Please not, why should the players be punished?

Hello - calciopoli? :frown:

Fans stir up stuff, the team pays the price. It happens quite often -- think of all those games Roma had to play behind closed doors, or when Inter had to forfeit to Milan in the CL semi-finals. Clubs claim they cannot control the actions of an unruly crowd, and administrators say the clubs don't do enough to ensure security on the grounds.

Yes, I know, but I'm with the players in the first place. It happens differently most of the time though.

Week 12 games rescheduled

Inter-Lazio and Roma-Cagliari have been rescheduled after they were postponed in the light of last weekend’s tragic events.

The San Siro clash between leaders Inter and struggling Lazio and high-flying Roma’s encounter with Cagliari will now take place on Wednesday December 5 at 7.30pm.

Both games were called off when 26-year-old Lazio fan Gabriele Sandri was accidentally shot by a police officer at a motorway service station near Arezzo.

It is still uncertain whether the Serie A campaign will be suspended or not. Serie B and C games were cancelled this weekend, but Euro 2008 qualifiers mean that there are no top-flight games scheduled.

In Scotland, clubs are responsible for the behaviour of their fans. If a club's fans cause trouble, the club can be fined or have points deducted. I have to admit that Scottish fans have not caused as much trouble as their Italian counterparts.

In recent years perhaps.

Remember the 1980 Scottish Cup Final?:eyebrows:

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

since they have resheduled the fixture dates, i'm assuming that they're pallning to resume theleague after the international break, or else they would have to find more dates to reschedule, and that would be very difficult with the congested calendar. especially in a euro tournament year.

Top names will shun Italy if violence goes on - Kaka


MILAN, Nov 13 (Reuters) - Top players will shun Italian soccer if fan violence and other scandals continue to dog the game there, AC Milan playmaker Kaka said on Tuesday.

Kaka, who plays for AC Milan, was shocked by the hooliganism that forced his side's game at Atalanta in Bergamo on Sunday to be abandoned after seven minutes.

The violence followed the shooting of a Lazio fan by a police officer following scuffles with Juventus supporters at a motorway service station. Police said the shooting was accidental.

"All these acts of violence risk distancing the top players from our Serie A," the 25-year-told told Gazzetta dello Sport from Brazil, where he is preparing to visit Peru for a World Cup qualifier on Saturday.

"The world class players want to play in great teams and in Italy there are some of the most prestigious clubs in the world. But they are also looking for joy and enthusiasm."

Top names had already begun to head to Spain and England rather than the once-dominant Serie A following a match-fixing scandal two years ago, dubbed Calciopoli, and the killing of a policeman during riots outside a Catania match in February.

"First Calciopoli, then the police officer killed in Catania. Now this new tragedy. A fan killed while he was going to see a game," he said.

"Italy is losing credibility. The list is becoming too long."

Real Madrid spent most of the close season trying to tempt AC Milan to sell prized asset Kaka, who has admitted a move to the Bernabeu might interest him.

He did not say if the latest events in Italy could force him to leave but described the scene after the players had left the field at Atalanta as fans tried to break down a barrier keeping them from the pitch.

"Inside our dressing room there was a frightened silence. I tried to understand what was really happening.

Is it me or Kaka has been waiting for such an incident to state this? Isn't obvious that he's dying to play in Spain for Real?

 

[HelterSkelter]

Its not just you.Kaka could well use this as an excuse to leave Milan on the basis of 'security fears' and shit.

 

[Fred]

i think it would ba an extremely stupid move for Kaka to leave Milan for Madrid.

 

[HelterSkelter]

Stupid,but understandable to an extent.High or Low,the aura of greatness that Real Madrid offers is unmatched.

 

[Fred]

No i mean..he has everything in Milan..the fans love him..he's the star of the team..he;s doing very well..why would he leave??Its kind of like Shevchenko

 

[HelterSkelter]

Because its Madrid i guess.Real Madrid will always be a more attractive institution than Milan IMO.

Wednesday 14 November, 2007
Kaka has surprisingly admitted that he could be forced to quit Italy if violent scenes persist in the nation’s stadiums.

What a fucking pussy.

Thats what I thought. This could be a great excuse for Kaka. I've been following his statements since a while now, he's always hinting for a madrid move.

There's been hints of him leaving for a while. I think he wants to leave and is looking for the "right excuse"!

 

[Dostoevsky]

Still he could think of something better since this excuse makes him pussy.

 

[HelterSkelter]

He looks like a 14 year old pussy anyway who got bullied in school with other guys running away with his lunchbox.

Precisely what I was thinking: Sheva II, the Horror Continues.

 

[HelterSkelter]

I expect Kaka to be more succesful at Madrid than Shevchenko has been at Chelsea though.
