Coltan supplied from the DRC make up about oh, 5% at MOST of world coltan supplies, the majority of coltan comes from Canada and Australia (you could also dispute the figures of aboriginal tribes that were killed in both nations to your blood coltan), however this is totally not relevant to anything we are particularly discussing with regards to English Football Finances.

However on the other hand, with regards to the oligarch situation in Russia.

Reminder that when they dissolved the soviet union that they gave all the workers shares in all the industries, however people like Roman however had been made well aware of what was going to happen under Yeltsin in advance and had pooled their money waiting to cash in on all these workers who had shares in these companies but no living wages with which to buy anything with.

Most were told to sell them to people like Roman or they wouldn't even have a job any longer, the great majority of the russians did not give up their shares willingly, but more out of the threat that they were going to suffer poverty and/or death if they did not, furthermore it's undocumented how many workers were actually killed or sent to the gulags during the period of Russia's volatile history where all the resources ended up in the hands of a rich elite few instead of still in the hands of all the workers where it was suppose to remain.

Of course the Western world could have intervened at any point, perhaps make their currency not worthless, provided aid, investment, but no, it's much easier to allow all the wealth concentrate in a few much more easily influenced individuals.

In short, gently caress Roman and every Russian Oligarch who capitalized on the end of Soviet Russia by forcing workers to part with their hard-earned shares so they could retain a means to earn a living. So tally up the whole population of russia to that 100 while you are at it as people who have been oppressed and threatened with death or killed by oligarchs.

Anyway this is all loving nonsense, we've had arms dealers, porn kings, oligarchs, oil sheikhs, real estate slumlords etc all own premiership clubs at some point and it's all been through the exploitation of millions of people. The Glazers aren't even any loving better if you investigate how much of their wealth has been generated through the exploitation of american tax-payers and blackmailing them with the threat of moving their franchise to another location.

They all need to loving die, plain and simple.

I mean at the end of the day, you're footy t-shirts are being made in some thailand sweatshop and those footballs you kicked around as a kid were sewn together by a 7 yo in bangladesh.

Football is loving corrupt at every level, let's not just pick on chairmen here.

In short all of football is indefensible in terms of morality.

Even the sunday league poo poo you play with your mates, you're all wearing clobber that makes you as morally bankrupt as stalin, hth.

However if you wanna dispute chairmen on a consequentialist basis rather than your feeble arguments showing you don't even understand enough about morality and what constitutes morally bankrupt, then by all means Gadymak was probably the worst on a consequetialist basis, followed by Mansour then Roman.

In short, Portsmouth had it coming.

Edit: Though feel free to switch Mansour and Roman around when Man City surpass Chelsea in terms of global branding and fanbase.

Call me when you find a successful football team that doesn't adhere to the principles of exploiting people all over the world.

There are plenty of successful businesses that do fair trade, don't use sweatshops, don't outsource, I mean not bountiful, but there are some and they are successful (and eventually get bought out by bigger corporations).

I've yet to find a professional football club that can adhere to those sort of principles though and be successful because at the end of the day, everything is ran by FIFA.

Even these fan based teams coming up the lower leagues are still at the end of the day kicking about a football made in a sweatshop.
