@dhume@harshmadhusudan Don't disagree with the overall sentiment of your original statement. However reception during visits are often posturing and not conclusive. Recall Howdy Modi just 8-9 yr back and now compare the current dynamics. Think about the 'bonhomie' and patting to Munir/SS.
@MoeedNj The question is why are these terrorists in Pakistan in the first place. What leads to creation of these terrorists in thousands time and again in specific countries. It seems to be a recurring theme based on several factors but for PAK it seems also about intent to monetise it.
@Hamp_Allen Khalistanis are basically Pak Muslims deployed by ISI posing as Sikhs. They inturn brainwashed few idiots who want attention while also exploiting the political faultlines that are mismanaged by Indian establishment. With that said Khalistan in Indian Punjab has <1% support.
@bobbyfairview They have to monetize Stamford Bridge land which probably will finance half the cost of the new stadium at a different location. The rest has to come from naming rights and sponsorship deals while any balance has to be accounted as a term debt and managed through annual revenues.
Been a CFC fan for 40 years, my dad since 1957. Chelsea Supporters Trust member.
I’m open to staying at SB if it can be done. But I’m also not against Earls Court - if it’s possible.
First, it ensures Chelsea can compete for the biggest and best players and trophies long term financially.
Second, IMO we should be embarrassed we have a smaller stadium than SPURS. People wreck the liquidator song like fans of a tiny club, then are happy they have a bigger stadium.
Third, we’re a giant club, with incredible history - we deserve a stadium which reflects this and still retains the magic of being Chelsea.
Fourth, many clubs have moved stadium and kept their soul, and their history intact.
Finally, Earls Court is in the same area of London, same commute, same pubs etc.
There’s some who are so dead against us getting a bigger stadium they tell you EC impossible.
It’s very difficult, yes, but not impossible.
Billionaires & successful businessmen make sure they know these things. If it were totally impossible they’d 100% know already and have ruled it out.
The soul of Chelsea isn’t us being a tiny club, a small group of fans seem to prefer us acting like a small club whilst still winning like a big club. Well that’s not how football works now.
Big clubs have big stadiums, we have big commercial deals, we need to make big revenue. We need these to compete for trophies.
I believe we can do this and still keep our soul though. Through involving the CPO and Chelsea Supporters trust.
Which is what we need to do.
@InvertTheWing You need to leave. You should not be in a police station because your cab driver rammed another car. If there are no human fatalities, just leave. Make it very clear to the police that you are not concerned and you are passenger only.
@InvertTheWing Autism is nothing to be ashamed of. Don't get bothered by idiots online. We all are part of spectrum in some way or other. Just because many of us fall within the concentration range(mainstream), does not mean others are any way lesser or we are better.
Engagement farming has gone nuts
Even respected handles are commenting on an edited video of MEA spokesperson to show him eating snacks at 3X speed.
Boss, snacks are there to be eaten. Officials and incoming leaders and staff have been working round the clock over the past few days.
There is a video of even the NSA eating and people commenting trash. Just shows engagement farming attempts and how twitter is full of useless people.
@InvertTheWing@thfcDarrenlLee Awareness about autism has gone up in last 10-20 years. That might be a factor for individuals to look at things with a renewed perspective.
Beyond that, it is a personal matter between you and your family. X is really not the place to bring in sensitive personal matters I feel.
Gabriel is the most protected player in the entire league.
Gets away with diving, headbutting players in the face, kicking players in the face with no red.
