Chelsea wanted to ask you so at first I saw like the headline on social media

about the mass and deal and

an agreement and I was like oh wow

they achieved uh... an agreement

and maybe now they can sell the team and then I saw it was like half agreement is

what i'm gonna call it can you fill us in on what happened

yes so

for the last ten years or so

denazs and orals have been fighting in court over

what they hadn't paid of of the three hundred million that a committee said

they were owed
