Hello Mrs Mikel, hope you're keeping well.
Chelsea announce a profit in the year ending June 2012, marking the first profit made in the Abramovich era.

Wow. So Peter Kenyon's vision from 2008 has been finally realized. Good for you, I guess.
Some observations
1. This does not include costs of players bought this summer (Oscar, Hazard, Azpi, Moses, Marin).
2. The news reports about Chelsea not having to pay any compensation were probably correct if one goes by these profit figures.
3. Winning the Cl must have gone a long way in turning 67mn loss to 1.5 million profit.
Chelsea expected to turn in a profit earlier but realized they had to spend to keep up and did so, which is probably the best move they have made since hiring Mourinho as players like Hazard and Oscar have transformed them.
Be interesting to see if they announce a profit next season, Champions League revenue vs. a lot spent on players.

A lot has been spent but a lot has also been liberated in wages. Hazard, Oscar and Mata are not earning anywhere near what players like Drogba, Ballack, Carvalho, Anelka and other old names were earning. Torres, Terry, Lampard and Cole are really the only bloated wage packets we have left - which makes an enormous difference.LoveCity said:Chelsea expected to turn in a profit earlier but realized they had to spend to keep up and did so, which is probably the best move they have made since hiring Mourinho as players like Hazard and Oscar have transformed them.

Torres will not remain on those wages or at the club at all for very long and the others are reaching retirement age. Despite what the media would have you believe, CFC has been pretty well run from an administrative and business standpoint and we're stabilising financially. Perhaps next year we'll make a loss again, but we're clearly moving in a very healthy direction and at a considerable speed. Roman has also wiped off a massive chunk of "debt" in equity which has freed us from considerable financial burden.
