Chelsea Thread - 2021/22

My biggest worry is that this could end up with a way for the 5th place club to get access to the champions league next season.

Wolves will have deserved it.

The allegations/statement is utterly damning.

In terms of Chelsea it makes a sale that more complicated. Sponsors will cancel?

is it not possible some rich billionaire will just step in and all goes back to normal for them ?

No, The sale cannot continue.
What’s the point of sanctions if it excludes Abramovich’s laundered £2 billion getting pocketed.

The problem is they could get it on the cheap with no debts to service, how would other teams feel about that?

Nice. for how long ?

If this goes fire sale you can imagine American hedge funds being all over it.

In the week or so this was being mooted I'm sure Abramovich has squirreled as much of his money somewhere safe.

ultimate glory hunter ? or another reason...

I used to like posing "darn the King's Road" back at the start of the 21st century!!!

With Ken Bates as its figurehead.

Not the proceeds of a sale he hasn’t.
