Another American-owned Premier League club.

Wonderful!

 

[J.G.Blue.]

I dont really care who takes over at chelsea, I just hope they can celebrate it with a FA cup win.

Yep, worrying the US cartel is getting bigger and bigger.

The money is ridiculous 4.25 billion 2.5b to Ukraine charities and 1.75b for development of Chelsea ground and players youth team.


Can the new owners make chelsea a plc? That’s where the new owners will make a lot of money.

 

[plattlanebenches]

Another yank owner. 4 quarters and ad breaks on the horizon.

I don’t know. In some respects it is a negative thing like the moves for a European Super League. In other respects it is a positive thing like in their efforts to maximise profit they make their first team less competitive, thus playing into the hands of our model of ownership. The success of Liverpool is not down to their “net spend” owners that is for sure.

Cheerleaders, half time entertainment, national anthem sung by unknown opera singers, the first ball kicked by the nearest despited politician.

I have been worried about this for some time .
Rags,dippers,Arse,villa,Burnley not sure if any more now Chelsea.
If it gets to 14 clubs were fooked and ever new rule they will vote through.
Not a good future for the lower divisions.
But a guess this won't be a issue as the 2 Arabian owned clubs are ruining football.

Genuine question - is the 1.5 billion owed to Fordstam in the 2.5b to Ukraine or is the 4.25b jsut the price and Fordstam are toast?

 

[jim tolmies perm]

10 U.S owned clubs now
Sadly we're on the precipice of a full on American takeover of our national sport. That will spell the end for me

Not sure but didn’t Abramovich say he would write of the debt?

Well Burnley go down these one less and think Fulham and Bournemouth don’t have American owners.

I don’t understand why any businessman would spend 4 .25 billion on something that makes a loss, or at best a tiny profit. Where do they see any return or value in their investment. Newcastle at £300 mill with room to grow I can see. The only thing of real value is the land the ground stands on.
This to me makes no sense at all, then I’m not a billionaire.

Agree all I can think of is making chelsea a plc and they make a mass profit from selling the shares. Unless they looking 10/20 years down the line where football will be.

That's exactly what they are doing

The beginning of the end for Chelski I am afraid, the yanks have got it.

Let’s hope it’s not the end of the Top league in English football. I fear for the motives as a yank collective.

Another business targets over sporting achievements club now.

Can see the yank owners pushing for play offs after the league is decided.
