Both!

 

But mainly Chelsea.

If you think this tory government will take a principled stand on this you’re living in cloud fucking cuckoo land.

I don’t think this will happen but I won’t shed any tears if they do…

One of the biggest clubs in the world. Thought this was about Chelsea?

[Bobby Hundreds]

A club made big because of loans from a Russian gangster who now wants his money back. You bought your trophies and the bill has arrived hope it ruins them.

 

More likely scenario a mega cunt like Jim Ratcliffe adjusts his bid with the money for Ukraine going to Abramovich instead. 

[lifetime fan]

The loan repayment will be ‘frozen’ in a government account for 18/24 months and then paid straight back to Abramovich.

 

Just after a long enough delay for the tories to not give a shit about the hypocrisy. 

[Numero Veinticinco]

I really, really want them to go out of business. The end.

I had some an outside chance of potentially some good news for you. 
 

You can fuck off now.

 

And I’m keeping your £30.

Hope the bloos are watching these developments with twitching arses.

He's not donating the proceeds of sale to his "anti-war" (note it's generic platitudes rather than specifically "anti-invasion-of-Ukraine" wording) foundation; he's donating anything left over. And he's "writing off" £1.5bn of loans rather than calling them in, but he's also valuing the club at £4bn when there's no way it's worth it; word is he's been offered £2.2bn in the past so that would seem to make the sums work. Whoever buys it will have to pay him a price that covers the value of the club and the value of the debt that he's written off.

 

He's saying he'll sell the club to anyone, and rather than be an ongoing creditor he'll work that debt into the club's value and sell for that inflated figure. That means he washes his hands of it, stashes the cash in a foundation and can siphon it off when the heat dies down. He's a fucking crook who robbed a load of natural resources using the pension fund, no way is he doing anything altruistic here, anything good is just PR to avoid the heat.

 

As for Chelsea - I can't see anyone underwriting them in the same way Abramovich did even if he'd stopped throwing silly cash around a few years ago. What's very interesting now is the forthcoming rules on squad sizes and loans, which they've used as a bit of a cash machine for a few years. If that dries up and the sugar daddy is no longer around, they're going to be in the same real world as the rest of us - one where you'd better keep being successful because if you stop the money slows down and so do you.

 

Fucking yes.

Evergreen post.

Yes, I never understood why it was assumed Abramovich had said he was walking away for nothing. Rich arseholes don't become rich arseholes by giving billions away.

It’ll be good for them to fuck off back to pre-financial doping days. I hope the do go bust. Could not give a shit about their cunt fans.

Fuck them, wherever they are

If it weren't for Russians, they'd be QPR

[Anubis]

Let us not be hasty. If Everton are the highest placed relegated team then we need Chelsea to still be in business otherwise the shite will get to keep their place.  However, if they survive, then bye bye Chelsea.

Hmmm. I can see your point. Flush the Bitters down the shitter first and then let Chelsea hobble on until the start of next season. Sounds fair.
