Whether or not the #NoToRicketts marketing campaign had some impact or not stays to be seen as of but, however I’m inclined to consider that it completely did/is having an impact.

Boehly’s group have all the time appeared to be the perfect general consortium to purchase Chelsea for a lot of causes, and most Blues followers nonetheless consider that is the case. However there may be an outsider arising the rear who the 2 favourites shall be firmly trying over their shoulders at proper now, and that’s Stephen Pagliuca.

Two vital developments have occurred at this time that actually does push them up there with the main contenders to purchase Chelsea.

To start with, John Terry’s True Blues consortium got here out and introduced that they’re publicly endorsing Pagliuca’s bid and backed them. That is large information alone and can make Pagliuca’s group very fashionable for a lot of causes.
