Chelsea Transfer Ban?????!!!!!

Hey,
Sorry have been traveling a lot to field locations over the last week or so, so haven't made any recent postings. But I just saw this:

I am sure you have noticed already. Apparently due to a signing Chelsea made two years ago they now cannot sign anyone for two transfer windows as a result. If this is true (and of course if it is upheld after they inevitably appeal) than it could be huge. Chelsea are old and have generally done very poorly in bringing in youth players with potential to step in. So if they can't sign anyone until January 2011, it will create some serious problems for the start of next season. Most likely any big names left will go over the next summer window (Ribery, Villa) so not to be able to use that to purchase anyone will help strengthen the rest of the teams hugely, while Chelsea will be left behind. I don't know all the details, but it seems very odd to me that Chelsea got nailed with this, and not just a huge fine (maybe FIFA finally realized that huge fines mean nothing to some teams). But surely Chelsea couldn't have done anything different or more extreme than Man U when stealing Macheda or the most recent 16 year old? I didn't hear about this court case until now, while at least three of Man U's youngsters have created court cases. Surely if Chelsea get nailed like this so should Man U? I would love to see both of them get frozen out of the transfer window like this, especially since both failed to sign any big names over the summer. Man City and Real Madrid would eat up all the rest of the players and it could have long term effects on the table. I still think Chelsea will win the league this year even if this goes through. And honestly I don't think the transfer window ban will stick. FIFA is notoriously lacking backbone and will most likely reduce it to a fine, but we can always hope!
