    How is my comments supposed to be an attack to anyone? What was I supposed to to say Massimo Moratti? Moggi is the reason Juve are in this state and he's being punished for his actions with a lifetime ban.
    Why? Because he forbidden Inter to smell the Sucedetto's smell for years?

    Wash your face, wake up, have a coffee, Moggi's Juve never needed a help to win a Scudetto. Inter needed Calciopoli to lift a fake trophy in their imagination.


    Best thing was after the Scudetto of 06 was handed to Inter, Cambiasso made a statement the 2nd day saying how good it feels to win a Scudetto and that he deserved it:lol2::lol2:

    There's a possibility that Lazio gets -6 points penalty because it was too obvious that they let Inter win. Serie B? :lol2:
    That will be great.

    Not because I strongly wish Lazio to play serie B. I don't care at all about them. But one of the main problems Italians are facing is that in the eyes of the neutrals and the majority of football fans, the Italian football is filled with match fixing. That alone is pushing the viewers away. I mean, why watch a fixed league?
    The English take proud in their fight till the last second no matter if they need the points or not. But in Italy, if both teams need a draw, it ends 0:0 or 1:1. If one team needs the pts while the other one doesn't, even if the team that doesn't need the pts is far too superior player-wise, the inferior team that needs the pts will win without any problems.
    If a team is punished for that and ends up in serie B, the others will think twice before doing something similar.
    In long term it will be useful Lazio to be relegated, even if in short term it might hurt Italy and its reputation (which is too low anyway).

    It's not just an Italian thing either, thinks of Denmark and Sweden, friendly teams will always do what is best for them.

    I agree in a sense, take Liverpool, their fans and some players might not have wanted to win the game but at least they were professional and gave it a go, especially Gerrard :D Then they just gave up at 0-1, but then that brings us back to the coach...... :shifty:

    As much as I hate Lazio, I think it is stupid unless they manage to prove that it was a match-fixing. Liverpool-Chelsea seemed to be a fixed match to a neutral fan too but it is not enough to penalize Liverpool because of that.

    It wasn't obvious to me at all. Lazio are a weak team. Inter are one of the strongest in the world. Lazio players actually weren't super motivated about that match (they don't want Roma win the title? Yes, that's probably the reason) but all this doesn't mean it was a match-fixing deserved to be penalized.

    The only thing that separated the Lazio v Inter game from the normal Serie A practice of teams 'taking it easy' when they don't need the points was the behaviour of the fans.

    Serie A should only punish Lazio if it is the start of them clamping down on all these type of games.

    Lazio players were only walking there, nothing else. It was clear that they don't want to play and how they want to let Inter win. Even Zarate was dribbling but later on he didn't do anything. Not just that, but the whole match was like on a backstage.

    Even though I'd like to see them in Serie B, ban or not, I don't really care. But if they wanted to let Inter win so Roma don't take the Scudetto, then they should have done some better job in hiding that.

    Lotito received a bullet in an envelope with a letter saying you better lose this game...players told to lose by the Nazio fans...Pretty sick. Kolarov called them out on this.

    yet in the same season they have managed to win the super coppa against the same team that "won" fairly against them.. Oh yeah, don't let the scoreline fool you Lazio played way better than Inter that game.

    PS. it's either I am right or damn Sneijder was THAT good of a buy :p

    They were walking on the field not running.
