    It was glorious era. Chelsea always had World Class manager now they have Europa League manager under non Russian ownership.

    So offences from 2012 are being investigated now, after a decade.

    EITHER THE FA IS TOOTHLESS AND INCOMPETENT, OR THEY WANT THESE CORRUPT FUCHKERS TO KEEP POURING IN MONEY AS LONG AS THEY CAN.

    I think people are forgetting something important, that football is a sport not a business. Just because there are new owners, it shouldn’t forgive that sporting integrity was potentially breached.

    However if the new Chelsea owners did report several breaches then there should be mitigation and there should be some leniency. However they do need to be punished in sporting terms. There shouldn’t be fines because it is a different ownership.

      You have it backwards. Football is a business under the guise of being a sport. That is why improprieties like this continue with every club. $$$$

    So THEORETICALLY they will have points deductions for the seasons they are found guilty of this, and then stripped of any titles won in those years?

    Chelsea are easy target now. They won’t dare touch Utd’s dodgy Fergie era. Lets not speak of the new big boys City.

    The thing is that after City’s 115 charges and other stuff going on in the prem, the prem governing body will be looking to scrutinies certain teams to show that they have control over what goes on in their league. Obviously, City won’t get touched and clubs like Everton getting punished won’t send a big enough message of control. So Chelsea will probably be thrown under the bus to send that message.

      Chelsea already was thrown under the bus. The club was literally forced to be sold

    What an enormous surprise that all this wasn’t on the level. I could have told you that in 2005
