On what grounds have they been reduced, 'ah, well, it's not as bad as we thoght it was' :rolleyes: should have been increased. they should have had larger bans in the first place. what sort of precedent is that showing to everyone else? |

tbh he gave drogba a yellow card, which meant that technically they shouldn't have been able to ban him further and its only group games, as liverpool showed 2 seasons ago u can not win your first 3 and still top the group |

What a joke UEFA are. Why had out bans and then not stick to them, it's just made them look even more of a laughing stock than they already are.

Its a forking joke, if it was the FA it would have been thrown out in contempt and extended. |

Instead of reducing their punishments, they should have said no we got it wrong i nthe first place and given Ballack a ban as well... |
