“We thought Chelsea was frankly an asset, a business that was not terribly well managed on the football side, sporting side or promotional side”
These guys are clearly business geniuses with no CEO, no shirt sponsor, and an on-pitch disaster

This is the second season in a row we don’t have a front of shirt sponsor so clearly this guy wasn’t that good at his job

The fact we haven’t got a main sponsor is embarrassing, coupled with the fact its worth over 40 million a season income, more heads should be rolling.

Another one bites the dust.. Funny how Clearlake felt the need to talk down to the previous ownership about how the club was run on the business side of things and they themselves can’t keep their directors in place for more than a year and for the second year in a row we don’t have a fucking sponsor on the shirt…
