It’s a Russian company just shut them down and if some one wants to start again they can work their way up the pyramid. Then shut down the Saudis. Oh no this is Britain … too many vested interests About time people woke up to where their money drains out of this country to Chelsea were £1.5 billion in debt to their owner, like Rovers but on a much larger scale, they were surely draining Abramovich rather than the other way around? As far as shutting Chelsea down would you be saying the same if Wael was a Russian? Good luck to whoever has been tasked with sorting out this mess at the Premiership/FA! I would, yes as you have to look at the bigger picture and what is best for the world and I’d suggest that shutting down the funds of a despotic and crazed man is most important

So you'd hope Rovers disappeared just because Wael had owned us for a few years, thereby wiping out all our decades of existence when he wasn't our owner, not sure what that would actually achieve.

I wonder if Bournemouth might be under investigation now as I believe they have Russian backing?
Over the years, they've been more corrupt than our favourite whipping boys Swindle Town!

If we’d been sold out to bent Russian money we’d be deserving of whatever came our way yes. We weren’t so no need to worry about it

I’m all for shutting Chelsea down, and Man U, Learpaul, Arsenal,and every other club supported by millions of glory hunting parasites. If Chelsea bite the dust because of this it will be one tiny glimmer of light from an absolute catastrophe.

It's not a case of him being just Russian, he made his money from chechen oil after Russian invaded in the 90s. Nasty bit of work and all his philanthropic deeds won't leave him living in a caravan in st phillips.
Im not taking this any further down the political line, but the prem allowing Newcastle's purchase is just another moment of hypocrisy which I'm seeing in the west practically everytime I see the news,which I'm trying my best to avoid.

Many a big prize has been won with very dirty money in English football. 19 years worth of prizes financed on the back of others misery. The money that finances Leicester City’s success has got an interesting past. Now the Saudi’s at Newcastle. 81 Executed in Saudi on Saturday a record for one day. I can’t remember Gary giving that a mention on Match of the Day. Hay ho at least the Sky money keeps rolling in and no one really gives a toss so who cares

A conversation that’s taken place at AFCB since all this stuff started. But, whereas Abramovich and the others are oligarchs and closely linked to Putin I don’t think Max Denim is. He’s a Russian business man but he’s no oligarch. And tad unfair to say they’ve been as corrupt as Swindon. Not corrupt at all, broke the rules in one season and got punished for it but to compare them with the fiddles Power had at Swindon, not really. But whilst I don’t think Max Denim has been punished so far there’s a long way to go yet and if the Ukraine situation gets worse it may still happen. UTG!

Who cares about Chelsea. A £28 million pound a month wage bill sums the whole thing up. It's bloody obscene, give me good old Bristol Rovers everytime!

Yeah the Saudis are dropping bombs that we sell to them on innocent civs every day But because they’re our allies it never gets a mention. Newcastle’s owners will never be sanctioned by the West that is certain.

Is that true and just for players or everyone employed by the club? It's ridiculous whether it includes the kit man and tea lady or not. Madness.
