This New Chelsea Owner

I know it’s now forbidden, but this 8 years contract stunt with spreading the cost over an 8 year period is in itself destructive.

In 2030, probably long after Caicedo stopped playing for them, they’d have to deduct around 15M from their transfer budget because of that transfer back in 2023. We have a saying where I live ”pissing in your pants to keep warm”. That’s exactly what they’re doing.

It’s not impossible, I’d even say probable, Chelsea won’t be a PL team 5 years from now.

 

 

And for the rest of the league it creates inflation in the transfer market, where clubs are expecting fucking mental money because Chelsea reinvented the rules.

Absolutely right.

 

The positive is that the more the pay the deeper they dig their own grave.

 

Makes me wonder if we actually did compete for Caicedo or we just had  bit of fun with Boehly.

i never took our bid seriously. the lad didn't want to come here. we knew that when we bid. brighton knew that when we bid, but accepted our bid anyway. brighton claimed they ran an auction, but allowed chelsea as long as they needed to raise a bid which they'd already lost because the auction was over. the whole thing was a pantomime and ultimately it made chelsea go from 80m to almost 120m in a week and made a load of our fans think we were willing to pay 111m for a player who was never coming here.

Maybe he shouldn't have signed a massively long contract.

And can you imagine Barca paying the 100m to buy him and the wages he earns over there.

All is not well with the Kings Rd cunts. 
 

Boehly and Eghbali have had a massive falling out. Eghbali was initially happy for Boehly to be the face of the club and manage the day to day running of it. 
 

However Eghbali has become increasingly frustrated with Boehly’s leadership and the clubs performance both on and off the pitch. 
 

It had got to the point where Boehly had wanted to sack Poch but Eghbali was refusing to.
 

Then Boehly finds out Pochettino’s agent was sounding out united so didn’t want him getting a pay off from them and united getting him for free so decided against firing him. 

 

But Eggbali who initially didn’t want to sack Poch because he doesn’t trust Boehly’s judgement changed his mind when Boehly changed his. 
 

There’s been a massive falling out between the two, the atmosphere at the club is toxic and Eghbali has pulled rank. 
 

Boehly is being removed as Chairman and Eghbali will be choosing his successor and making all the calls as the leading shareholder. 
 

The best bit of all though is Boehly has thrown his toys out the pram and threatened to sell up believing he knows how ‘premium sports ventures’ work and the other guy just does maths. 

 

However, neither Boehly or Clearlake can sell their shares without the approval of the other and Egubali is refusing to approve any sale until the club is valued where he wants it. 
 

He’s basically told Boehly to fuck off and shut up, I’m in charge and you can’t do fuck all or leave until I say so.

Sounds brilliant - is there a source for this?

Yes. 

[Anubis]

If Eghbali is looking for a replacement ‘yes man’ chairman I’ll do it for two-thirds of what Boehly’s getting per year.

What’s that meant to imply? 
 

Their personal wealth has nothing to do with how much of Chelsea they own.

At this point I'm just eager to see how it ends, if Chelsea fans aren't careful the club will be hollowed out and left owning nothing.

They'll be bailed out by the Tory government again.

They'll end up in the third division rioting through the likes of Blackpool or Grimsby or Scunthorpe town centres again.

They will probably sell Todd Boehly for £500m to balance the books.
