Share Posted May 6, 2022 (edited) I will always be grateful for everything Roman did for this club, his dedication, love and support for Chelsea Football Club should never be questioned, such a big shame that things had to end like this for him, fuck the UK government and Putin.

Keep it going bruv🤗 i feel really sad mate, not gonna lie, Roman deserved much better than this for sure, at least he will make sure Chelsea stays in good hands before he departs, that’s how much he cares for this club. I wish him nothing but the best in his life and future projects, and far away from the witch hunt in the UK. The important thing now is for Chelsea to continue staying competitive and successful under the new owners. Here’s to a happy future, cheers and KTBFFH always 💙🥹🙏 Edited May 6, 2022 by Johnnyeye Fernando, bigbluewillie and Vytis33 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post! Superblue 6,372 Posted May 6, 2022 Popular Post! Share Posted May 6, 2022 It's further reassurance if true but I have a good feeling about Boehly and from the information and knowledge we all have, he has always seemed to be the best option. I think the intention with Chelsea all along for Boehly and Clearlake is that of a long term investment. They could potentially take a few million here and there from the club but it's not going to make a dent in the outlay they have made to buy the club. They're no mugs. A more successful club brings in more performance related revenue, more advertising and sponsorship opportunities, more fans and ultimately higher value. The plan certainly over the next 10 years will be to sort the stadium out stand by stand and build on the base that Roman has created at the club. A time will come where Clearlake will want to see a return on their investment, but the likelihood is this will be done on a long term scale whereby they slowly divest their shareholding within the club, in their hopes and plans when it is valued at multiple times what it is currently. I think every Chelsea fan appreciates what Roman has done. Not to forget that we could have ended up going down a similar route to the one Leeds took, he's given to me something that I never expected when growing up with regards to the trophy haul we've enjoyed during his tenure. But it should also be noted in doing so, we've wasted insane amounts of his money. New and the unknown doesn't have to be worse. New eyes and new ideas may be what the club needs. I think like most, I just want this done and dusted now and to be able to move on as the last couple of months have not been enjoyable as a Chelsea supporter but I am excited to see what the future holds for the club. bigbluewillie, Norfolkblue1961, Blue Armour and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Kante 1,643 Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Surprised this has moved so quickly. Multi-Billion pound take overs usually take a lot longer. Hopefully nothing has been missed and all due diligence has been done properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully nothing has been missed and all due diligence has been done properly. One of the main positives regarding Boehly is that a bid or negotiations took place about 3 years ago regarding buying Chelsea so a lot of due diligence would have been carried out then which would still hold up now. It's not a coincidence that the Boehly consortium has been pretty much locked in from a very early point in comparison to other groups who were still putting teams together well into their bids.

Yeah, that is one positive with his bid. That said, all the financing and due diligence (as it would need to be gone over again) still normally takes longer. Obviously, we were in a goodish place with him returning as some of the leg work had been done already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
