Guest LondonScottish Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Might seem like a long shot, but could Mr Abramovich be pulling his money out of Chelsea soon??? Link to comment

TheChimp Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 I would laugh if it happened. Would be reassuring to see the Chelsea replica tops disappear from the streets as Chelsea do a 'Leeds style' fall through the leagues. Link to comment
Baggy89 Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Might seem like a long shot, but could Mr Abramovich be pulling his money out of Chelsea soon???Where has this come from? Also noticed on the gossip bit on the BBC site, that Sidwell may have signed for them. If he has he's an idiot, how often does he think he'll get a game. Link to comment

brownie Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Where is this Abrimovich story from ? Link to comment
Baggy89 Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 A very rich idiot though!Yeah suppose it depends on what type of person you are. At least if he went to Man U he'd probably start reasonably regularly, if he went to Chelsea he might get a couple of Carling cup appearances. If it was me I'd go where I'd stand out and play regularly, especially if I wanted International recognition. Then again look at Kevin Nolan . Maybe getting payed big bucks to get splinters, is the modern footballers dream. Link to comment
Jaws Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Where is this Abrimovich story from ? I'm thinking there isn't one. Link to comment
minijc Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 I'm thinking there isn't one.Agreed but LS never said it was a story, it's probably just a thought that he had. Link to comment
Guest LondonScottish Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Agreed but LS never said it was a story, it's probably just a thought that he had. One of my mates who's on the board at one of London's major clubs gave me the heads up this morning. Up to you guys what you make of it..................... Link to comment

Given that they will likely finally land Hargreaves and they have a fairly corwded midfield already who do you think Sidwell would displace on a regular basis? Link to comment

Given that they will likely finally land Hargreaves and they have a fairly corwded midfield already who do you think Sidwell would displace on a regular basis?I assume it will be either Sidwell or Hargreaves not both, Fergie has never really been a manger to buy players just so the opposition can't have them, I always felt he either buys players to play them or in the hope they develop into players he can use. Sidwell doesn't fall in to the second Category, so I assume it would be the first. At Chelsea as it stands he would be competing for one of two starting berths with Lampard, Makalele, Ballack, Cole, Mikel and Essien. At least at Man U he would only be competing, as it stands with Scholes, Carrick, and Fletcher.Just my opinion like... Link to comment
Douchebag Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 I cant see Abramaaramovic leaving until he gets his passport... alegedly thats all he's after once he has UK citizenship he is immune from being extradited back to russia to serve his sentences for corruption and theft? all been suggested before but it holds water... Im not sure what it is but I think its resident for 5 years he can apply for citizenship Link to comment
