    I very much doubt they will let Chelsea fail. Someone will get them on the cheap but I am not sure of the legalities. Possibly if Chelsea is sold then that money will be frozen until Roman is cleared.

    Maybe time for a German style top flight club in the UK. My mate (season ticket holder) just told me a few of the old guard are looking into how we the fans can buy the club.

    What, punishing the thieves who helped keep Putin in power in return for being able to steal billions from the Russian people?

    No. It's not.

    It seems a lot of Mr. Candy's early investments were bankrolled by dirty russian money from some oligarch or other.

    I wonder who that was?



    Billionaires interested in buying Chelsea Football Club have been told to approach the British government with potential takeover proposals, after the sanctioning of its current oligarch owner, Roman Abramovich.
    Fearing the threat of sanctions, Abramovich, 55, had been rushing to sell the club for more than Ł3bn, drawing interest from the British property magnate Nick Candy, the Swiss billionaire Hansjörg Wyss, the US private equity billionaire and Crystal Palace shareholder Josh Harris, and the American part-owner of the LA Dodgers Todd Boehly.
    However, the government on Thursday froze Abramovich’s UK assets, including Chelsea FC and a portfolio of luxury properties including a Ł150m mansion yards from Kensington Palace, west London, and a Ł30m three-storey penthouse overlooking Stamford Bridge.
    Abramovich was one of seven Russians with close links to Vladimir Putin that the British government added to the sanctions list in a move designed to dramatically increase pressure on the Kremlin over its invasion of Ukraine.
    “The blood of the Ukrainian people is on their hands,” Liz Truss, the British foreign secretary, said. “They should hang their heads in shame.”

    Three, the British telecoms company that is the team’s principal shirt sponsor, last night suspended its Ł40m-a-year partnership with the club.

    If he cared about the club and fans then he should have given it away when he had the chance for a token gesture of a Ł1.

    You mean killing thousands of civilians and bombing hospitals and maternity wards? Yes, that's a 'tad pathetic'.

    He is Jewish
    Well shalom. So is Zelensky, so is Roman Abramovich, so is the largest foreign funder of Azov Battalion (and Zelensky's illegal foreign slush fund see the Pandora papers), so was Marx, so was Trotsky- and so was Milton Friedman. So was Jack the Ripper, and so is Noam Chomsky. When you pull out these pathetic canards, it merely exposes the paucity of your argument. Hava Nagilah, , and 'ava bacon sarnie.

    Drawing conclusions was never his forté, more of a Backspit 'throw shit on the wall and hope it sticks' kind of guy . . .

    ^^ No, pathologist types sadly beat me to it. Being Jewish (or not) is not relevant PH- aren't you aware you are being sublimally racist here? No dated stereotypes please.
