Chelsea's shirt sponsor Three SUSPENDS their £40M deal after the UK government sanctioned Roman Abramovich - and analysts warn Nike, Hyundai and Hublot could ALSO ditch the Blues to avoid 'guilt by association'
Why now , why not before the government took action on Roman ??
Seems a bit drastic. How far do you take that sort of thing?
Think its call good PR rather than anything meaning ,I rather the sponsors drop their resources and money into UkraineQuote:

Even the Cardiff Philharmonic have joined in by banning the playing of Tchaikovsky’s music over the invasion

Boney M Rasputin soon to be pulled from all radio play!
Putin stated a fortnight ago that any sanctions imposed deemed too extreme would be viewed as an act of war. Perhaps he was bluffing.Quote:
