I also got about 20 mugs in the garage if anyone wants one....

“We are complicit, and we have welcomed their money, I'm certainly not innocent of that. Just organising a fundraiser for Russians for a new venue. They will give thousands, again because we know we are reliant on them. It gives them social capital in the capital.”
 

From last Sunday on the politics thread.

What people will do for a free mug.

There’s no such thing as a free lunch.

Do as I say not as I do. Selfish. Hypocrite.

I know, funnily enough it's something that has been discussed, at length before a land war in Europe.

But that takes longer than a post on a football forum.

And its not about 'being right' because unless you are a hermit. No one is.

Really? You don't read an awful lot, do you?

Yes really.

I've said I don't read books. You know that I don't.

By the sounds of it you're too busy reading other people's perspectives, thoughts and actions.

I have my own.

Just because it's in a book doesn't mean its right and everyone should follow by example.

I've got my own life experiences and make decisions on what is best for me but firstly what is best for others.

Try it someday.

So Chelsea can’t pay their players and staff now right?

Add to that they can’t sign or sell any players…

I mean I don’t really care what happens to them but where does this go from here? Government seize Chelsea and sell it and Abramovich gets nowt? Can they do that?

No.

They can pay players and staff. They cannot sign or sell players.

Abramovich has already pledged sales money to Ukraine rebuilding or some such.

Anyway Chelsea were elected into the Football League without having played a competitive game. Money talked, even in 1905.

He was very ambiguous when he put out his statement of intent. He said the proceeds would help to rebuild and assist any injured. It was all deliberately worded to sound as though he meant Ukrainian people but didn’t actually say so.

I didn't get the free mug, that was part of the merch - although I do use them, and they are very good.

I worked on selling the tickets.

Was a good show.

But yes, my hands are dripping in blood. Dripping I tell thee.

This panorama Abramovich dirty money programme is staggering. How on earth did this corrupt bastard get to run a major UK football team for so long.

We had our own Pound shop Abramovich a bit back with sweaty tank top wearing goggly eyed Kenski.

It’s time government pulled plug on clubs owned by dubious folk, let’s have a blood letting of all such clubs, oh how I’d enjoy watching the fall out from their fans. 

On the Guardian Football Weekly they said if you removed them all in the Prem you would only have Norwich left
