There Is A God...

The London Borough of Hammersmith is officially Chelsea-Mad's new best friend... for finding a way around this stupid groundshare proposal!

No, they haven't found a new home for Fulham... they have found some contractual problems that make it looking very unlikely that Fulham will play at the Bridge next year- except of course for their now annual drubbing!

"We haven't yet received a planning application concerning Fulham - and the planning rule is that Stamford Bridge is just for Chelsea.

"If Chelsea want to change or waive the rule, they would need to put in a planning application. We would then consult local residents, a process which could take up to six months."

Six months? The new season will have started by then, I hear you say. Thank God for that...
