The Abramovich Takeover Story
Straight Outta Cobham: The Athletic FC's Chelsea show - Podcast tekijän mukaan The Athletic
This week, host Matt Davies-Adams and our resident Chelsea trio of Liam Twomey, Simon Johnson & Dom Fifield, reflect on the most significant moment in Chelsea's recent history: When Roman Abramovich bought the club back in 2003. Mark Taylor, corporate lawyer and one of the key players involved in the deal, reveals his first impressions of Roman, how Ken Bates really felt about the sale, how close Abramovich came to actually buying Spurs and the importance of *that* game against Liverpool... Unsurprisingly, Jesper Grønkjær is also revealed as this week's Cult Hero! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
