Be interesting to see how these celebrities cope with the Financial pit that is the Championship. Suddenly millions become tens of millions.

Quoted from rancido


The Premiersh*t quickly became a plaything for lots of 'consortiums', wealthy individuals and vanity projects - Abramovich was a prime example. It was inevitable that it would percolate down the football pyramid. I would imagine that Southend could easily emulate Wrexham and are better positioned, geographically, to achieve this.


Maybe Abramovich did do it as a vanity project, but it's hard to argue he did anything but good in the grand scheme of things for Chelsea, the community and English football in general.

Can you give some examples of what he did for the good of the Community and Football in General?

If we had to have A list owners, who would you like it to be?


I’m not sure who I’d want it to be, but under the last ownership it all felt a bit David Brent!

You'd think the scope for another documentary would be limited. Reynolds bottled a bit of lightning by being the first to the party. Lightening don't strike twice.


I think Michael Jackson might have disagreed with you there.
