This is true. What my point was no loan has ever been taken to pay wages. As far as I am aware. I would be open to stand corrected with valid sources though.

Neither me or the person I responded to mentioned loans to pay wages. Did you mean to respond to someone else?

[–] Frankenstein_3@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Ohh yeah, sorry. I am at work and saw wages pop up in some comments, and replied as per that. But I do agree, loans are taken to pay for transfer fees. It's standard for every major transfer irrespective of the club.

I mean yeah I get it, but that's leaving out a relevant historical context as to why those things happened.

I agree that Chelsea should not be seen as "where things gone wrong", but pointing out to Nazi Germany to say things have always been wrong just seems whataboutism with a really low bar
