Chelsea sack manager Graham Potter after fewer than seven months in charge
Chelsea have sacked manager Graham Potter after seven months in charge of the club

-
- Mr. Tomlinson's feud started after members of the now-defunct Reddit site r/opieandanthony got his Twitter account suspended, causing him to threaten some bored trolls who never heard of him with a libel lawsuit. The trolls responded predictably.
- Mr. Tomlinson has been instructed many times by friends, family, police, and attorneys to stop engaging with his trolls, and that continuing to provoke them will cause him to be trolled even more. Mr. Tomlinson wilfully ignores this advice
- He would eventually file a defamation suit against 60 anonymous people which was dismissed with Mr. Tomlinson being ordered to pay $34,762.25 for opposing parties' attorney fees.
- He ended up paying $83,736.99 due to his unsuccessful attempts to dodge the court-ordered judgement, for which he faced jail time and contempt charges.
- He also filed 2 frivolous restraining orders against people who had engaged in First Amendment-protected behavior (one for texting him and another for attending his contempt of court hearing), both of which were dismissed.
- Early on in the lawsuit, Mr. Tomlinson vandalized his own motorcycle and submitted a false police report blaming the people he was suing.
- He accidentally sent surveillance video of the alleged vandal (himself) to a troll.
- Mr. Tomlinson has never shown this video footage during any of his media tours, and desperately tries to scrub it from the internet.
- Mr. Tomlinson claims that the surveillance video was initiated by his "motion-activated" camera, which only collects "30 seconds at a time", despite the video being 32 seconds long and beginning several seconds before the "vandal" enters into the frame.
- On 13 April 2023, the individual responsible for calling the fake emergencies (SWATs) to Mr. Tomlinson's house, a SWAT-for-hire dealer named "Torswats", revealed that Mr. Tomlinson ordered the SWATs to his own house because he wanted to get in the news and sue the MPD for money.
- Torswats would repeat these allegations in private chats which were not intended for public view.
- Mr. Tomlinson has gone on multiple news tours since the SWATtings started in order to promote his victimhood brand, utilizing the services of Lenora Claire.
- He also recently sued the MPD for money.

Imagine firing two managers and spending 600m on transfers all within 1 year and you're still 10th.
The only sport I care about is raping...
imagine laundering money and propping up the Ukraine with Abramovich's funds
Rumours are he recorded one of the scouts taking a shit.
Imagine trying to beat Arsenal by offering £89m to sign some shitter from the Ukrainian league who had one good season playing against plumbers, and then Arsenal buy Trossard for £27m.

Ahh, the grand game. Steeped in honor and tradition.
I'm an Arsenal but what were they thinking on spending that much for Mudryk. Good thing Chelsea came and took him instead.
He had a good season with Shaktar and had a good showing in the CL. So there was a lot of hype about him, i think Arsenal were willing to pay £70 for him lol.. but obviously Shaktar wanted to get every penny they could and Chelsea/Todd Boehly are retards and agreed to outspent Arsenal. He's got like a 7 year contract with Chelsea too, along with another 4-5 young players brought in this January. That's how Chelsea got away with paying so much, they are spreading the money out over 7+ years.. it's sneaky but can backfire if the players end up being duds, your left with someone on a long contract and high wages lol.
He might end up being alright once he settles in, but he isn't worth £89.. especially since he hasn't played at a high level, Arsenal really dodged a bullet and ended up with a much better PL proven player for a fraction of the price.

Keep in mind the British government forcibly confiscated Roman Abramovich's (Russian oligarch) holdings in the club.
Basically they stole a russian billionaires money...thug shit (but the English FA then masquerade as fedora-tipping gentry)

Abramovich is a jew, but Chelsea fans say he was a good owner who cared about the club. I remember the media was screeching about him because he was involved in steel production in Russia or something like that, and they said the steel was being used to create weapons and keep the Russian war effort going. It's ironic really as there are a few clubs in the PL owned by Arab oil barons including MBS who apparently orchestrated the Khashoggi assassination. There was like 2 weeks of screeching about that and then it stopped.
Russia really is the NPC's bogeyman right now lol.
It's always funny when Americans come in and completely misunderstand how to run a football club. They have spent insane amounts of money, tied players down to contracts that just won't work in football, and still need a new stadium that'll cost 2 billion and within 6 months of all of this are mid table also rans
They have replaced him with Sam on a temporary basis.
How can you even enjoy top flight football? We're relatively heading there* but the English league is a fucking joke lol
"Cmon random frenchnigger who's going to be here for a season, play like you mean it!"

That's what international football is for. I know Americans can't find many other countries who want to play their local sports though.
Most sides will have a handful of players who came through the youth system but even they may not really truly be locals who grew up supporting the side when that does happen that player is loved forever
