That Billion+ pound club

[grumpymort]

Heart-warming news coming out of Chelsea, they have decided to donate part of their World club cup winnings....to the family of Diogo Jota!
I am really lost for words.

I really hope that is a joke and not serious.

If it is serious its straight up ridiculous give a millionaires family even more money when there are other families in this country struggling and the money they would give this one family could go towards thousands.

I do feel for Jota family because of it being his fault breaking the law resulting in his plus brothers death I don't expect they will get insurance payout.

Do you always start your days with such a sunny disposition?

Could've been a tad worse if they'd donated to Trump who is their number one fan apparently.

Didn't they donate the World Club Championship trophy to him?
"Donate" might be a slight overstatement.

Sorry to be heartless. But why would the relatives of multi millionaire footballers need more money ?

At it again, it never seems to end.

• Gittens: €65 million - 7 years (sorry in Euros / pounds mix, I didn't feel like working out the conversion)
• Pedro: £60 million
• Delap: £30 million - 6 years
• Dario Essugo: £18.5 million
• Geovany Quenda: £44 million
• Estevao: €34 million
• Mamadou Saar: €14 million
• Kendry Paez: €10 million

It's ok they'll sell that hotel to themselves again to cover it off
