Chelsea have released a statement: Dodge Send a noteboard - 03/09/2009 05:07:33 PM
Chelsea will mount the strongest appeal possible following the decision of FIFA's Dispute Resolution Chamber over Gaël Kakuta.

The sanctions are without precedent to this level and totally disproportionate to the alleged offence and the financial penalty imposed.

We cannot comment further until we receive the full written rationale for this extraordinarily arbitrary decision.


How much to bet FIFA fine Chelsea for this statement? ;)
