Stamford Bridge Thread

I know it's all about money, but what a shame that you (the competent authorities) sold a remarkable London site (well, I am not sure if it is "that" remarkable, but at least a well known place) to a foreign investors while you could have sell it to a London-based club which is currently one of the best in the world (-> well representative of the city).

Well, based on the British media they don't seem to rate Chelsea that highly...

Btw, nice to see you back!

now when i'm reading this it's looks even more like a VERY poor decision from them.

The renders that the club released did look amazing for Battersea, it would have been so unique.

Have the club identified other sites? I know there were whispers of Earls Court, but I heard that already has planning permission for house/flats, so that seems unlikely.

The only other rumor I heard was that Chelsea were considering a bid for Chelsea and Westminster hospital.

It will be interesting to see what happens next.

What about somewhere in Earls court?

[Term-X 7,891]

They need to find another architectural USP, otherwise don't bother.

It isn't very easy to find land in London. Especially when you are limited to such a small space. There's only 3 or 4 sites that are now available to us.

We desperately need a bigger stadium!

FFP.

We can hope to constantly win the CL, But in reality we need to move.

At about 1:40 in this video you can see where the new dugout will be going

Big step today towards the exit.

When shares go back on sale the club can again bulk buy up to 100 shares and every share gets a vote

Can you tell us anything more? This is the first I've heard of it.

Basically there was a vote to get the amount of shares each individual can buy from 100 to 10. The vote favoured in the way of no change, meaning buck et al are still able to buy 100 shares to gain more votes. Therefore when the next vote comes around on moving stadium the club will have enough shares to say that they want to move.

They've basically just swept the arse out from under the CPO then. Emasculated their say in the clubs affairs.

Yeah, basically a stadium move is imminent.

If it isn't to Battersea; I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

Agreed, that stadium looked magnificent.

I'll not have us playing in some shitbowl at Wormwood Scrubs or whatever.

Well we know it won't be Battersea. Not many other options really. Can't remember them exactly, but there is only 3/4 other sites that are remotely close.

[capriccioso 2,545]

Let's just move to that province that Roman used to govern and rename ourselves as CSKA Abramograd.
