Roman Abramovich's plans for a new £1billion stadium for Chelsea could be derailed by the objections of just one family and their 'right to light'.
In a David vs Goliath battle, the Crosthwaite family took a High Court injunction back in May over fears the towering stands of Chelsea's rebuilt 60,000-capacity home at Stamford Bridge will block out the sunlight from much of their property.
Chelsea have now called on the local council to intervene and try to sidestep the objection, with the possibility that compulsory purchase powers will be required to ensure Europe's most expensive stadium goes ahead as planned.
