Chelsea looking for investors to raise capital according to Bloomberg. In typical VC fashion Boehly has spunked his load and is now looking for more.

I think they asking price is deemed too high.

That source though

Nonsense sound bite, translates to we give them what they want. this is a fascinating one for me, Yee clear extremely talented and wants to play regularly, he’s not coming here to warm the bench.

This tweet is contradictory no?

I think he was always intended to be a steady Eddie stepping stone type player tbh.

He was excellent btw Silverstone that is. Only bone of contention I had was his FFP but I totally understand why he said that.

Good chance to upsell then to Hayden or Hendricks

He was/is Qatars chief cheerleader in the media funny how he’s changed his tune.

Annoys the fuck out of me, literally juicing was perfectly legal no worries until we want in and then it’s nope you’re not allowed. Tin pot clubs like Citeh and Chelsea juiced to the gills ne bother carry on.

I think most think Tonali can fill that role.

I expect they will go out on loan at the end of the window with us paying a % of the wages.

Going higher than our current offer, hmmm.

Arsenal extend with emirates @50m per year. We should have got more from Sela we need to stop being pussys and actually take the premier league to task.

Would also be good if they could give a live breakdown of the number of ballot entries per category for those who wish to hedge.

Fair play, reducing the price as well would be also be most welcome. Really positive news.

You wrote the “benefit” in your opening paragraph.

And this is why our thinking on the whole is incorrect, we are custodians for the next generation and we should all be encouraging and supporting the growth of the institution we all profess to love.

The current system can be workable in the short term with some changes. tickets are divided by price categories you ballot for the price category accordingly (no nasty surprises and you can plan your finances properly). I think these changes would be a decent start as well as a lower entry price, ( I think prices had to go up slightly but the hike seems unreasonable). longer term it’s clear the supply is the issue and we need to expand or build a new stadium asap (that is IF we care about these issues).

So with previous attendance used it because becomes a quasi season ticket no? having it tiered by cost stratifies it and would really price out a lot of people. I think I’ve been in Singapore too long, we ballot for houses here

I think this is only an issue because demand outstrips supply. Fix that issue and we can all go back to post gifs.

so your tiered membership idea is based upon your previous attendance or is it a different cost?

Couldn’t agree more regarding both the pricing and the lack of seat selection. So if another clubs fans were to buy membership on day one it’s alright? Again it’s not even a valid argument against an unlimited membership. Cmon Guv; be honest you don’t like unlimited membership because you think you will have a lesser chance of getting a ticket?

They could buy them before no? It’s just they were limited to those fans following the news of the launch period. Preventing fans of other clubs buying tickets is pretty much unenforceable and such a bizarre point to be frank (our fans can also do this). I think we need to encourage a broader base of support personably and especially encourage the next generation to attend rather than become say man city fans because they could never attend a game for us.

Why are unlimited membership a nightmare? I agree the benefits for membership aren’t good enough for those not attending so I won’t quibble that. I think fundamentally, any fan should have the opportunity to go however.
