Funny how Ken yon was saying just a year ago hat Chelsea was going to be profitable w/in 5 years. Then they have yet another big spending spree this summer buying Bridge's long lost brother Del Horno, Shaun Wright-Philips & then Essien. And unsuprisingly the talk about making a profit in 5 years has gone away. Now it's some vague sometime down the road.

Face it, Abromvich has lost hundreds of millions on Chelsea. The solution isn't for more clubs to find a sugar daddy. Most people that make that kind of money got their because they understand ROI and don't want to loose their shirt even if the team is their toy. There simply are not more Abromovich's out there.
