There's always a fudge or a workaround. The worst ones always live. Exactly. There'll find some loophole. As much as I hate Chelsea's money and how they became successful, I'm not sure I'll be celebrating as much as anyone else (and they used to be the one club I'd happily see go bust).

mozartfox Posted 10 March 2022 Share Posted 10 March 2022 On away tickets, Chelski could gift the tickets to the away Club who could then sell with the proceeds going towards the rebuilding of Ukraine once Putin is fooked. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean 1) the war could end whenever or 2) would he really want to just give is club away for nothing. I’m not sure that would work . His most recent attempts at citizenship and favourable visa/ leave to remain have been blocked because of what the government have on him before this Ukraine war even started . I would think he’s beyond redemption now 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but how does that sanction Abramovic personally? He doesn't come round every Sunday for an envelope of cash from ticket sales. I'm just not sure imposing all this stuff on the club is helping. He's already walked away and is selling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole world smiles Posted 10 March 2022 Share Posted 10 March 2022 Yeah calm down lads this basically means the UK govt can oversee the sale and make sure the profit goes to the Ukraine. It also looks good for the govt but the club was being sold anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the owner of Chelsea football club. It’s money going into his asset, which he has direct access to and which builds his wealth both directly and can be weighed against other assets and investments to build portfolios and other investments (such as into steel mining which allegedly helps build Russian tanks according to the official reasoning below) and indirectly through giving him soft power and exposure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aus Fox Posted 10 March 2022 Share Posted 10 March 2022 Following this, is there any scenario where the Premier League could refuse to give Chelsea FC a licence for next season and relegate them? Or UEFA could ban them from taking part in European competitions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innovindil Posted 10 March 2022 Share Posted 10 March 2022 Today’s sanctions against Roman Abramovich and the licence that’s been drawn up for Chelsea does, at the moment, halt any prospect of a sale. However, the BBC understands that the government is open in the future to considering a licence that would permit the sale of the club, but that would have conditions so that the proceeds would not be able to go to Abramovich. This is because they think the viability of the club is potentially best served if it is sold ---------- They'll let him sell it but the sales money has to be frozen? Weird as hell.

Freezing assets and any income going into some kind of trust fund may be the solution. Edited 10 March 2022 by fox in the sox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
