As a Spurs fan I don't really have any sympathy for Frankie-boy's transfer antics but i'm starting to wonder if Fifa really are trying to hit English clubs unfairly.

First Eduardo. I agreed with the punishment but the way they went about it was completely cack-handed and doesn't seem to be proportionate across all the leagues. And now an unprecedented punishment for a very predecented infringement. Maybe the punishment was so severe because of the Cashley Cole tapping up.

That said i'd be surprised if the punishment isn't largely overturned. Same happened with Spurs when we were found guilty of financial irregularities due to a previous chairman. We had a 12 point deduction and FA cup ban successfully overturned.
