A PL owner, who we all knew was dodgy, being dodgy. Shocker.

 

Yet he continues to pass the ‘review’ of the O&D test each year, apparently.

These abramovic revelations are fucking appalling, like. Dirty as fuck. And not a single eyebrow is raised by the PL and their trough feeders

 

Are you off your trolley man? Chelsea are one of the England's blue chip clubs and as such one of the PL's prized assets. They would do their best to find some way of legitimising it rather than penalise Chelsea. It was Abramovich who raised their profile from a middling PL club to champions who are now a global brand.

If there is still something going on in the background with our takeover ( :dontknow: ), and if the lawyers are still involved, I hope they are looking for ways to use this Abramovich story to put some pressure on the PL

 

Lawyers aren't quick. They only confirmed involvement last week, so it'll be months before they say anything, if they do at all.

 

Abramovich stuff has no relevance to this at all, other than showing some of his more suspect activities to the public...and the lack of pick up and fanfare about it shows it won't be deeply or publicly probed

Even if they are, there is no evidence to say it's not just Ashley looking for compensation or suchlike. Staveley seems to have decided to go quiet now after giving daily updates to Caulkin for months. Maybe that's how things should have been done all along however.

Maybe it's Blackstone chambers going all Tyler Durden on the parties involved :lol: The first rule of takeover club is you do not talk about takeover club. The second rule of takeover club is you DO NOT TALK about takeover club.

 

Like you say though probably the way it should have been done in the first place.

On the contrary, it shows that abramovich has no regard for the rules of the premier league - https://www.premierleague.com/news/597665. Therefore, could he reasonably be described as fit and proper?

Yep, agree with you there. It has gone deathly silent since they came in, and you are spot on, it should have been like that from the start.

The cheek of Dicky Masters claiming the Governement’s plans to postpone crowds returning to PL fixtures is ‘harming clubs and their communities’

 

Meanwhile, he is directly harming our club and our community redevelopment.

of coarse they were going to release some kind of statement, they're losing a lot of money atm and want to get their customers fans back to start overcharging them again. Daniel Levy must be in a right panic, take out a big loan to pay for a fancy new stadium and no one can go in less than a year after it opens

Listened to parts 2 and 3 not interested in reliving the Ashley era, just basically regurgitating what we already know with some dramatic music in the background.

 

The only real opinion on where we’re currently at comes from Chris Waugh in part 2. He can’t see how it gets approved, but consortium still believe a compromise can be found and talks still in background.

Shame

 

 

For the PL :iamatwat:

 

 

I’m glad fans aren’t allowed.

 

1. Fucks the PL off.

2. Will make sure that Ashley actively tries to sell the club.

 

Downside is, other than the Saudis there is zero interest in the club and this won’t help with that.

 

I still find it hard to believe the PL are avoiding the Saudi billions that could potentially be invested via the club into the league, etc.
