When Malcolm’s mother Hannah died in 1980, she left an estate worth $1m. Litigation erupted soon after, the court battle over the will ensued, passing through six judges and has gone on for an incredible 24 years.
At one point when the opposing attorney left the room the stenographer recorded Glazer saying: “We have got to keep going until there is no money in this estate.†He has said he meant that his sisters were intent on running down the estate. In 1986 he was ordered to pay fees of $268,299 and a judge said his “intentional and prolonged non-compliance with the court’s reasonable orders†had cost his sisters.
That's the type of man he is, lets hope and I do genuinly mean it, that no such nonsense occurs when he dies.

Ah yes! So much of a fan, he hasn't attended a game at the bridge since the defeat to Spurs in the league cup final.

Has Malcolm ever attended a match? Besides if I were a Chelsea fan I'd be more concerned if he weren't present at the first match of next season, big things are about to happen there for sure, whether they win a trophy this season or not

Do you honestly believe Roman is in it, for anything other than profit? Surely, if he was in it for the love of the game, he would have bought a club a couple of thousand miles further east.

I thought his cash was proping up CSKA Moscow? And considering how much he has spent I can't see him ever getting a return on his investment so I say he weren't in it for the money.
