Abramovich to Give Chelsea Away

Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich is said to have lost his football club in a card game last Sunday at Grosvenor Connoisseur Casino in London. According to a source in the casino security staff, the Chelsea Football Club was at stake in a poker game between Abramovich and some oil baron from Saudi Arabia whose name remains in secret. Under the gentleman's agreement, the Russian tycoon is to pass the club to the new owner by January 1, 2007 or pay off 300 million pounds to the lucky Arabian gambler. Abramovich, who is Russia's wealthiest man according to U.S. magazine Forbes, has spent about 240 million pounds on players since his 140 million pound takeover at Stamford Bridge in 2003. He has been certainly on the way to reforming the club. He allegedly intended to appoint Chelsea striker Andriy Shevchenko as the club's president. Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has even accused him of stifling the competitiveness of European football by spending on players and sky-high television rights deals. Now the future of both Chelsea and the international soccer remains unclear. But for Abramovich it may be simply a loss of the favourite toy, not a collapse. As well as investing in Chelsea, Abramovich, who is Governor of Chukotka, has injected much of his own money in building new homes and infrastructure for the previously impoverished region in Asian Russia. The Sunday Times once characterized Roman Abramovich as one of the world's most reckless and venturous businessmen. And up to a certain moment good luck was with him. Are gods now laughing at the Russian tycoon? His wife has reportedly begun divorce proceedings which could cost Abramovich half his vast fortune. Irina Abramovich is turning to the lawyers because of recent revelations about a romance between the Chelsea football club owner and a 23-year-old daughter of Russian billionaire Alexander Zhukov Well, this story may rate as Grosvenor Connoisseur's second best scandal this year. The first one one was at New Year's Eve, when a customer who usually spent around 50 pounds lost a reported 40,000 pounds. He lost his money then left the building and returned with a plastic bottle full of petrol. He emptied it over himself, spraying staff and gaming tables.
Liverpool are on the verge of agreeing to a takeover by one of the world's richest men in a move that would set the Merseyside club back on the road to being a football superpower. The club have confirmed they have given exclusive rights to Dubai International Capital (DIC) - a firm owned by the Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum, the ruler of Dubai - to launch a takeover bid.(soccernet.com).

HENRY: I LOVE THE LIVERPOOL FANS Paul Rogers 22 September 2006
Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has revealed his affection for Liverpool Football Club and the club's world famous supporters in an astonishing new interview.
Despite playing for one of Liverpool's biggest rivals, Anfield has always afforded the French international a warm reception in appreciation of his sublime skills and now it seems the feeling is mutual. The chance to see Henry play in the red of Liverpool rather than the red and white of Arsenal might have gone now but that hasn't stopped the striker admitting he's dreamt about what it would have been like to be one of the Kop's idols. "I could never play for another English club after spending so long at Arsenal but, maybe, if there could ever have been another team, it would be Liverpool," he said at the launch of 'Impact Art', a charity which looks after seriously ill young adults. "I say them because I would have loved to play with Steven Gerrard and then also I love their fans. "There is something special about Anfield which is amazing and, when I see The Kop with their scarves in the air, singing 'You'll Never Walk Alone', that is awesome."
