Peter Hill-Wood has angrily called Chelsea's aspirations of being the best in the world as being "fantasy". Roman Abramovich and Peter Kenyon have set out to make Chelsea the best club in the world by 2014. But Hill-Wood has hit out at such claims...
"I found it very surprising Chelsea only had 25,000 for a Champions League game," said Hill-Wood in the Daily Mirror.
"Our fan-base probably started in the thirties and it's been handed down from father to son and so forth.
"It takes 100 years to build and about 100 minutes to destroy. You've got to be careful you don't destroy it.
"Money is irrelevant to history and how big your club is. Maybe not irrelevant, but it's better not to have too much money because you then don't go and squander it.
"It's bull****. I don't want to run Chelsea down, but one has to concede Manchester United and Liverpool are probably the biggest names in UK football and probably throughout the world.
"For Chelsea to think they are suddenly going to dominate Manchester United and Liverpool is fantasy. It's not going to happen."
