the wes 7,212 Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 (edited) CHAIRMAN Bruce Buck insists Chelsea would survive if Roman Abramovich walked away.Abramovich has transformed the Blues' fortunes since buying the club from Ken Bates in 2003.And many critics claim Chelsea would be on the verge of collapse if the Russian billionaire ever decided to end his love affair with football.But Buck said: "I think we'd be in a reasonably good state if Mr Abramovich left."However, we are comfortable — the directors of Chelsea Football Club are comfortable — that he is here for the long haul."Every year we're required to look at that. We're comfortable and we don't see it as an issue at all." TheSun Edited October 8, 2009 by the wes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badboy 1,526 Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Good news, i dont think roman would leave anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aesthetic Relic 301 Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 He'll leave eventually, but I remember reading somewhere a few years ago that his intentions were to pass on control of the club to his son. I'm not sure what age he is now, but I think I saw him recently at a match and he's still in his teens. I dont think it would be wise to have us owned by a teenybopper :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZanSnake 1,211 Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 Roman is about 48-50 so i think he has many years left to cheer for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacko CFC 0 Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 I'm speaking on behalf of my own opinion here so I'm sorry if I sound wrong or mistaken, but I thank Roman for everything that has happened to Chelsea, I think of him as a father of Chelsea and without him I dont think we would of been where we are today, one of the greatest football teams in the world with great staff and skillful players. I'd be sad to see him go when he eventually leaves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray. 217 Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 True, in another 6 years he'll be 48...He's younger than I thought he was, I can't see him leaving just yet, unless he's got ambitions elsewhere, maybe he's seen that there is potential in Spurs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Term-X 7,891 Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 him leaving would have a detrimental affect on the players mentality's and the football agenda world wide, we would no longer be a big club and signings would be similar to a club like aston villa and spurs.probably best we all pray to whatever god it is you believe in that aethetic relic's theory has leverage.

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 If Roman leaves, there is NO WAY we'll be in trouble. Some other multi-billionaire oil tycoon will buy us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
