    reminds me of a legendary quote by Harry Redknapp on the chances of Pochettino managing Arsenal, Pochettino had managed their biggest rivals, Tottenham.

    “You think the fans wouldn’t love him there? If you go in there and start winning, they would have taken Saddam Hussein in there when he was about, the fans don’t give a monkey's! If you start winning every week, they’re singing ‘there’s only one Saddam’.”

      You had the Chelsea fans chanting Roman Abramovich's name during the solidarity for Ukraine bit today. Given how the average brit seems to be baying for nuclear annihalation it was a bit surprising.

        He brought success, and any bad stuff he's done doesn't really register in the mind of the common football supporter. Let alone a Tory infested fanbase like Chelsea's (i am of course generalizing for dramatic effect)

      lol also true within sports. I remember when people were saying the Atlanta Hawks (NBA team) passed on Luka Doncic in the draft because they didnt want a white person heading the atlanta team and lol i can safely say nobody gives a FUCK who leads the atlanta hawks as long as they get some decent wins
