I guess it seems a little harsh. Liam Send a noteboard - 03/09/2009 03:21:41 PM
I mean, on one hand, tapping up is something that has needed to be dealt with for a while, and in a stricter way than those ridiculous fines, but at the same time...it possibly sets precedent for a whole slew of complaints, and I imagine most clubs are guilty of something or other.

Plus it sort of sucks that it's over a player I've never even heard of.

It'll be interesting to see if any other European clubs ever receive a similar punishment too *coughrealcough*.




I don't know what's wrong with me lately, I've been feeling rather gentle toward Chelsea. I need to snap out of it.

Don't be mean to Russell and Frankie Monkey - 03/09/2009 06:49:59 PM 513 Views
