Chelsea Thread - 2021/22

As Chelsea face up to a trophyless future with no money to spend on transfers, football fans begin to wonder how long government sanctions have been in place at Tottenham.

Excellent. Take a bow.

Chris I would love to take credit but it was Have I Got News For You Twitter, couldn’t do the linky thing.

City must review how self-reliant the club operations are.

Why ?

Gobshite John Major's take should be interesting.

Seb Coe
Jeremy Clarkson

Hmmm

City must review how self-reliant the club operations are.

I can answer that in one word. Totally.

 

[Blue Mist]

Tell you what, the bots are strong in this one.
'Could effect City'
'Our owners (!!) need to be careful'
'If Mansour bombed Buckingham Palace'

OK I made the last one up but who lets these sad sack of shite robots post on here ?

Hope your right, but with cancel culture now reaching football clubs (and countries) as a whole I wouldn't be too certain about anything, rightly or wrongly. Depending on what actually happens with Chelsea, once that is through I can see the spotlight falling on us and the Saudis at Newcastle

I'm having difficulty understanding your post. First of all I'm not clear what "cancel culture" is and therefore what its relevance to our club and country is. Then you make the dire consequences of "the spotlight falling on us and the Saudis at Newcastle" dependent on "what actually happens with Chelsea". HM government has sanctioned the Russian oligarch, Roman Abramovich and the freezing of his assets has important consequences for Chelsea. We don't know exactly what these consequences are yet, but you need to explain why on earth this should lead to a "spotlight on City. Or do you think the PL is leading the fight against "dirty Russian money" in London? And that City's money is dirty and that this is a crusade against "oil money" in general?

Yeah, blimey!!

Watford are getting beat 3-0 and it's not even half time yet.

Why ?

Not everyone thinks that a person or a club should be considered as a unique entity, for all good or bad. If things can be done against Chelsea, arbitrary, sudden, and justified, things can also happen to City, sudden and unjustified.

Fuckinell I wanted to buy some Chelsea crested nappies and Chelsea crested hankies.
I presume they've all been snapped up from the Cockley mardarses?

@manimac I've got a 2008 Chelsea home shirt. You can have it for a tenner. Never worn I bought it just before City were taken over.

I find this topic very interesting to say the least. Being from the Middle East (born and raised - moved to US for college), It's always intriguing when it comes to the West moral compass - very, very selective.

It's the same all over, the Middle East is certainly no different

True enough, but your own moral compass didn't prevent you studying in the US?

Not trying to be funny, but I have always found the moral world compass has many contradictions.

Not really. A dictator is invading a neighbouring democratic country and and killing civilians.
Moral compass?
