I listened to a thing yesterday and it said that the Chelsea women’s football team is not owned by Chelsea, same as the London City Lionesses became seperate to Millwall…..I don’t know how many other clubs that’s it true for but I genuinely never knew that, just assumed they were part of the same club.

They have to raise their own funds and find their own investors……weird set up mate. 

Not owned by Chelsea but using their name ?.....these birds teams all have an affiliation to mens clubs in some way or another as nobody would be interested..... investors are not daft they're not going to throw money at 11 random treacles taking a break from the ironing......too far ? :laugh:

Local media got a fairly decent picture of the boy the other night, worth a share I thought 

My nine year old grandson has just been accepted for a football academy in Saudi Arabia. His first competitive game his team won and he scored the winning goal and was “man of the match”; H

I had a go at that walking football it turns out im not a bad player

The club sold the team to the clubs holding company and they then sold off shares in the team.

I’m sure it’s all an elaborate accounting scheme way above a simple hawker like mes pay grade, but yup, Chelsea FC don’t own the team…..a completely separate entity mate.

Mental isn’t it.

But it stemmed from Chelsea FC......it wasnt 11 sorts out of the launderette got together and formed " Blonde Ballers "

They rode the back of one of the most famous football clubs in the world and then said " we're doing this all on our own "

Oh absolutely, same as all the others with this women’s team PR exercise….. I’m sure it all makes sense to marketing offices somewhere.

Well in just over 2 hours time Southend United could be heading back into the football league after years of turmoil and near bankruptcy’ at Wembley today in the playoff final which they only scraped into the playoffs by one point.

All the best against Oldham today.

COME ON YOU SHRIMPERS

It was a shame, they were less than ten minutes from winning in extra time at 1-2 and then Oldham scored two in two minutes to take it Southend had already gone to extra time twice in the two previous playoff games to get to Wembley.

Hopefully we will be back next year as you say there’s a never say die spirit at Roots Hall even though they can be hard to follow some times.

You didn't mention them playing like that before 😁I'm sure I could take a interest if they were the rules I may have been a bit to hasty there 😂
