Soulless
An article at the Telegraph about Chelsea Football Club has received a fair bit of coverage lately. There's quite a lot of bile in it, but you can't help but feel it has a point. Here's the money paragraph:
West Bromwich Albion is a football club. Accrington Stanley is a football club. Chelsea has not been a football club for some while. It is a vanity publication, run by vulgarians for whom modesty is a badge of shame, and underwritten by a rich man whose loyalty to a foreign investment cannot be taken for granted.
Me? I blame Chelsea's success on the collapse of Communism.
