Does this thing count as a pen ? Unintentional - ball was going wide.

The idea of having rich managers is precisely because clubs do not break even. The club is supposed to act as an advertisement for the rich guy so he gives money to the club. This has been the case with all I remember. Otherwise a bunch of local co op girls could run the football clubs.

Not really, but in the grassroots they are that way - like the Tories, una faccia una razza.

Boris out in the hastings during pro-Putin campaign:

Kidnap Putin

I was referring to the general anti-Chelsea atmosphere of these days and how it works, not the pros and cons of oligarchy.

The Johnson government are desperately trying to un-Putin themselves, make it look brexit it was never a Putin job. The Labour opposition who also support brexit seem happy to follow and their supporters are after all supposed to hate all the rich.

M.U. were unlucky and Atletico who did not impress either were the lucky ones. But the way M.U. play is sh/t.

Well, I know the various Greek scandals so I 'm trying to play detective Hercules Poirot with the Abramovitch case. But one thing is for sure. He did n't cause the war or gained (!) from it.

There is some more to this story. You just can't buy something worth 2.7 billion for 250 million. One example: The totalizator of the Athens race course in 1995. An American company who had already won the bid in Cyprus makes an offer for 20 million. Intralot asks for 25 million, the totalizator will not become property of the racecourse but operated by Intralot on behalf of the race course so the race course will have to pay every month ! Intralot wins with the shaky excuse that they offer jobs to Greek workers. It was scandalous and we all know there was a lot of political wheeling and dealing. Then they do more. In the year 2001 they change all the displays to euros. But that was n't due till 2002 so they make them show first drachmas then euros, alternating. The result was awful-unreadable. But Intra got 2 million euros for it, for making the displays unreadeable and then they get paid more in 2002 to make them into proper euro displays. But all that is small money. Or the other Greek deal with the German built submarines at around the same time. There was bribing, some people were sentence to long prison sentences, but again it was small money when compared to the total cost of the subs. How can you pay 250 million for something worth 2.7 billion ? Nobody around to make another offer ? Then it was not worth 2.7 billion. If it was me I could easily double the bribes to the various officials and buy the snibneft for say 2.3 billion.

Next match at the bridge is April 2 against Brentford. If you go you can meet the season ticket holders and then you can go to a pub to talk more. No problem. Only on April 2 the sanctions may be over.

There is.

Candy is Greek after all.

The supporters of the super league appear to have a problem with too many indifferent matches and they wanted to change the system and do that thing last year. It was a crazy scheme but if there is some logic in their position, the feasible alternative is fewer teams in the domestic leagues and mini leagues in the CL / Europa. Thus in England we go from 20 to 16. In Greece we have 14 teams plus some silly play offs nobody likes. We should have 14 or 16 teams and no playoffs.

How does it work though ? 200 million instead of 2 billion ? The one with 2 billion is obviously in a position to give better bribes than the one with the 200 million. I 've seen some tricks but that much difference looks big.

That stuff is from 30 years ago. It probably makes Abramovitch a thief (in Russia) but it is neither espionage nor warmongering.

We have one sports related, Alexander Spanos with 2.4 billion, owner of San Diego Chargers.

The richest Greek is a Jim Davis with 5.1 billion dollars. Poor house.

What links to what regime ? Bojo is the one who is linked, Mogg and co and they wanted all of continental Europe to go under Putin. Abramovitch had no idea a war was going to start.

Why ? So many deadwood matches. My idea is to make the CL, Europa stage of 16 into a league. But again the European conference cup is silly.

First of all anyone who speaks about Roman Abramovitsh should wash his mouth with soap first. But are all those giant conglomerations we hear of not capable of managing the Chelsea ship ? If the sale is carried out quickly I don't see why they can't.

No shot on target for 85 minutes ! Everyone is affected.

True, they tend to break up. Nottinhgam Forest 80s ?
