22A Posted July 22, 2014 Report Share Posted July 22, 2014 The Government has threatened not only the state of Russia with sanctions, but also individual politicians and wealthy oligarchs such as Roman Abramovitch if they are considered to be aiding the Ukranian separatists.Hmm; if RA's bank account was "frozen" will Chelsea fall into a financial black hole? Many blues fans reckon it's Roman's money that keeps the club going; gate receipts & shirt sponsorship ain't enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor10 Posted July 22, 2014 Report Share Posted July 22, 2014 As far as I'm aware when Abramovich completed his take over there was an initial clause with the club that meant they would not be saddled with any debt/financial difficulties should he ever leave. I'm not sure if this still applies or how such a procedure would work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pickle Rick Posted July 23, 2014 Report Share Posted July 23, 2014 Lets hope so, horrible club with horrible fans That's a bit of a broad statement. They've got fans from all over the world. Quite a label you've just stuck on their fan base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeh Posted July 23, 2014 Report Share Posted July 23, 2014 the govenment are going to stop people like Roman spending money here, its full of hypocrits, take us and france binging up about sanctions yet still selling russa weapons and france are still providing them with an aircraft carrier, Chelsea would have nothing to worry about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CITYAREREDANDWHITE Posted July 23, 2014 Report Share Posted July 23, 2014 Do you really think that roman ambrahomovic has all of his money in one Russian account, it's probably split up into different accounts from different countrys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Horse With No Name Posted July 23, 2014 Report Share Posted July 23, 2014 Many blues fans reckon it's Roman's money that keeps the club going; gate receipts & shirt sponsorship ain't enough. Don't you think that this describes us as well, although obviously on a much smaller scale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vile, clueless and proud to be associated with the NF traditions of Stamford Bridge. If there's one club in the world I hate on a par with Rovers, it's Chelsea. And a quick read through Paul Canoville's book reveals why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A club with a proud tradition of supporting the British Army with free tickets to games and then there is Chelsea FC's proud tradition of supporting the Chelsea pensioners.

Horrible racist club who were not content to belittle and abuse opposition players simply for being black, but turned on their own. Can't and won't see past that one I'm afraid.

'Orns Posted July 24, 2014 Report Share Posted July 24, 2014 Remember having a chat with a Chelsea fan once, his views of Tottenham were shocking, and I mean shocking. Not the usual fan banter, but real inbred hatred of the club because of the links with the local Jewish community Still, I guess that's ok too?

Bar BS3 Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 If he closes them down that would remove all there financial difficulties . NOOO! If Chelsea disappeared then that would leave a space within the football league that needed filling and you know exactly who would be at the front of the que for that place!

You spout more Cultural Marxist bullshit than the pro EU and pro Islam BBC propaganda news and views agency. The fact is that the owner of Chelsea - Roman Abramovich - is Jewish. I haven't heard any condemnation of Roman Abrmovich from the Chelsea faithful for being Jewish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
