Since it is NOT allowed to talk about anything sporting outside of the sphere of football. I am going to attempt NOT to talk about basketball, Mark!
If it is unknown to many that Roman abramovitch has his fingers in a number of pies; be it gas, oil EPL football club, Russian football club and as a side thought at the same club CCKA Moscow he has a holding in their basketball club.
It is always good and pleasing to see that he is not getting his own way not only has his riches not guaranteed European success at Chelsea but also at CSKA Moscow where the football club is likely to lose their place in the Uefa final because of Hooliganism and also his Baketball adventure (Yes they have the largest budget in Europe) has gone belly up in the final four. It will be interesting to see whether or not he keeps pumping money into the club now that they have failed at home to get to the final and how in the future this can mirror his approach towards investing in Chelski.
Your thoughts on both Chelski and Abramovitch (but NOT basketball- cos they will lock the thread again!) will be appreciated.
By the way Macabee Tel Aviv Champions of Europe!!!! 2003-2004 and hopefully tonight 2004-2005 8) ops:
