Limited to £20k for travel purposes for away games, that's for the playing squad and staff, Ryan Air?

I don't suppose they could even afford Dan Air on that.

Are they even allowed to sell players?

• No new player sales or purchases will be permitted under the licence, and discussions on new deals for players who are out of contract in the summer - such as men's team captain Cesar Azpilicueta - must go on hold

from what I've read, they aren't allowed to open the club shop or sell refreshments. Maybe it's just Jeremy Clarkson and his buddies in corporate that will be looked after.

If there’s no security you can bring your own food a booze, picnic in the stands :-)

So they can't sell tickets, but there doesn't seem to be anything stopping them from just giving out away tickets for their away games and give out tickets for home games to both non-season card holders and away fans

did i just hear right they cant sell tickets

...yes... but you will be able to buy a pie if you already have a ticket for a match!

It's not "the Russians", it's Putin.

"The Russians" are protesting in the streets against the invasion despite facing years in prison for doing so.

Not seen Abramovich joining in the protests.

Not all of them, some are showing support for the invasion. For example, the gymnast with the z on his top, and the mothers and children lining up in the z shape at the nursery or wherever it was.

Polling in Russia shows substantial support for the invasion if not an overwhelming majority. Ok, polling in Russia is dubious but this is backed up by many anecdotal reports too.

when you are fed bull shit you start to believe it.

They won't be allowed to print tickets, they will only be allowed spend money on very specific items and that's it. I can see them playing plain home made kits by the end of the month when Nike do a runner.

So where would it flow to? That needs to be transparent.

Back to Abromovitch via back door routes.....mmmmmm wonder what on earth they might be.
