So Chelsea have just announced that the stadium redevelopment is on ice.
In some ways this is good because it puts off four years of upheaval and the chance of me popping my clogs before that occurs has just inccreased. In addition, match day revenue is probably losing its impact with increasing television revenues and sponsorship - which relates alost exclusively to television.
The worry is the committment of the club not to move beynd six miles of Stmford Bridge which, when given was well received and then forgotten in the excitment of the redevelopment. It shoudln't have been an issue as £11 billion spent on a new groound would have anchored us, in practical reality, in SW6 for the foreseeable future. The point is that the promise was time limited to 2020.
With the redevelopment shelved, a move could be back on.
Israel? Tel Aviv?
The TA Blues?
We will hacve to form AFC Chelsea.
