Ben Jacobs had confirmed the Oman Air will not feature on the shirt. Obviously just an airline partner. Supporters Trust might have screwed the club financially for next year assuming we not have to accept a lesser sponsorship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Singleton Posted July 7, 2023 Author Share Posted July 7, 2023 @Holymoly I think most sensible people knew that the "conspiracy theories" were nothing but a load of b*ll*cks. The fact that the money we were getting was close to the 'book price' of the individual players rather than over-inflated fees suggested as much.

blueboy1905 Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 I take it now that as the CST has had it's way and Stake are no longer being pursued as a shirt sponsor they will be turning attention to the fact we serve alcohol in the ground as well as unhealthy food. I mean selling these items may turn us into alcoholics and overweight unhealthy fans. I take it that the betting booths will be closed in case we blow a weeks wage on Ziyech scoring a hat trick. I look forward to my carrot smoothie and pumpkin seed wrap in the MHL. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Blood Is Blue Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 At a complete guess, I would say this is to do with a new Stadium and helping to get funding for that. It would feel less embarrassing if we actually had a shirt sponsor though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguelito07 Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 From the Bloomberg site: Chelsea FC has approached investors about raising capital for the London-based club, according to people familiar with the matter. Any new financial investor could inject money in return for a stake in the English Premier League club, the people added, asking not to be named discussing confidential information. The club could raise as much as $500 million, one of the people said. No final decision has been made and it’s unclear how much capital Chelsea may end up raising in the end, or whether any investment would be a combination of debt and equity... ...A spokesperson for Clearlake declined to comment... ...Clearlake bought Chelsea for £2.5 billion ($3.2 billion) last year, after the UK government sanctioned the club’s then-owner, the Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich, in the wake of the invasion of Ukraine. The club is set to start this season on Aug. 13 without shirt and sleeve sponsors, having failed to agree deals, while match-day revenues are restricted by a 40,000-seat stadium that has a lower capacity than many of Chelsea’s rivals. Chelsea’s latest set of accounts, for the period ending 30 June, 2022, show a loss of nearly £116 million on revenue of £453 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Singleton Posted August 4, 2023 Author Share Posted August 4, 2023 https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2023/08/04/manchester-united-takeover-potential-investor-chelsea/ Man United takeover: Potential investor switches attention to Chelsea By Tom Morgan, Sports News Correspondent 2–3 minutes One of the US-based investment firms offering fresh investment at Manchester United earlier this year is now eyeing a potential deal at Chelsea. Ares Management is believed to be in talks about offering investment at Stamford Bridge, with the Todd Boehly-led consortium open to receiving a capital injection. The investment firm is becoming a major player in the sector, having last year raised $3.7 billion (£3.2 billion) to invest in sports, media and entertainment, more than twice the $1.5 billion originally targeted. It emerged in March that Ares were among a clutch of US firms offering funding for United as the Glazers explored a still unresolved sale of the club. On Friday, a report on the Bloomberg newswire, and subsequently verified by Telegraph Sport, detailed how the firm is discussing making an offer for a deal at Stamford Bridge. Ares and Chelsea declined to comment. A source told Telegraph Sport that the club is approached by investors regularly. The preference for Boehly and Clearlake is understood to be an equity investment, but there is no certainty the club will agree on a deal. If any deal was ever agreed, it would be directed towards “growth prospects” including a new stadium project and the multi-club model. In recent days Ares confirmed it had put an extra $75 million (£58.8 million) into David Beckham’s Inter Miami CF following the arrival of Lionel Messi. Other investments include Atletico Madrid and Eagle Football Holdings, a multi-club owner that backs Crystal Palace and Olympique Lyonnais. Clearlake Capital and Boehly have spent more than £600 million on new players since completing their purchase of the club from Roman Abramovich last May. There has been a feeding frenzy for English football within the US investment sector in recent years, with around half of Premier League teams and at least 13 of the remaining 72 EFL clubs having significant American backing. On Thursday, Tom Brady, the five-time Super Bowl MVP quarterback, was announced as a minority owner at Birmingham City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
