Bloody hell...That is something else I have done and is long forgotten! I did a month doing the "changing of the guards" and "ceremony of the keys" there in '75 before flying out for jungle training...

Lemondropkid Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Having a good laugh at the headlines. After all these years UK PLC has just noticed Abramovich's money is dirty. Long overdue but welcome. I wonder to what extent the disgusting chanting of this name during the show of solidarity for the Ukraine, gave the Govt an extra nudge? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at how the disruption to the country affected the supply chain. Especially from China. We have let them get too powerful and influential. Now you have the Saudis also buying up football clubs and London Real Estate. But that's the Torys for you, all about the money and what they can cream off for themselves. Down to them to forbid it. But that's going off topic. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok short term but worried about long term. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemondropkid Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 (edited) He bought Chelsea in July 2003, and then bought the title. Table below shows the link between wages and finishing position.

Blackburn started it back in the early days of the PL. Jack Walker's millions bought it for them. Without cash it's pretty hard to make top 4. Leicester only really won it on the back of the others imploding and handing it to them. Still think the best PL season Was when Newcastle threw away a 15 point lead to United. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
