I understand that Chelsea was the first club to pull out.
I read on another forum of which I'm a member that the pitch at Chelsea, as distinct from the Stamford Bridge ground, is actually owned by the membership. The guy who claimed this sai he was one of a pretty big consortium who own it, and that since the fans didn't want t, there would be an almighty legal row between the club, the owner of Stamford Bridge, and the fans.
For all I know he might have been talking complete bollocks, and ICBA to find out, but it sounded mildly interesting and plausible. Maybe someone on here knows?
