QUOTE Inter Would Be Fourth Without Refereeing Errors - Study The table would look quite a bit different if there had been no refereeing mistakes this term, according to one study in Italy... 4 Mar 2009 18:17:12 The refereeing controversy in Italy has flared up again as a result of the recent 3-3 draw between Inter and Roma as well as comments made after the match by a number of interested parties.
According to a survey conducted by Observations on Arbitration Errors, in collaboration with Adiconsum, since the beginning of the 2008-09 campaign, 171 points would have been rearranged due to the 163 officiating mistakes.
The hypothetical rankings have Milan at the top of the standings with 53 points, plus five from their current tally, while the Fiorentina, would be in second spot with 51.
Meanwhile, Juventus would fall one place into third, having benefited from a few refereeing decisions this term and Inter would lose a rather significant 11 points from their current status, dropping down to fourth place.
Of course, this is just one study with it's own limitations, but certainly it's findings will fuel the criticism of the officiating throughout the peninsula. Reffing Errors in Italy - goal.com

I don't think it's completely an invalid excuse. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Maybe I wouldn't go so far as to say Inter must be fourth. But I will insist their lead wouldn't be so huge as it is now, if everyone got the same treatment.

Thing is, Miz, the article appeared in a Rome paper, not a Milan paper. Milan aren't leading the charge of 'Inter's getting reffing favors' this time.

EDIT: Actually, Channel 4 put it more nicely than I did. QUOTE Milan veteran Paolo Maldini refuses to enter the Jose Mourinho controversy but comments “for every trophy he has lifted, I have won five.”
Mourinho has caused outrage in the peninsula with disparaging comments at the expense of Milan, Roma and Juventus.
“I don't really want to prolong this exchange of insults,” Maldini said in La Gazzetta dello Sport.
“After all, it seems like Mourinho was harsher towards Juventus. But I just want to say that it doesn't work well for him when we look at trophies won.
“As far as I am concerned, during my years at Milan for every trophy he has lifted I have won five."

This is just another case of the media putting words in people's mouths. I hope Mou is smart enough to realise that if he responds to this, by insulting Maldini there will be hell to pay. Maldini is a national treasure and the papers would tear into him for it.
Sacchi's on Mou's side so it's not like Mou's all alone. I just think Jose should realise that Italy's got a different culture, and you don't go around calling people out. His team is doing well, why doesn't he just leave his talking on the field.
He started this feud with the media anyway. They liked him till he did the Ranieri - 'old man' stunt. Also when he refused to attend the media briefing saying this is how it's done in England.

I don't believe this is Maldini's exact words. He would not say something like this that way, if at all!
