Taken from https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/54727569 Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich paid £247m into the club in the 2018-19 season but they still made an overall loss of £96.6m. |

Inclined to agree. Love a good Bovril and Beet Bovril would be a nice stock based salty drink too. FVR though... |

Personally I think it’s a brilliant bit of marketing/PR by both club and company. Which given my meaty background may come as a surprise to some. I see it as similar to alcohol free beer, clearly a market for it, whether it establishes itself in the grocery market is another thing. You wouldn’t have out of choice would you?

No you're correct, the marketing is great it is all a great fit and I would certainly buy a jar. I think it's just because it's FVR or should I say, it's linked to an owner of a club who talks about making diamonds from the sky...Yes Dale - it's called LSD. On a serious note, I think it's a good idea. Just Vince is a cunt. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/oct/30/ecotricity-founder-to-grow-diamonds-made-entirely-from-the-sky |

Not sure about wrong but this is quite interesting (albeit a bit Fast Show at times) and just shows the gulf even between L1 and Championship

Because we contacted Public Health England who over ruled the EFL/FA and all the other useless twat bodies who milk that game and ruin it for the paying masses. Fuck me I sound like a socialist. |

Because we made more of an effort to have it called off than they did? |

I just don’t understand why there are no standard rules about postponing a game due to Covid. Hardly seems fair on Burton.
