Well well well..
Don't know if there's any truth to this, but to me, right now, it seems that what we have been saying for so long starts to show.. We have gone down to Serie-B for absolutely no reason. The Serie-A is still crooked, at least according to this man.
Zampa in new quit threat
Sunday 4 March, 2007
Maurizio Zamparini announced he’s looking for a new Palermo President after the controversial refereeing in the Sicilian derby.
“I was told that the referee had a huge influence on the game,” said the patron after the 2-0 defeat to local rivals Messina.
The opening goal was offside, while two Rosanero penalty shouts were waved away and Andrea Caracciolo saw red for dissent.
“I am leaving football and this time I am not joking,” assured Zamparini, who is not new to such threats.
“I’m looking for a new President to take charge of Palermo. I think the problem might be me and not Palermo per se. An honest and clear person like me is not suited to this type of football.”
Zamparini is currently in Brazil due to business commitments, but joined the chorus of disapproval from Palermo.
Referee Stefano Ayroldi was also bitterly criticised by director of sport Rino Foschi, who was red carded for dissent at the half-time break.
The Rosanero have implied that the club is being sabotaged so that “bigger sides” – such as Champions League chasers Lazio, Milan and Fiorentina – can catch a top four finish.
