TRO Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 I feel sorry for the genuine Chesea fans who tow the party line and just support the club.....There are some decent fans at Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers had to restart in the lower leagues because they were liquidated. Just so happens it's not that hard to get a few consecutive promotions in Scotland with a bit of money behind you. I don't think it would come to it anyway, but if it did it would be a completely different ball game for a team to get back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel the same with the prospect of any club going out of business TBH. Even local rivals, because simply football wouldn't be the same without those games. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Saudis are a murderous regime that has fought a proxy war in Yemen for 7 years and have decimated the country to rubble. It's the worst place on earth thanks to them.

Jealous of their money and ability to buy anyone within reason....We need to ignore that part, despite the fairness being questioned, being owned by a state in effect. Personally, I don't know enough about Saudi Arabia, other than they are a huge trading partner of ours....obviously endorsed by the UK Government. I don't doubt the merit of your claims, but where do you draw the line?.....China have human rights issues, how many chinese owners are there in British football? Chelsea have been wallowing in success, whilst Russia have been building arms for the inevitable day, and only now, are we apalled......Many countries with Billionaire owners of our football clubs have questionable motives. Its so very complicated to raise hard and fast opinions. I have huge sympathy with any repressed nation under attack, but invariably there are so many twists and turns to opinions.

Just because they have an unscrupulous owner, we have a government that he's had in his arse pocket for years, they should receive the full weight of the rules and regs. He's been allowed to launder money and buy trophies for nearly 20 years, strip the lot off him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
