    Chelsea

    School run and got back in the car and TalkSport were finishing up something that ended with something along the lines of ?Chelsea in discussion with the Premier League to try and agree a fine instead of a points deduction?.

    Anyone heard anything?
    Seems very close to PSR announcement, but all the clubs were given a provisional green light yesterday? so not sure if it is related or not.

    It?s to do with hidden transfer payments from the Roman era.

    They reported it themselves to the Premier League after the takeover.

    I know it was the previous regime who did this, so seems a bit unfair for these guys to shoulder the blame?

    but they haven?t exactly warmed themselves to me with their own transfer dealings and paying for players with hotels.

    And they are reaping the rewards of the past dodgy dealings by getting their hands on a successful London club!

    So sod them!!!

    Ah right? f**k em? it?s the club that benefitted from the dodgy dealings, they should pay the price for it.

    POINTS POINTS POINTS

    Not thinking about completion for the Top 4 at all when I say that 😉

    Well - when Luton did similar at it was the previous owners, they got a 30 points deduction.

    I get it's self-reported and previous owners but still the entity "Chelsea" that benefited.

    When you buy a club you buy everything, the players, the ground, the bank account, the league entry, the car park you can sell to yourself for PSR and the hotels you can sell to yourself for PSR as well as any debts including legal (as in laws of the game) debts resulting from past dodgy dealings. So tough, caveat emptor, please deduct loads of points for blatant cheating. Ideally enough to relegate them - let's see how easy it is to keep their bloated overpriced squad in the championship.

    Chelsea buying from themselves again

    Signing a youngster from Strasbourg - highly rated for ?15 million. . . .funnily enough, they are also owned by the Chelsea owner.

    Remember how we had rules put in place to block us possibly loaning Neves and the farcical nature of ASM's cheap move and the scrutiny we were put under

    But chelsea. . . .complete one rule for cartel and another for everyone else.
