Is Brentford worth 10% of Chelsea? What did Chelsea sell for?


£2.5billion for Chelsea

My school metal work teacher was a Mr Benham. Fascinating I know.


Not that temple of learning that graced Orange Hill Rd, perchance?

No, this is not what Rothschild's has valued the club at. It's what someone (probably connected to Benham) has told a journalist the club is valued at.


Really ?

A US buyer will probably come in, totally neglect how Benham got them where they are, overspend, get them relegated and back in League One before you know it.

Zero debt made a profit last season if we don’t get relegated this season there is a guaranteed 150 million + for next season and then a further 100 mill in parachute if then relegated.Mad money


Those numbers are worthless.
You will get £100M for Toney and then the magic trick is to find a replacement. Toney has essentially kept you up. So you add a £100M to your £150M and you have a reasonable war-chest and you have an excellent record of signing players. Plus, it's an unknown how much cash Benham will leave in the club - given his investment.
As for the stadium, it does not have attractive real-estate investment potential. Benham being the smart chap he is built a purpose facility for Brentford which holds circa 17,000.
So what does £400M buy you? Not a lot. A purpose built stadium, local fanbase and a team who has punched well above their weight. Any new buyer will need to be a better magician than Benham.
Whilst, not in the £BN's league Benham is a smart operator and has a sure-footed business CV - I wonder why he is thinking of selling? Fernandes has a few £BN in his back-pocket!

Simple. You buy low, sell high. He, nor anyone else, will be able to grow Brentford anymore.
As I said to a Brentford friend when they finished 10th, or something, 'that's as good as it's gonna get'.

Finished 9 th last season and yes I expect that’s as good as it gets if you play by the rules and maybe why Benham is looking for investment elsewhere.
