Whilst we keep our fingers crossed that we can get something out of the first leg tonight, let’s not forget exactly why the club are in the turmoil they are in. Yes Potter was a new manager hopelessly out of his depth, and yes Todd Boehly doesn’t seem to have a clue what he’s doing, but the current problems can all be traced back to one man, the charlatan Boris Johnson who forced Roman out, causing the chaos that followed. Without that Govt directive, we would never have had to suffer what we are going through now, and what has happened over recent times.
Transfer bans, no ticket sales etc and a huge black hole period of complete uncertainty surrounded the running of the club following the start of the war in Ukraine. Make no mistake, we’re still reeling from this decision to remove Roman from power. No other Premiership club has been affected in such a manner. There are many reasons why not to vote Tory at the next Election (their ruination of the economy by repeated lockdowns since March 2020 is the prime one), but their despicable treatment of Chelsea FC can be added to the list. 

By far the worst manager in the clubs history.
Potter will be known as the standard for bad managers at big clubs for years to come.
He makes Moyes look like Mourinho.

I've never wanted a Chelsea manager to be sacked as much as I do now. And I've been a supporter since the days of Hoddle.

Don't worry, Spurs and Arsenal fans, we can still f**k this up. Just believe!
 
 

Are Sarr and Christensen in on a match-fixing scheme or what?

What absolute tripe.
FYI, fans don't actually change clubs based on who is winning. It's a myth. Fans are created but rarely lost. I'm talking about domestic fans here, I can't speak for the twitter warriors overseas. 
There's no logic at all to think if we are bought, in probably the most expensive club purchase in the history of sport, our owners will allow our value to drop by turning us into a mid table club. 
Our foundations are incredibly solid as a club thanks to the academy which will continue to be prioritised by any owner (as it makes a significant profit). Our net spend in the last 10 years puts us not top 5, but 10th. Behind arsenal, villa, Milan, everton and all the expected big players. Our club has drifted in that aspect as investment has wained.
If anything, the new ownership will cement our status as global big club and the resulting investment will see us become the dominant London club for another decade or more. 

Lennon vs Mark David Chapman surely

The absolute bellend wants us to ignore the words of Ukrainian officials themselves acknowledging Abramovich's good intentions so that he can insist he knows better. He is sewage.

I have no idea and remain sceptical how much impact RA's intervention here will have on the situation, but I'd be willing to wager whatever he does will do more to help than Chris Bryant's self-aggrandising showboat routine ever will.

Brilliant post on the official site’s chat page. Full credit to Voltaire Returns.
The breaking news was announced just as I was going to sleep last night, and I'm certainly glad I slept on it. In all the years that Mr A has been in charge he / we have faced such a barrage of hate, hostility, ill will, animosity, and bitterness, all because we had an owner with money and upset the apple cart of the establishment of English and European football. The knives were out from day one.

And in all those 19 years, we have had and proven beyond doubt the best football club owner in the history of football, its rubbed noses in the dirt and had the vast majority of the witch hunting press stooping to below the gutter, and in all those years they could not find a thing against the man or us.

Now with a war which he has no connection to other than being of same birth nationality the same as the leader who has gone "full tonto" a witch hunt of epic proportions is underway. Gone and forgotten by many are all the substantial good and charitable works and efforts by a man who has donated more to good causes, charitable and anti semitic projects, here in the UK, Russia, Israel, Lithiuania and Portugal as well as setting up countless projects for integrating people who had historical differences and giving free accommodation to NHS staff to aid them doing their jobs with better efficiency during this recent pandemic..... There is no Russian alive who has devoted and given so much to charity.

Yes there are many casualties of war, many collateral damage too, all of us know that the Russian invasion of the Ukraine is wrong, however the utter drivel and hate directed at our club and Mr Amramovich is by people with agendas of their own. The garbage by the Welsh MP who was caught red handed scamming the tax payer on his expenses, should not be in Parliament but in jail for stealing our tax payers money.

Many of these ignorant agenda seeking monkeys, and their lack of intelligence and understanding, fail to grab the position of a man who can not comment for any words he might say that could be considered critical or offensive would put lives of family, friends and co-workers at risk back in Russia. This war is of a dictator who's lost the plot and is killing people who speak his own language and attacking his own family relations, this is not a war in the name of Russian people.

For one his brief statement, gives a clear indication of his love and respect for our club, in his own words he comments he is a custodian of Chelsea FC, and with its well being in mind he moved his involvement away so the club may not be penalized for something he and the club have not done anything wrong, but knows twisted minds will seek out any retrospective punishment as much driven by misunderstanding, bias and hate at our success as of any perceived against an idiot in Moscow.

As in the past there were many decent and good German's that could do very little against the rise of Hitler, but by birth everyone is tarred with the same brush, as in the same wonkey eyes of many today.. that we are still today responsible of the sins of our great grandfathers.... people being offended that were not born to be offended, by people who were not born to cause the pain of the past. Its not just Putin who has gone "full tonto".

Custodianship has been given to the clubs charity foundation to protect it from those that seek any random punishment at any target even if it has nothing remotely to do with the problem at hand.

We know we were always hated, that is part of life being a Chelsea fan, its got worse as we have got better and better. There is and was and will be no better owner of Chelsea FC than Mr Abamovich and for one I'll wait for however long it takes for him to come back home to the club where he is, respected, loved and wanted.
