But that's part of the problem. Taardad Maiden Send a noteboard - 04/09/2009 11:34:34 PM
That only reinforces my thinking that their punishment is going to stand. Especially if FIFA is serious about stopping it throughout the sport.


added emphasis mine.

That's just it: nobody really feels FIFA is serious about ending such practices. It is my personal opinion that FIFA looks the other way for teams like Real Madrid and Barcelona and lingers overlong on English teams.

Just sayin'.
