Todd Bohley or Clearlake?

?

Bohley owns aprx 10% of Cfc personally, along with the other investor/ owners. Hansjorg Wyss, Mark Walters, J feliciano, Behdad Eghbali.

Clearlake owns the controlling stake 60% aprx. ( Eghbali & Feliciano)

The news this weekend is that there is a spilt within the ownership of CFC.

The likelihood is that Clearlake will take control ,as they are the stronger partner, but that is not certain.

The good news is the ownership now publically recognise that the take over of the club has not succeeded , hence the split.

What will this mean for the direction of the club & the support?

Well some one will be carrying the can

Hopefully this will result in a more professionally focused approach to running the club.

What ever happens this will result in a certain amount of upheaval & depending on who emerges as the out right ownership the current strategy may be maintained, totally changed or tweaked.

devil,

I personally believe that this statement is honest & realistic.

The club that had averaged a trophy once a year the previous 20 years was "not well run on the football side"

I think its about going forward.

Bohley damaged the club so significantly in the first 12 months, he was simply not capable to steer the club back to top 4 status.

So if its him or Eghbali, i go with the latter , but its what he decides to do?

I think it is fairly straight forward, they stick to the money and bring top notch, qualified experienced footballing brains.

It is what the Emiraties have done at City, it is simple tbh.

But will that happen?

We're in far far too deep now...nobody is touching us

What we need is for the long term purchases to flourish & get back to winning ways & the CL

and that's an ask to say the least

Yeah, depending on what happens/ who gains control its going to be more ups/ downs & sideway moves imo.

We are stuck with one or the other for the foreseeable future.

Its for sure an unknown who has been influencing what over the last 2 years.

I hope whoever takes over gets rid of Winstanley & Lawrence and brings in a better level of sporting/ footballing brains.

In some ways it feels like we have been an experiment for these guys.

The good thing is that they have publically acknowledged what they have done has not worked.

Yep, though not an experiment for them cos they just lose money, an experiment for football in general. I'd actually be morbidly interested in what would happen here if this was another club.

Cos mental as it is there's definitely some intrigue to it. Can running a club the same way most fans approach a Football Manager or FIFA Career mode save actually come close to working in reality?

Such a shame José Feliciano's a Chelsea shareholder instead of a VAR official
