Dan nog een nieuw iets: Vandaag in de media verhalen over de begrotingen van Lazio en Roma. Hiermee zou van alles mis zijn, er zouden te hoge/fictieve bedragen/saldi opgevoerd worden waardoor het lijkt alsof de clubs er financieel beter (minder slecht) voor zouden staan dan in werkelijkheid het geval zou zijn. Kortom, ook hier dreigen weer sancties van puntenaftrek tot degradatie als dit allemaal inderdaad zo blijkt te zijn en nog maar eens gezegd: Het spel rond de financieen en de begrotingen moet nog beginnen.

Italy turn to foreign refs

Serie A matches could be officiated by foreign referees next season in an attempt to restore credibility to the Italian game.

The nation’s refereeing system is set for a drastic overhaul over the summer as a result of the scandal which has brought calcio to its knees.

With nine referees currently under investigation as part of the probe looking into the alleged manipulation of the sport, Italy could be left short of adequate officials next season.

With that in mind, new Italian Football Federation commissioner Guido Rossi is seriously considering looking on the continent for assistance.

It’s believed that Rossi is pondering the idea of appointing former top class official Pierluigi Collina (pictured) as the new head of the Italian Referees’ Association.

He will replace Tulio Lanese who quit as President of the AIA earlier this month after the scandal broke.

Collina would then look to create a system in which he could call upon the services of men like Germany’s Markus Merk and Graham Poll of England to take charge of some top-flight matches.

Italian football have turned to foreign whistle blowers in the past. In the 1955-56 season, a group of Austrian refs were hired in the business end of the season to guarantee fairness.

Collina wist van schandaal Italië
28 mei 2006, 20:30
Door: Klaas Jan van der Veen
Pierluigi Collina is in Italië in opspraak gekomen. De voormalig scheidsrechter zou op de hoogte zijn van de praktijken van Luciano Moggi, inmiddels opgestapt bij Juventus. Dit wist Gazzetta dello Sport te melden.
De Italiaanse sportkrant neemt de zaak serieus op. “Collina wist alles”, zo kopt het medium. Collina zou op de hoogte zijn gebracht door AC Milan. De Milanese club hoopte Moggi, inmiddels opgestapt bij Juventus, daarmee weg te kunnen counteren. Collina zou aanvankelijk weinig heil zien in de zaak, na enige tijd zou hij echter toch hebben toegestemd.

Collina was jarenlang één van de beste scheidsrechters van de wereld. De kale scheidsrechter moest echter stoppen vanwege een sponsorcontract.

Rossoneri see media conspiracy

Milan have released a statement accusing the Press of organising a conspiracy to drag them into the Calciopoli scandal with Juventus.

“AC Milan rebel against the organised media’s campaign against us,” read the release on their official website.


“There are entirely arbitrary theories of a ‘Milan system’ by misinterpreting snippets of phone conversations, bending the wise words of FIGC Commissioner Guido Rossi and trying to turn a cordial meeting between Adriano Galliani and Rossi into an interrogation.”


Juventus have until now been at the centre of the Calciopoli scandal and risk anything from docked points to demotion into Serie B.


However, the new tactic used by Luciano Moggi’s legal team is to claim that the former Juve director general was only trying to “defend himself against the real power centres of football” – namely Milan.


The Turin-based newspapers have printed several stories supporting this theory over the past few days, including allegations that a linesman was a Rossoneri supporter and today ‘Tuttosport’ claimed that the club gifted watches to referees.


“The final aim of this campaign of misinformation is manifest: they intend to transfer the investigation and its verdicts elsewhere, struggling to generate a concert of malicious suggestions to those who must analyse and decide,” continued Milan’s statement.


“Nobody from these newspapers has tried to transcribe, nor even probably to read, the original information provided by the Lazio police in their investigations so far.”


This is the statement printed by magazine ‘L’Espresso’ and the Milan website, provided by the Lazio-based Carabinieri police on January 21, 2006, as part of their investigations:


“The evidence acquired thus far reinforce the investigative theory that Luciano Moggi has absolute power over the entire football system. It’s an even more alarming situation due to the exclusivity of this power, next to which there is no counter-balance able to contrast it.”


The temperature in Calciopoli is rising sharply with less than three weeks to go before the investigation is set to conclude and the first verdicts delivered.


Galliani, who is Vice-President of Milan and President of the Lega Calcio, is set to meet with Federation Commissioner Rossi on Monday morning to discuss how they’ll move forward in revamping the football system.


There are also reports this will sanction Galliani’s resignation from the Lega, something which has been repeatedly requested by Vice-President Maurizio Zamparini, who has already handed in his own notice.


Despite the increasingly bitter row between the two clubs, Galliani confirmed yesterday that the Trofeo Berlusconi would again be a Milan-Juventus match in August. The tournament began in 1991 and is set for its 16th edition, almost all of them with these two sides.

Samp and judges enter Calciopoli

The Calciopoli scandal continues to grow, as Sampdoria and the judges in charge of the appeals courts are the latest figures under investigation.

The wide-reaching inquest into Italian football affairs, taking in allegations of match-fixing, collusion with referees and unfair agency practices, has already involved some of the biggest clubs, such as Juventus, Milan, Fiorentina and Lazio.

Sampdoria have now joined that list after President Riccardo Garrone confirmed he was under investigation by the Naples public prosecutors for the 3-0 win over Fiorentina. “I am astonished and have nothing to do with this,” insisted the patron.

The biggest surprise of the day, however, saw the President of the CAF – Federal Court of Appeal – and the chief of the Disciplinary Commission also grilled by the magistrates.

CAF President Cesare Martellino is accused of favouring Juventus in the ruling over their registration of young players Zeytulaev and Boudianski in December 2004. The starlets had left the Bianconeri, as their five-year contracts signed in 2001 were considered invalid because they were below the legal age at the time, so deals could only have a maximum of three-year status.

“I am amazed by my colleagues in Naples,” slammed Martellino. “It takes some nerve to talk of a fixed sentence. They’ve created a crazy story. They were two kids and we simply stated that the Italian laws had the prerogative over the UEFA rules. Even a three-year-old child could understand that.”

The President of the Disciplinary Commission, Maurizio Laudi, has also been placed under investigation, according to the ‘Corriere della Sera’ newspaper. It’s alleged that telephone conversations suggest rulings were agreed in advance with FIGC secretary Francesco Ghirelli and that there were references to former Juve director general Luciano Moggi.
