The Chamber of Patent Disputes of the Russian PTO on application of “Chelsea FC” (England) cancelled registration of the trademark copying the “Chelsea” club emblem. In 2005 “Parliament group” registered in Russia two trademarks, comprising the emblem and word “Chelsea” for the class “alcoholic drinks”. Now “Chelsea” football club decided to properly arrange the brand portfolio and took away their emblem from the Russian company, with which there were no formal relations. In turn, “Parliament Group” is going to negotiate possible cooperation with “Chelsea”.
