Nice to see DuckTales are famous in Italy. Great cartoons! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) Zamparini, I think is Glomgold, always a failure who never knew when to shut up. Even though I used to like the "Pink Black Attack" as a club, my appreciation for Palermo has gone real down because of this guy.

Last I heard, Rossi was seen crying. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif) Here's hoping he moves on to coach another club, he deserves better.

Zamparini is a joke. No-one takes him seriously in Italy anymore.

That happened a long time ago, the problem for everyone is, they have to deal with him because he signs players they all then want to sign.

They just can't get out of this mess can they? instead of going for someone like, say, Hiddink, they go for the cheap option that is Conte. I'll be REALLY surprised if it works.

Well, Conte has some good results to back him up, Ferrara had none. That's the main difference.

So did Del Neri. But I think Conte will do better, simply because Juventus will have a much stronger team next season than what they had this year.

Yep, but Delneri was an old geezer trying to prove he's a A class coach and he can win even with big clubs like Juve. While Conte is a prospect, still in his development.

No way is Conte a comparsion to Ciro....he knows what he wants and damn anyone who gets in his way, forget the Atalanta experience that just was a bad place to be at that time. He turned Bari around and has got Siena promoted under pressure for instant return to Serie A.
make no mistake the man is no fool...will Juve win the title....no but they will be a different team from last season for sure

No, man, I'm Albanian. Though I do currently live in Milan and I've bet my fair share a few times lately, with crap results. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Drinks spiked in betting scandal?


There are some bizarre allegations after 16 people, including Beppe Signori, were arrested in a betting scandal, including Inter-Lecce and drugged players.
This morning police swooped in several cities to break up what they claim is a betting ring that was involved in match-fixing, bribery, intimidation and even spiking drinks.

Former Lazio star Signori was named as the ‘ringleader’ by the court order and is now under house arrest, while others include Ascoli players Vincenzo Sommese and Vittorio Micolucci.

Atalanta captain Cristiano Doni is among those under investigation, but has not been arrested, while former Fiorentina midfielder Mauro Bressan and ex-Bari man Antonio Bellavista are also implicated.

The Cremona public prosecutors allege that at least 18 games between Serie A, B and Lega Pro were involved after examining unusual betting patterns.

According to the paperwork signed by prosecutor Guido Salvini, Signori is “the undisputed leader due to personal prestige in the Bologna area. He is involved in a betting ring on fixed games, placing €150,000 on the Serie A match Inter-Lecce.”

This is an interesting case, as the bets were for at least three goals in that Inter-Lecce game, but it ended 1-0 for the home side.

The result prompted alleged retaliatory attacks on those in the betting ring who had not done enough to ensure the fixture went as ‘planned.’

Brescia-Bologna on April 2 saw unusual betting patterns on a home victory, which emerged 3-1.

Another game pin-pointed was Atalanta’s Serie B 3-0 victory over Piacenza, which ended 3-0 on March 19. The prosecutors wrote that “Doni was one of those players who allegedly agreed the result with Piacenza defender Carlo Gervasoni. The second goal was a penalty from Gervasoni’s foul on Doni.”

It’s also alleged that both teams automatically promoted from Serie B this season, Siena and Atalanta, had games that were part of this betting ring’s focus.

Perhaps the most disturbing allegation is that Cremonese players had their drinks spiked ahead of the 2-0 victory over Paganese on November 14, 2010.

Several players and members of staff felt ill during and after the game, with some requiring hospital treatment. It’s alleged they were given sleeping draughts.


Never a dull moment in Serie A (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I'll still take this over la liga where the games might as well be fixed and the Prem where every piece of news is followed by a highlight reel of Gareth Bale vs Inert. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)
