Shame Abramovich wasn't sectioned as well as sanctioned - you have to be insane to be a Mad Vlad crony.

Breaking news


The Premier League has disqualified Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich as a director of the club after the oligarch was sanctioned by the UK government.

Abramovich had his British assets - including Chelsea - frozen on Thursday as part of the government's response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

So if his assests are frozen, does that mean Cheleas can't play any games...of course not, someone has to pay PL and the refs

It's Abramovich who is sanctioned, not the club. His assets are frozen, but it's not like they've been erased, Stamford Bridge reduced to rubble, the players cease to exist etc.

That would make a good film ........how I would replay the destruction of Stamford Bridge time and time again . It would be nice for Lampard and Terry seen to be standing in front of diggers trying to stop the destruction , and those two been run over by the diggers. Yes , I would certainly watch that film 😁

Why can't they go by train ?
Anyway, I'd make them go by national express, the one that stops at all the towns & cities along the way :tup:

Why don't the dozens of multi millionaires who will be travelling to Boro from Chelsea pay for a flight themselves if it is such a hardship?

Very unfortunate announcement from Chelski considering their “previous” owners close involvement with a mass murderer. Perhaps those over indulged footballers should be made to do a coach journey across Ukraine. With Lampard tied to front preferably

Did anyone else watch the panorama special last neet on 'how Abramovich made his money'
Jesus, we all acknowledged, even the chelsea fans, that their was corruption involved, but, why did the PL / FA agree to it !!!!
We had to jump through hoops under Cellino alone with the fit & proper, due dilligence etc, it just smacks of corruption at a grand scale, even the UK government allowed so many russians in the country to add £££billions to our economy, including Abramovich, if it wasn't for the war this would still be going on.

Watched athe good documentary on the beeb revealing 4 years worth of financial investigations. Abramovich confirmed in an English court that his money came from corrupt deals. He was being sued by a co-conspirator who was complaining abramovich didn’t pay him his end in a 13 BILLION dollar sale of his petrochemical company - back to the Russian govt who he bought the company from for 10 MILLION a few years earlier.

The 13billion was Russian tax payer money. An (unconfirmable ) statement is that abramovich is part of Putins personal wealth management team.

Double standards from the English Football Authorities, plain and simple mc. Patently preferential treatment for the chosen few and quite the opposite for Leeds United, it’s always been the same, I would imagine it always will be!

Yes all true, if it wasn't LUFC I would say differently, but we always seem to end up with the shitty end of the stick, one would think we would have lawyers to pick holes in these blatant wrongdoings.
Whats happened here with chelsea and abramovich is highly embarrassing for the UK as a whole imo.
