Back then we ragged a lot on Marina's mistakes but that lady secured a 900M contract with Nike for a duration of 15 years in the midst of a poor season. Her CV began as a PA

These jokers who are billionaires with all sorts of connections can't even secure a FOS sponsor 3 years in.

So let's look at what BlueCo did to build us up to be stronger this season:

Sign a left back In Hato their manager does not trust and plays Cucurella in to the ground.

Do not provide a new centerback after we lose Levi.

Sign a back up for Caicedo who is, so far, as bad a crock as Lavia.

Instead of signing a much needed top left sided attacker they give us Garnacho.

Downgrade us from Madueke to Gittens.

Downgraded us from Jackson to Delap.

Replace a lazy player in Nkunku who does not fit in.. another lazy player in Joao Pedro who does not fit in.

I forget anyone?

I’m tired

As it's a dreary day, I had nothing better to do this morning than look up the front of shirt sponsorship situation in all the other clubs that comprise our top 5 leagues in our EFL pyramid - the PL, Championship, League One, League Two and the National League

Out of the 116 clubs there are only two that don't have a front of shirt sponsorship for 25/26. The other one apart from us is Port Vale, who have made a club decision not to have a front of shirt sponsor, as they are celebrating their 150th anniversary as a club, and as such have opted for a retro throw-back shirt this season to commemorate this ... with the front of shirt deliberately left blank. They do also have a back of shirt sponsor, as well as one for the sleeve.

So just the one club then that doesn't have a front of shirt sponsor due to a complete lack of competence in the executive team 🤠

What a lucky bunch of supporters we are to be in such capable hands LOL

Is this the 3rd or 2nd season we’re without one now?

Admittedly the FA/Government or whoever poo poo’d the Paramount deal that appeared to be decent for us, just seems like we’ve spat our dummy out since and expect ‘better’ than what was offered.

Surely taking a 30-40 deal for a single season the past few would’ve been better than hanging on for this multi year imaginary 60M+ a season that keeps getting thrown about?

Beggars Belief at times these drongos are at the peak of their business powers.

They must have had an inordinate amount of good luck to become billionaires in the first place. Actually, scrap that ... probably started with a trillion LOL

Even that was this mob's fault. The rules are clear as day, the PL's broadcaster gets to decide whether their competitors can also be sponsors. This reason is blindingly obvious from a business perspective. Paramount should have never been entertained as an option.

Spot on.

It's even more laughable that they immediately identified when they bought us that we were underperforming on so many things, one of which was on our " commercial" side of the business!!

And we’re still being told by their PR machine that the lines and accountability are clearer now. They must have very low standards because we’re still in limbo with the FOS sponsor and with regards to the new stadium.

What a great gesture by Port Vale though, fair play to them 👍

Tbf the first season without a sponsor couple with the actual nice looking retro inspired shirts got a lot of us scrambling to buy before they were ruined with a sponsor.

Since then we’ve learnt our lesson & the designs have been awful anyway.

Wasn't it mentioned at the end of last season how we were a season ahead of schedule by making top four?

Am I missing something???

How Chelsea's shirt will look with reported front-of-shirt sponsorship partner

The wait appears to be coming to an end.

Yes. And we only have 6 1/2 years or so of this before we can hope for a new owner. At this rate they might be capable of a reverse Wrexham

Lmao this club has become so corporate now, I don’t recognize my club

WLD BlueCo out.

f**king TWATS!!!

BlueCo are so incompetent at their 'data-driven approach' that they'll usher in a new age of romanticism.

They could have done something useful or funny with the money they for all intents and purposes stole like resurrecting Cole Porter or paying somebody to invent the jetpack.

I learned a new word recently, ensh*ttification. That perfectly sums up Chelsea football club under this ownership.

They ve won two trophies, secured extended contracts on their sporting directors, sit 5th in the premier league.

Its all going swimmingly well. You always get a bit of noise from customers, its par for the course. Relax.

I’m not bothered about the money they spent, albeit you look at our squad and wonder where the money actually went

I am mad at how they’ve lowered the standards across the club, and how unprofessional every department appears. The Roman days, and to some extent before, had a higher bar for players joining the club. Now they look pretty mediocre and accepting of it.

We need all the streamers to make this go viral and those at the ground to make a stand. This is it. Enough is enough.

4 years since they have taken over and we have gone backwards. Chance after chance in the summer to make things right and they've messed up worse than ever.
