LONDON - The bad week does not seem to want to end, now the relief of Ray Wilkins. After the defeat of Liverpool, Drogba of malaria and the wish to leave Stamford Bride another bad news grips the Chelsea fans. With a cold note, the company is making incomprehensible the well-served by one of the men who made the history of this club, first as a player and then as a coach. Ray Wilkins is gone, but he can do it head-on, others not.
"The board of directors decided not to renew the existing contract to Ray Wilkins, with immediate effect. On behalf of the club would like to thank Ray for all he has done for Chelsea Football Club We all wish him well for the future". This bitter comment made by the Chief Executive Ron Gourlay, through an official statement on the official website.
Wilkins made his debut with the shirt of Chelsea at the age of 17, becoming captain of the Blues after just two seasons being so soon star of the team and a reference point for each player who arrived at Stamford Bridge in a historical context is not easy for Chelsea in that era. He held the armband until 1979, collecting a total of 179 appearances and scoring 30 goals with the shirt also blues. Great is the estimate for the player, is given by executives from the players so much that Ray gets Player of the Year for two consecutive seasons, the 1976 and 1977. In 1979, however the farewell at the end of its sixth season it was sold to Manchester United. A good thing for all parties involved, for a player of value in the United midfield for Wilkins the opportunity to go to a club with very different ambitions and to land in Italy. And Chelsea? The ability to collect 825 thousand pounds, a record for the time, that you can re-establish a society that is now in disarray from the economic point of view. Wilkins, however, do not forget, in the 1998-1999 season and is invoked by the new media companies such as Gianluca Vialli that was soon to become coach of Stamford. Valuable assistance of the former Sampdoria striker, so that the same Vialli takes him as faithful collaborator in 2001-2002 when he became manager of Watford. A new back then, in the 2008-2009 season, a very troubled season. Before giving support to newly coach Scolari, then in February 2009 trying to stop a crisis of results going to the bench after his dismissal by Scolari. Then, as in every fairy tale, the calm after the storm. The arrival of the first Hiddink, then Ancelotti, with whom Wilkins puts in row 2 FA Cups, two Premier League and a Community Shield.
NOTE TO FOX - The whole thing really made me angry. Before the story of the new stadium, with 60-70 thousand seats so you gain more. Now this exemption is appalling that more than mysterious. And confirmation that His Majesty Abramovich, so committed to wanting to build a nightclub stage in order to amuse the shit when it seems, is slowly circling a herd of morons accustomed to seeking personal gain and indifference the fate of a historic club.
Hey, ex-Soviet, you're really breaking my balls. Keep going, keep taking the piss out of fans, those who spend money for Chelsea and spit blood. Sooner or later someone a kick in the ass I'll spring, the waiting list is very long.
