The Russian Bloke at North Battersea on 10:34 - Mar 10 by SimonD | They are not allowed to sell any more tickets. According to the BBC feed, they have 28k season ticket holders (who can still go to matches) and a capacity of £41k. That is going to hurt. |
Especially when those season ticket holders can't renew. | | | |

The Russian Bloke at North Battersea on 10:46 - Mar 10 with 2788 views | DannyPaddox | “ Wanted in fourteen counties of this state, the condemned is found guilty of associating with a person who is or has been destabilising Ukraine and undermining and threatening the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine, namely Vladimir Putin. And contrary to the laws of decency, the condemned is further guilty of feathering the nests of John Terry, Frank Lampard, and Jose Bosingwa and generally promoting and financing the interests of the biggest bunch of cock-goblins professional football has ever seen. Therefore, according to the powers vested in us, we sentence the accused here before us, Roman Arkadyevich Abramovich, known as 'the prat', or any other aliases he might go by - to fcuk off from British Football for ever. May Chelsea plummet through the leagues accordingly. Proceed." | | | |

The Russian Bloke at North Battersea on 10:23 - Mar 10 by gobbles | If it is only Abramovich's money that is keeping Chelsea running, it will be interesting to see how that works out. After all, if our board are putting in £1m a month, what is Abramovich putting in? And presuming that he no longer can, how can they keep the doors open? |

The Russian Bloke at North Battersea on 10:48 - Mar 10 with 2758 views | BerkoRanger | 1. The ramifications across the leagues / non-leagues could be huge. Will other clubs still be able to use players they have on loan from Chelsea if CFC is no longer able to financially benefit from all the regular loan payments they receive from all those other clubs? 2. Isn't Bournemouth Russian owned? Sky Sports must be having a meltdown. | | | |

That will go to the day to day running of the club wages, bills etc, The main change is that Roman can't take any money out of the club The club could still be sold but he wouldn't get a penny from it | | | |

The Russian Bloke at North Battersea on 11:24 - Mar 10 with 2380 views | E17hoop | My favourite comment from a CFC forum this morning: "So the UK government will destroy an entire club from top to bottom because of 1 man. The tens of millions of supporters, the players, the staff, the coaches. All totally innocent and they get to watch as their club is destroyed." Tens of millions? | |

At times like this, everyone needs to allow themselves something to smile about. The bottom line is, we've known for years that Chelsea have gotten rich and successful off the back of money stolen from the Russian people. It is terrible that it has taken something like what is going on in Ukraine for anything to happen about it, but beyond our feelings about Chelsea, it is still the right thing being done. | | | |

Think he said he'd write it off when he put the club up for sale last week didn't he? | | | |
