Referee's have a hard job as it is, BUT these sort of tackles have to stop, and we see each week, where players go for the back of the legs etc. Straight red, and BANNED for the enitire time the other player is out for.

Which Manager said he asked his players to injure the opposition

He says the manager asked his player to take one of the opposition out. Perhaps they went for a nice meal, took in a movie then onto a nightclub

It's just Arthut's misinterpretation. that's gurranteed.

Fifa ban Chelsea from signing any new players for next two transfer windows for breach of rules

Headline on SSN. Never heard of this happening before, apparently it's to do with breaking a contract when signing Gael Kakuta from Lens.

They'll miss next summers window as well! They can't buy until next Christmas!

I hope this was a serious rule they breached, if it's something small then I shall be further annoyed with Fifa and Uefa

Again, Does anyone think this would have been done if it were European Football's Darlings Real Madrid?

I mean don't get me wrong, this was an awful thing to do and the question of big clubs poaching young players from the smaller ones in a way designed to reduce the compensation given to those small clubs is awfully poor practise when you consider the investment the smaller clubs put into them.

I almost spat my tea out laughing at that

Poor old Roman, not much chance of buying the Premiership now

Chelolsea.

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.

I don't think he'll have bought it this season, having only spent 20 million or so in the summer.

FIFA gave the same punishment to Roma not long ago for something similar so it's not really hitting English clubs unfairly. Roma appealed and it got cut to one transfer window, which i expect will happpen with Chelsea.

Chelski have previous in underhand dealings, Essien and Mikel are two that come to mind.

Good points. I would rep if I could, but I can't.

Arthurgray50@blu · 03-09-2009, 20:47

The manager was on Tv yesterday and he was in charge of a British club, thats all l am saying on the matter.

sherer · 04-09-2009, 08:43

there was also a Belgium club who got done for the same thing, although it was appealed and so they can still sign players at the moment.

Man U have done this in the past too and so have most of the other top clubs

Kymmy · 04-09-2009, 08:46

Yep, there's rumours that Man.U might be investigated for an illegal approach for Le Harve youngster Paul Pogba.

**Damien** · 04-09-2009, 08:50

Hope Arsenal aren't suspected of doing this. Better yet I hope they haven't ever done something like this
