In all the hullaballoo of West Ham being taken over by Kia Joorabchian, in most likelihood, a proxy for Roman Abramovich, the name Boris Berezovsky is bandied about quite a bit. Who is Berezovsky? He is Abramovich's partner in their company, Sibneft, now called Gazprom Neft, one of Russia's biggest oil producing and refinining companies. Sibneft through the process of perestroika, was auctioned of to private investors. He is ... a partner along with Abramovich, in Kia Joorabchian's Media Sports Investment (MSI), the company negotiating with West Ham in a buyout of the club. MSI also controls Brazilian club Corinthians, Carlos Tevez and Javier Mascherano's former club before joining West Ham.

Roman Abramovich is best known as a Russian billionaire. He owns the investment company Millhouse Capital, the English Premiership football team called Chelsea Football Club, and is the governor of Chukotka in Russia. Despite his influential status in sports, oil, and politics, Abramovich is relatively private, granting few interviews over the years and making almost no public statements about his life or work.

Whatever the case, it would be nice to think people might abandon the bizarre suggestion that Abramovich should follow up the Shed end visit by explaining himself to a suppporters' association meeting. Certainly he should. But unless those calling for such a development are recent head trauma victims, they ought to have realised that Roman Abramovich and a sense of obligation parted company some time ago.

Since Roman is only 4 years old his early life is ... his entire life. Most experts agree that his life has so far been "eventful" especially his campaign to move the Sun closer to his house. He had a near-death experience when he was only 2, when his helicopter became entangled in Madonna's hair above Buckingham Palace. The Queen complained about the noise but Abramovich bought her voice box and she was quickly silenced. The Duke of Edinburgh said he was glad to have some peace at last.

In September 2007, the French newspaper Le Figaro claimed that Abramovich was the previously unidentified customer of an Airbus A380 Superjumbo.[36] This was ... later rebuffed. Roman Abramovich is also a big fan of Mixed Martial Arts. He has shown interest in the past about buying a promotion. [37]

Remember when Abramovich first came to England and courted Thierry Henry? He could not get him. Then, this summer, Arsène Wenger changed his mind, sold Henry to Barcelona and emerged with £16 million and the most well-engineered Arsenal team in four years. By comparison to the experienced operators, Abramovich appears an innocent abroad.
