Surely the government can let chelsea operate as normal but just prevent abramovic from accessing any finances. Chelsea fans upset at the unfairness in the way it's all ended for them should be reminded about the unfairness at the way it all began for them. 9

Nalis Posted 10 March 2022 Posted 10 March 2022 In the Abramovich area (19 years), they have won: 5 Premier Leagues 5 FA Cups 3 League Cups 2 Champions Leagues 2 Europa Leagues 1 Super Cup 1 Club World Cup 2 Community Shields Pretty impressive overall, don't think their fans can have too many complaints if this go south.

Spudulike Posted 10 March 2022 Posted 10 March 2022 Ben Chilwell has just been on the phone. Wants to know if he can come home.
coolhandfox Posted 10 March 2022 Posted 10 March 2022 All come back to the fit-and-proper Premier League owner test. Just because you have money doesn't mean you should be able to buy a football club in the UK 2
CrispinLA in Texas Posted 10 March 2022 Posted 10 March 2022 (edited) Looks like Rudiger won't have his salary increase he was desperate for, he'll start playing s*** now just like he did afew seasons ago. Chelsea will be in a state of shock now they can't off load their flops like Werner, Kepa, Pulisic, Lukaku and the other flops who can't get a game. Just loving it....they have to learn to live with what they got and won't be able to buy the latest 70m player from Europe because Daddy's can't give them his credit card anymore cos he's a crook 🤣 Edited 10 March 2022 by CrispinLA in Texas

Look at Derby, look at Bury, look at all clubs that have been in admin including us. It's not fans fault what happens with their club but something needs to be done to prevent it continuing. I'm just surprised it's took this long for people to clock on to it. 1

Chelsea fans can't decide who will take over their club now. My idea (though completely unrealistic) would be to give the fans a vote on who takes over a club, given them all the information (financial, social, legal etc) on the parties involved and they choose who they want in charge. If it then comes back to hit them, so be it, they've had their view.

I have friends who support Chelsea who are rational , sane, (stay with me) and in most other areas detest injustice and are massive critics of the Russian assault on Ukraine but are still of the view that poor Roman is being unfairly treated and the club unjustly punished because they fear the money tree will die. 1
Livid Posted 10 March 2022 Posted 10 March 2022 There has to be a way round the away fans thing both at Chelsea and the clubs they play away. The ticket sales for games at Stamford Bridge being sold by the visiting team and funds going straight into a Ukrainian Relief Fund maybe. A bit more complicated for the home team to sell tickets to away fans. 1
J. James Posted 10 March 2022 Posted 10 March 2022 Expenses for players and staff travelling to away games is capped at 20k now. Just seen the players accommodation for the Middlesbrough game, sadly the Lille trip wont be so luxurious ... 😐 2

It states that no money can be made by Chelsea under the current sanctions put in place by the Government who would have crossed every T and dotted every I, as Abramovich will no doubt have the best lawyers available with his deep pockets ! So not a ticket or Prawn sandwich is able to be sold that could benefit Abramovich’s Pockets otherwise it would contravene any financial sanctions put in place ! Be interesting to see what happens regarding this towards the start of next season with many assets being frozen and siezed from the Oligarch’s ! Theoretically Chelsea could end up being frozen out of further Premier League and European competitions players could see out their contracts or have them bull and voided because of this sanction and walk away from Chelsea? https://www.skysports.com/share/12562138 Edited 10 March 2022 by justfoxes
st albans fox Posted 10 March 2022 Posted 10 March 2022 I presume there are lovely people on Twitter who have pointed out to Chelsea fans that their success post Ken bates is down to the finances of RA and these have now been proven to be closely related to his relationship with putin. they can’t celebrate all the titles and cups and now complain that the govt have pulled the rug from under their club. it’s fanciful to think that the club won’t be sold fairly swiftly - distressed assets always find a home without too much delay …..
Spudulike Posted 10 March 2022 Posted 10 March 2022 Mike Ashley will probably buy it and they can return to their historically rightful position of being a yo-yo club. All trophies won during the RA era should have an asterix to record they were won with dirty Russian money. 1 2

His contract is up in June so it means he'll probably get an even bigger pay rise thanks to other clubs being able to sign him on a free. 1
rachhere Posted 10 March 2022 Posted 10 March 2022 Presumably this means they won't be able to secure loan deals for players as well? Their training facilities are going to be bursting at the seams!
