Should be stripped of everything that won during those years.
Wait, the guy they sanctioned and then made his sell the club and donate all the money?
Nobody’s going to feel sorry for him
I think the money are still sitting in a bank account, but yeah.
It’s not surprising considering where he got the money in the first place.
At birth, success is being alive. At age 3, success is not pooping your pants. At age 10, success is having friends. At age 16, success is having a driver’s license. At age 20, success is having sex. At age 30, success is having money… At age 40, success is having money.
At age 55, success is having sex.
At age 70, success is having a driver’s license.
At age 75, success is having friends.
At age 80, success is not pooping your pants.
At age 100, success is being alive.
These allegations are at least as serious as City’s 115 if not more by the way.
They’re being accused of systemic and deliberate financial irregularity. Their new owners have already admitted/exposed misreporting under Roman (and they were fined by UEFA this year) but remains to be seen whether even they were aware of this.
Gotta love these Man City fans who think another club’s rule breaking makes their cheating seem like no big deal.
Lmao that’s rich coming from a clearly biased City fanboy.
Don’t care if you let city and Newcastle do whatever, such crap as you already shat all over Chelsea for this. Move on or hammer the other oil clubs.
Chelsea got their money from a Putin sanctioned Russia oligarch. That’s about the dirtiest, bloodiest money in the world. The whole club should be utterly ashamed of taking that money. Absolutely vile club.
Lol cry more , spuds fan.
Honestly I’m not surprised at all. Chelsea are nothing but a bunch of fucking cheats who bought all their trophies with dodgy oligarch money. Chelsea are a club I would love to see liquidated. Fuck Chelsea and their fans who are a bunch of cunts.
Dont sit on the fence. Tell us how you really feel
Who pissed on your cornflakes this morning ?
+1 scummy club
the boy is upset because the only time londons white is when chelsea cum on spurs face
It’s all oligarch money mate
Now they care?
New owners have to report potential breaches of the law, or they could be liable. Fault lies with the FA that judged Roman fit and proper to own Chelsea in the first place.
its crazy how the whole football world can watch something obviously happening and then 20 years later the powers that be realise that something happened.
(something being massive amounts of money laundering/corruption/fraud)
Simply because it is now talked about doesn’t mean people weren’t aware it was happening. Think Jimmy Savile. To say many (premier league, Chelsea) stood idly by while reaping the rewards while turning a blind eye to the origin of the funds is more like it.
Example of how this directly affected competition is the Willian transfer, he was all set to sign for Tottenham but abramovich essentially paid his agent a massive bung for him to dump spurs and sign with Chelsea. If Chelsea were ran off their own steam, like a proper football club, they wouldn’t even be in the conversation in the first place.
How on earth could you possibly know that?
The season before Roman Chelsea finished 17 points above Spurs and in a Champions League position.
This narrative Chelsea came from league 2 under Roman is lazy and reductive.
Infact the last time before Roman Spurs finished above Chelsea was 1996.
Or … just maybe William’s own report that he always preferred Chelsea is actually the truth.
When Chelsea and City get stripped of all their titles we’re gonna be on 25 + leagues once they’re handed to us
Oh how the mighty have fallen.
The only way you can dream of winning the league these days is on a technicality
Most of the seasons since Fergie left would end up going to Arsenal and Liverpool rather than Man Utd. Theres only 2 times you’ve come 2nd since.
Arsenal would only get 1 compared to United’s 2 actually
I should probably clarify that I mean generally Liverpool and Arsenal have finished higher than Man Utd. If we really broke it down Spurs would also have a title. Its obviously not going to happen though so Spurs can dream on with their dusty cabinet.
Yeah not happening dream on
I remember there being a documentary about how dodgy he was, and how he used to help Putin do his accounts and had friends who were in the Bravta in around 2010 and nobody cared. This information was widely known for over a decade and only now they are pushing back on him.
I’m still almost like the PL has completely failed to regulate itself for about 20 years now
Not a big shock that the owners of the 20 clubs aren’t the best people to police the 20 clubs.
Also, not a big shock that ridiculous amounts of money come through mysterious means.
The new UK regulator will probably dock city and Chelsea points heavily, city are in big trouble
They should be demoted , like Rangers were. Their titles must be stripped off them
Hopefully
They’re probably going to struggle to punish us as we’re under new ownership etc, anything they try will be a massive legal battle and drag on for likely years before it’s settled.
Would have been a lot easier to do if they didn’t make him sell the club though!
Which makes me think cos he’s not there and holds no real influence is why they’re now asking questions. If City group left I have a feeling their charges would be dealt with sooner.
Again, why tf is this an issue AFTER the Roman era and when we have new owners? If anything go solve City’s 100-and something breaches first🤦♂️
It’s an issue after Roman because the new owners were the ones who reported the irregular accounting practices.
Sucks that the chickens are coming to roost…20 years of listening to Chelsea fans banter everyone else like they did it legit…
WE ALL KNEW
