Chelsea in financial meltdown? 20:22 - May 28 with 5608 views

Ok, it’s a cheeky post title but read on dear reader.....

Abramovich missed the FA Cup final due to no longer having a Visa after the Govt clamped down on Russians following the diplomatic spat between the two countries.

The thing is if he can’t enter the U.K. and watch Chelsea in person is he gonna stay interested in continuing to fund Chelsea? One hopes not.

Even if he did sell up, they'll probably be snapped up by some Arab with even deeper pockets

A nice thought but shit never does and never has stuck to those cÃ¼nts. A few examples being:
1. The new stand they built that nearly and probably should have bankrupted them in the 70s
2. Probably hours from going bust in 1982 before Captain Birdseye turned up to bail them out and buy them for a quid
3. Us failing to beat them at home on Boxing Day 1982 which saved them ultimately from being relegated to the third division and probable oblivion, the next season they were champions
4. In 2003 when they were close to defaulting on a £75m loan and melt down with £96m of debt they qualified for the Champions League in the final game of the season thus ensuring survival and then Abramovich and his dirty money rode to the rescue
5. Probably the luckiest ever European Cup win in history which was followed by probably the shittest ever defence of the trophy which in turn landed them in the Europa League which they ended up winning thus becoming the first English team to win all three European trophies

I need a lie down....

Yeah but there's only one team that can win. 4 teams that can be "champions". At some point this all becomes bollocks if it hasn't already.

You never hear him speak. Apparently he has a squeaky high pitched voice; like a Russian Joe Pasquale I should imagine. Then again, he never makes an arse of himself on Twitter!
