Chelsea could reportedly lose around £300m and remain compliant with Premier League regulations.

This follows the sale of their women's team to parent company BlueCo for £198.7m, with the change of ownership confirmed just two days before the deadline to register finances for the 2023-24 season.

The Premier League's 20 clubs opted not to close a loophole allowing teams to generate income by selling assets to sister companies, with the Blues already registering the sale of two hotels to an affiliate company for £76.5m.

Revealed: How Chelsea are funding their latest transfer splurge

Fans many have queried another large spend from the club, amid an increased focus on profit and sustainability rules (PSR) and the £1.3billion forked out on transfers since 2022.

In that case, we can sell the hotel, the Academy, the training pItches and the Joie Stadium to CFG.

Johnny Fucking Evans has announced his retirement and taken up a new role with the rags as "head of loans and pathways"

Presumably this is a dual role for dear JFE with responsibility for both securing new loans for the scum from ocean finance and also tending to the upkeep of the pedestrian routes around old toilet.

To be fair to the old fellow, he's always been at the bottom end of my "who to hate at the swamp today" list as he's been inoffensive and relatively well behaved over the years.

In other words, they're prepping him for caretaker when Amorim walks ...

Another example of the fact that they have no idea how to structure the management roles. Until they get that sorted they will remain useless.
 
I tried to "change my mood music" after the disappointment overnight by reading the MEN's attempt to encourage/delude raggies by picking the rag eleven which COULD take the field "when the deals for Mbuemo and Watkins are completed. I say COULD because by the time the deal is agreed all eleven will have long since retired. That's before we consider what division they might be in.

The problem with this strategy is that it's not sustainable. You can only sell an asset once, and only as many assets that you own. So once the hotels, women's team, stadium rights, etc. have gone, if you're not generating prize money or profits on player sales, then you are royally fucked.

It doesn't seem to matter to American owners like Todd Boehly and his ilk. They just want to turn a quick profit, sell up and be on their way.

They don't care about the club, what state they leave it in and they care even less about whether it's sustainable. You don't have to look any further than the Glaziers to see the blueprint for failure.

Yet according to the British media it's the owners from the Middle East that are ruining football.

Yeah, right!
