Bugga! But its from a reliable source eh!

I understand that you get some owners that just dont give a fuck about football let alon the team they own. But you can't act the passion that Roman shows when hes at the game. He displays the same feelings as we all get when its going on.

IF Roman does indeed sell we will be lucky to have the next owner to have the passion hes showed for us.

I know I thank him for the step up he gave us and I hope he gets his money back for us.

Lets hope Jim wants us to rule the world!

Daily Star... jesus christ... stopped reading after "That’s according to football club ownership expert James Montague." I'm sorry who? Does he work at Chelsea? Does he work for Abramovich? Who the fuck is he.

Also "All they want to do is offload the club as quickly as possible and make their money back. They don’t actually think about the quality or the motivations of the people buying it.” what a load of shite, I bet Roman has had offers before, fuck off you dickhead. 

IF and big if, worse came to worse and he had to sell, yeah fair enough he'd make a profit on it I'm sure just because of how he has changed the club but he wouldn't sell us and not care as the guys making out. what a fucking tube.

well...

After 15 years of wait Roman finally sees his club play an attractive and attacking brand of football, something he has been eager to see from the beginning. So of course immediately he sells the club. Because it makes sense.

what i read he could be Just selling a stake in the club the way city did or he could be selling the club  if does sell the club I hope he sells to the right buyer who can push us on the same level as psg or city owners do for them I would hate us to have clueless American owners the like Randy Lerner Or Gillett and Hicks

Even if the rumours are true I'm not concerned. We are Chelsea, one of the biggest clubs in England, no, the World. If he sells we will get in someone who will have the financial backing to help us kick on even further.We need the new stadium, we need to try to keeppace with City, PSG, Real Madrid so maybe, just maybe Roman feels he has brought us as far as he can, or needs to sell a share to keep us competitive.  Keep Calm and KTBFFH.

I was of the mind the news was bollox but then the club came out with the denial very quick and they never do shit like that.

And with the same bank that sold 13% of shity supposedly in on the deal it does add weight. Like you say its either a bit part or the whole lot.

It shouldn't be hard to find a buyer if so. There was the failed buy of the Dippers by the Saudi chap and Jim  has big pockets. But I doubt very much mate we shall find some guy thats really into football that likes a pie and a pint before the game that wants us. But as long as its not some West End shop keeper putting daft statues up and coming to the ground in those ridiculous 2 team scarves I dont really care. As long as they want their investment to grow its in our both best interest.

Its fuckin comments the media tag on like this that winds me up. Chelsea need to rebuild the team under new manager Maurizio Sarri after having allowed talents such as Mo Salah, Kevin de Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku to leave the club in recent years.

Great owner. 

If he leaves I would hope he gives an interview or something of his time with the club.

While I am sure that is what he is told, there is very little reason for Chelsea insiders not to lie about this and deny everything, if it was true. There is huge implications on a potential sale, that they need to shut down rumors of it until it's official. Business editors at The Sunday Times and Jonathan Norcroft are pretty good sources, and to be honest it would make sense, even if Roman loves the club, that he wouldn't want to own such a huge English football club if the country is going to keep treating him like it is.

We should have a whip round!

[Unionjack 7,531]

Apparently hes going to carry on with the rebuild!!

FFS make yer minds up. He cant be selling the place and rebuild us. Unless of course hes just a really nice chap wanting to do us a favor and that wouldnt keep his money long!

Sources pointed out that the Sunday Times has claimed that Abramovich rejected an offer for a minority stake from an American private equity firm called Silver Lake Partners.
