Two wrongs don't make a right? We shouldn't have allowed Abramovich onto our shores and to do his sport washing. Same as those representing other murderous regimes who think they can literally throw billions at us to distract us. Our fit and proper persons test isn't worth a tap. But plenty of Brits have been saying this for years, so the line of "no public outcry against him" isn't quite right.
What we're doing now is the right thing. All Abramovich money is essentially Putin's. That's just how it is. We shouldn't have let ourselves get into this position, both in terms of dodgy football owners and generally cosying up to rich Russians who know that capitalist democracies can easily be undone by their own greed. The fact that we're now finally making a stand and pushing them back may not be a cause for celebration but it may hopefully be the first step in cleansing ourselves of their malign influence. |

I dont understand what point you are trying to make lurka
Gangsters, Banksters, Criminals and The Royal Family have been taking our pants down all this time and because one gets some rough justice life is so unfair? Poor Roman? Really? Do you think our Government, 14 of whom have received Russian Money and Doris in particular wanted to Sanction Roman Abramovic? What was our Governments initial response to Russia’s invasion? Less than F All! The people were disgusted and moved THIS Government to action. What can we do against Russia...F All. Sanctioning Abramovic sent a message to all the World that Putin could be got at. It showed the way. Do I think any Oligarch is going to say Oi Putin NO of rather be the first to say it? No but the question is now being whispered. Make no mistake there is now an opposition in Russia. Have you ever heard the phrase Perfidious Albion lurka? We are not whiter than white. |

I'm not sticking up for Roman. I'm saying sanctioning him is futile and has zero impact on Putin and what he does in Ukraine, sanctioning Russia is effective. Sanctioning Chelsea is ridiculous.
Sanctioning Roman because he has a minority stake in a company which supplied metals which 'may' have been used to make tanks months or years before an invasion is an unbelievable level of reaching and hypocrisy, like the UK is developing a conscience 15 years after the fact, using the most ridiculous reasoning to explain why it's only happening now and window dressing for the international community. Ripping off the Russian people and spending it in the UK for 15 years is fine tho. There is also no mention of where the money will go. It should only go to the Russian people, not Ukrainians or to the exchequer and the UK should not have any input into where it goes. |

This whole business of sanctioning Roman is cutting off the nose to spite the face.
Like this whole damnable war which is totally unnecessary. People die in Ukraine. Ordinary citizens in Europe, Uk and Russia will suffer economic desperation with a new energy crisis. This may be the point when the EPL will start to lose its position as the number 1 League in world football. Maybe the decision to ruin Chelsea FC, one of the leading lights could be looked back in years to come as shooting yourself in the foot. Lose Lose all round. |

Hardly, Chelsea will have new owners soon and the whole process begins again.
Look Abramovic was a great owner for Chelsea fans. I would not deny them that but so what. Get over it. The Queen takes tea with Maktoum and The House of Saud. We have to live with it. |

I dunno Whisp
See that tonight, think thats the end. Some Yankee doodle will take it over and run it like the Glazers do at Utd. I always remember Young Frank talking about how he never liked it when they changed managers at Stamford Bridge. Cos the next day at Cobham the Copter carrying Roman would be there. Roman and his heavies. A not so cryptic message to the players.. 'Okay youve had your fun, but trust me you dont want to be seeing me here again with my lads anytime soon...' |

Oh that Arsenal had owners like the Glasers!
I hope Chelski gets owners like the Kroenke’s. The Glasers have spent around a third of a £Billion on a leaky defence and a central defender who turns about as fast as the Titanic did. As for Abramovic and his heavies. Well you are only President for life. I am glad he sand his stolen money are gawn. Imho it’s a shame Toon are ‘t going down. It is their turn to bankrupt a few historic cubs who try to compete with their Blood Money. |

Rudiger's a (partial) victim in this isn't he? Basically Chelsea' embargo meant they couldn't offer him a proper deal at all (signing on fee, agent fees etc). They just couldn't do it, so he's had to look elsewhere. I mean, I think there was a very good chance he was going elsewhere anyway but at least he's got a bit of cover for doing so now.
Christensen supposed to be getting off too. |
