The Sun has the highest newspaper circulation and the Daily Mail the busiest web site. Doesn't make them any good though. If you can point me to the recent quotes from any manager or player who believes Liverpool are no good then I’m all ears.

I think it’s clear if you are upset with something you should report it rather than carry on making uncalled for remarks. Your comments on this thread to gingerjon are unnecessary in my opinion. Its usually a good thread where people stick to discussing the football despite the partisan nature of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea are just a west London Millwall or West Ham who have had a billionaire use them to sportwash and secure assets. I am also 24 and have lived through a generation of peers where the worst sorts decided to pick up Chelsea as their football club in the 2000s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommygilf Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Getting worse for Chelsea now, credit cards and bank accounts suspended. Also a key point that Abramovich can't write off his £1.5 billion loan to Chelsea to make them an easier purchase, as that would make it a gift and break every financial fair play/profit and sustainability rule going. Basically, unless something major changes, looks like Chelsea are doomed. And its not even Christmas! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
