  1. Note those four are only the frontrunners according to the Athletic. Not the confirmed four. Boehly-Wyss Consortium probably the favorite.
  2. 1. Boehly & Wyss Consortium 2. Ricketts/Griffin Group 2. Sir Martin Broughton Consortium 4. Woody Johnson Final 4 according to the Athletic.
  3. The only thing that shouldn’t change is our academy operations. Need to remain the best in the country.
  4. NewSaudi Media's bid is currently being finalised and will be sent to Raine Group before the deadline. They have good active dialogue and have faced no issues in the process and have been encouraged to proceed. Details of what the bid is: Inside Saudi Media's Chelsea takeover bid: Renew Rudiger's contract and rebuild Stamford Bridge | Goal.com #CFC — Nizaar Kinsella (@NizaarKinsella) March 18, 2022 Todd Boehly has told Raine that he could complete a takeover of Chelsea in time for the next Premier League game against Brentford as his rivals scramble to get their bids in before tonight's 9pm deadline. - Matt Law
  5. He sustained it during the Arsenal match, no? The fact he continued to play gives evidence it isn't so bad. James literally collapsed against Brighton back in January. His was a grade 3.
  6. Depends on the tear. If a grade 3, its 6-8 weeks.
  7. Final bids. Then the knockout stages begin.
  8. I rate Guehi but just bewilders me how Tomori continues to get overlooked. Arguably the better CB.
  9. So we have two Tier 1 journalists reporting conflicting things. Nizaar Kinsella talking about the Saudi group and that they will have the largest bid. Matt Law talking about the Boehly-Wyss Consortium being the only serious option, and not having any idea about the Saudi Group.
  10. American Crime Story: Impeachment Much like the first 2 seasons, this is also very good. Bill Clinton was a little slut wasn’t he.
  11. Sorry, is this directed to me? I was genuinely the only neutral that supported Lampard’s appointment and that Everton needed to afford him time. My question was whether or not Everton would actually do it.
  12. Just curious to see how patient Everton intend on being with Lampard, much like Arsenal with Arteta. Will the money be available for a rebuild?
  13. Chelsea: Candy signs club legend Vialli to advise on bid before auction's final whistle https://t.co/d8HV4HZ9Fe — Sky News (@SkyNews) March 16, 2022 Would absolutely love that.
  14. My question is do Everton continue with Lampard should they finish above relegation.
  15. The consortium involving Ken Griffin and the Ricketts Family to purchase Chelsea is not in partnership with Griffin's hedge fund company, Citadel, it has been revealed. It has previously been reported that the Ricketts Family will join hedge fund billionaire Griffin to mount a 'blockbuster' bid for Chelsea. And now it has been revealed, via Matt Law, that the hedge fund owner's partnership is with him and not Citadel. A spokesperson for Griffin confirmed he has joined the Ricketts family to make a bid for Chelsea This comes after the Ricketts Family released a statement, outlining their interest. The statement writes: "The Ricketts Family, owners of the Chicago Cubs, can confirm they will be leading an investment group that will make a formal bid for Chelsea Football Club this Friday. "As long-time operators of an iconic professional sports team, the Ricketts Family & partners understand the importance of investing for success on the pitch while respecting the traditions of the club, the fans & the community. "We look forward to sharing further details of our plans in due course." Griffin's reported net worth is 27.2 billion USD, providing a huge amount of financial backing for the consortium. Previous reports stated that the Ricketts family were considering joining investors to launch a bid, and now this is set to be tabeled on Friday - the deadline day. The Raine Group, the bank trusted with the task to sell Chelsea, have a working relationship with the Ricketts family and knowledge of 'small circle investors' with the money to make a deal happen.
  16. They Ricketts-Griffin bid is expected to make an official announcement today. It is expected they announce stadium redevelopment plans and meeting the 3bill asking price.
  17. Asking for the Boro game to be played behind closed doors is a crass decision by the club. It's not Boro's fault our situation and you can't deprive fans their biggest game for years because of our misfortune. Presumably we can't sell away tickets from now on so with Arsenal, Brentford and Watford coming up they can't ask for the games to be behind closed doors because they will have no fans in attendance.
  18. For what its worth, Saudi Media Group have actually received some backlash in their own country for increasing their company's workforce in women. They appear a bit more progressive than the norm in their country.
  19. In the case of the online gooners taking the mickey out of us the past couple weeks, it would be brilliant. Deadline Friday so its going to be an interesting week.
  20. Reports private company Saudi Media Group are preparing to out bid Boehly & Wyss Consortium to 2.8 billion. Deadline Friday.
  21. Nick Candy isn’t a serious option according to Matt Law.
  22. Heard the Spahn Ranch set was incredibly accurate. I personally have this 2nd to Inglorious Bastards. I also just now realised that oriental girl that was set on fire at the end was also in Scream (2022), who was also set on fire...
  23. It's just more PR. Genuinely doesn't do a thing as Roman isn't a director in either the club nor Fordstam. This Boehly fella seems like a promising candidate. Just need a director of football to match what he's looking for.
  24. Exclusive: Roman Abramovich gives green light to Chelsea sale | @Matt_Law_DT https://t.co/TAK6rEdUiQ #CFC pic.twitter.com/LGqWZP4dMR — Telegraph Football (@TeleFootball) March 11, 2022
