musonda, Christensen. Plus 6 of their U23s would have to leave.

- 21/22 season ticket sales? These would usually be available in a month, guessing they can't sell them

- Impact on P&S/FFP?

- How can the club be sold?

- If they take a 40 players and staff to Lille, how can they do that within the 20k allowance? That's a budget of 500 each. Might need to go on a coach, then that has problems as the travel time will ruin them for our game. shame

What a bloody shame 🤪
 
maybe, although most chelsea fans aren't from London anyway. They're all from the 'home counties', people from Bucks who want success instead of Watford and Wycombe, form the surrey commuter belts. From Berkshire who want a bit more glamour than the Madjeski stadium against Rotherham united.
Having lived in the Home Counties and worked in Lahndahn for a couple of decades, I can confirm this is spot on. Always used to wind up those Chelsea ‘fans’ by talking to them about their actual local team. Also tended to be the biggest ar5eholes.
 
There will be ways round all that I'm sure. Im guessing someone could pay for the travel bills etc personally? Say one of the directors / staff / players? They will get it back eventually!

I know RA was close to Putin hence this, but wonder what will happen to the likes of Bournemouth who also have Russian owners don't they?
Maxim Demin is Russian although apparently a British citizen.

a valid point. the owner is russian, but has had uk citizenship for a long time & spends his time between the uk & switzerland. not a lot is known about him in truth, but it seems he is not in the oligarch category, more of a successful "businessman". history is petro chemicals and banking. who knows what the truth is..... the natural tendency at the moment is to assume it's murky. would be nice to know. my mate used to be his chaffeur.... he certainly likes his alcohol & london drinking clubs......
 
The last 24 hours of the Abramovich thread on their forum is quite funny, yesterday they were listing potential billionaires to buy the club, and today, 😢😩😢😩

Just read this post on there:

"So the UK government will destroy an entire club from top to bottom because of 1 man. The tens of millions of supporters, the players, the staff, the coaches. All totally innocent and they get to watch as their club is destroyed."


or...

So the Russian goverment will destroy an entire country from top to bottom because of 1 man. The tens of missions of innocent civilians, the elderly, the disabled, the ill children. All totally innocent and they get to watch as their country is destroyed.

Which one are they more bothered about?
