May 26, 20224 yr Only approval now needed to be gained is from @Valerie In an unrelated matter this showed up at her door today:
May 26, 20224 yr I'm praying that we can still be competitive whilst being run properly. Cup wise the Roman era has been a massive success. However our league form in the last 15 years has been underwhelming given our spending power.

May 26, 20224 yr Well well, would you believe it? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/sportsnews/article-10856457/Chelsea-bizarrely-awarded-worlds-Football-Club-BEST-REPUTATION-promoting-PEACE.html Typical of the Daily Fail to insert the word ‘bizarrely’. They really are a scum newspaper and I bet they hated publishing that.
May 26, 20224 yr When is the megastore re-opening and when are we getting a sponsor; I want my official Drinkwater shirt next season!

May 26, 20224 yr Apparently this means it's a done deal. As I'm not an expert, I can only hope it's true. Edited May 26, 20224 yr by TokyoBlue

So not sure why that document would be for Chelsea FC plc only. Plus I’m not sure what the amounts are about, if ~3m shares are sold at £0.01, how come the amount paid is ~£61m?
May 26, 20224 yr Government have confirmed once the sale is offical all the sanctions will be immediately lifed. Also apparently Todd Boehly will personally oversea and be in charge of our transfers this summer: https://weaintgotnohistory.sbnation.com/2022/5/26/23143154/todd-boehly-will-personally-oversee-chelsea-transfer-drive-report

May 26, 20224 yr Waiting to see how transparent the lump sum is confirmed and where it is spent in regards to helping those affected by the war in Ukraine. Also don’t want to see the government taking credit for the money becoming available.

They really are a scum newspaper and I bet they hated publishing that. This will have rival fans spitting their dummy's out! Once you clear away the various opinion pieces and general jealousy, Chelsea football club has been pushing the boundaries on all fronts. As well as the men's team winning every available trophy at this level, the Women's team has dominated domestically (and runners up in the 2021 Women's Champions League) and the academy teams have won domestic and UEFA's Youth League twice. Only Barcelona is up at this level as a club. Add on to that the community work, especially the way the club reacted to COVID with the use of the hotel for NHS staff. Also no attempt to abuse the furlough scheme (like Liverpool), and no laying off of staff (like Arsenal). We also pay a living wage which is higher than the minimum wage. This award is no fluke. Don't forget we also won the Ballon d'Or "Club of the Year" at the end of 2021. Edited May 27, 20224 yr by TokyoBlue
