Chelsea are appealing against UEFA's bans for Didier Drogba and Jose Bosingwa.

In ugly scenes after their Champions League exit to Barcelona, Drogba swore on live TV and Bosingwa called ref Tom Henning Ovrebo 'a thief'.

Disgraced Drogba was banned for six games, while Bosingwa copped a four-game suspension.

A Blues insider told The Sun: "The club have served notice to UEFA. That gives us a few more days to prepare our appeal."
