“I am selling the club, I can’t take it anymore,” Spinelli told the Corriere dello Sport-Stadio.

“I’m so tired of this world and want to just enjoy my weekends from now on, so no more football.

“Certain things make me nauseous and I can say that in the light of what happened in recent games. Some results, some games...

“People said that after Luciano Moggi and Calciopoli football had been cleaned up, but nothing has changed!

“Did you see Sassuolo-Genoa? There are four Genoa-owned players at Sassuolo and they’d have been forced to go back if the Neroverdi dropped out of Serie A. These things hurt.

“Livorno were damaged too, as the only real game last Sunday was Bologna-Catania.”

I thought lots of people did that as a kid...

it's hard to explain but as a kid we used to make arrows out of paper.. roll it up (a bit like a joint.. but with a sharper end) and then you would be able to blow it away as a dart..

We did the same, except we put a nail in the top of paper cone.

Good memories, and yeah there were few loonies that would put small needle at the top and shoot from balconies, or windows at pedestrians.

Never seen that before, guess I missed out.

You were probably too busy sulking at the time

good times :touched:

we used aluminium pipes though - light and strong. Used to dip the tip in glue or nail polish and it got real interesting :klin:

we used PVC... my father would saw it into pieces and build an assault rifle out of PVC and tape... good times :touched:

.... though i never came up with the idea to put something on the tip

I never intended to hurt anyone though... Someone told me a story of a boy who got hit in the eye with a dart and being blinded by it... after hearing that we all started bending the tip so it couldn't do that much damage if you actually got hit..

oh, yeah, that was some dangerous and downright barbaric stuff, especially with the nail polish on. Just some of the stupid and careless things we did as kids.
The fact that it's become relevant again in this thread, makes my heart bleed in regard to Serie A. Worst part is, I am not even mildly surprised.

Ballotelli should leave Italy, the balance would be restored.

petersmit · May 14, 2014

Italy will get better.. no need to worry about that... The economy in Italy will get better and then, with new stadiums and such, calcio will get better too...

the only thing is, is that it has to happen fast...
