    The fault is not in the statistics themselves but in the people who use them unscrupulously to their own ends and in the “ignorant “ people who listen and read no further than the first sentence. It is a tool that is used against the people who have little knowledge of how they are arrived at and what valid conclusions can be drawn from them.

    Roman Abramovich, Chelsea owner, 'withdraws' UK visa application

    Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich has "withdrawn" his application for a UK visa, the BBC understands.

    A source close to the Russian tycoon said his application to extend his investor visa had not been refused or denied, as reported in the press.

    Mr Abramovich, 51, has put plans to build the club a new stadium on hold amid the delay to renew his visa, which expired some weeks ago.

    Israel has said the billionaire is eligible for an Israeli visa.

    The delay in renewing Mr Abramovich's investor visa came to light at a time of increased diplomatic tensions between London and Moscow, in the wake of the poisoning of former Russian spy Sergei Skripal in Salisbury.

    Reports suggest it expired three weeks ago.

    Changes to the visa process, which came into force in 2015, mean applicants may be required to prove the origins of their wealth.

    Rich list
    Mr Abramovich, who made his fortune in oil and gas in the 1990s, became owner of the companies that control Chelsea in 2003.

    According to the Sunday Times Rich List, he is Britain's 13th-richest man, with a net worth of £9.3bn.

    He is reportedly close to Russian president Vladimir Putin.

    On Thursday, Chelsea issued a statement saying the club had delayed work on the new stadium at Stamford Bridge because of "the current unfavourable investment climate".

    The estimated cost for the new 60,000 seat stadium has increased to £1bn after delays, which included a dispute with a local family.

    Do you have stats to back up that claim?

    She has probably shagged most of Salford by now.

    As much as she is fit and yes I would, I'm not into slappers.

    The attendance figures for city historically have been fairly consistent with one jump in 2003 coinciding with the stadium move - that seems fair enough as they then had greater capacity. Their avg. attendances were no higher following the buyout. They had regular attendances of 34,000 - 40,000 when they weren't winning anything.

    Chelsea attendances on the other hand have been all over the place. They've had yearly avg. attendances as low as 12,000, 13,000, 15,000, 17,000. Their attendances increased dramatically whenever they won anything. In a 5 year period ['94 - '99] it increased from 19,000 to 34,000 following 2 FA Cup wins. It has increased further and maintains a 41,000 avg. following the big money buy.

    btw - the comparison wasn't attendance figures between the clubs, which is what you've pointed out here. It was rise of attendance figures within each club and why that might have been.

    Do what I did - google it. He never lost the dressing room according to the reports I read. He made some very odd team selections and substitutions. Look, I don't know I'm just writing what I've read. You've decided he lost the dressing room based on the results not what was actually written about him. I would have thought you'd be pleased he never lost the dressing room - bodes well for you <ok>
