Gianfranco, Avia, that’s exactly what I hate. We got entirely blamed by Calciopoli, but before you guys forget, Milan was fingered too. Gallani was supposed to get the same ban as Moggi. What happened instead? Slap on the wrist, a huge reprieve.

At least you guys didn’t go from relegation to nothing though.

Juve did very well this season, coming from the Serie B.. I dunno why you’re still holding this against us..

So just get over it..

Ok…I’m sad now even though I knew it probably wasn’t going to happen…it was nice to dream for a little bit wasn’t it?

alessio dont even try to compare moggi and galliani’s roles in calciopoli.

galliani certainly didnt lock a ref in the lockerroom after a game.

please, theres no comparison.

Regardless of what they did, I’m not saying they were the same, but the original punishment was the same, Milan ended up getting off scot-free and Milanistas think their club did nothing wrong at all.

A friendly reminder from a team that did not have a PM as president.

yeah Avia i remember those times. being in england and wearing the milan shirt, i got some curious looks down the road. when we beat liverpool the comments were match fixers and criminals, (there were worse but those aren’t worth repeating).

if we did gain champ league entry, the competition would be a bigger joke then it is now.

Ursus wrote, “Article 1.01 expressly says that no national federation may enter more than four clubs.”

Wasn’t this article thrown out the door when Liverpool were allow to enter as a 5th placed team?

Some not so good news.

-Adebayor says yes to Milan. Milan are offering 40 million.
no no no, 1-we dont need him, 2- eto’o or drogba. 3-40 mil!!! hopefully its only rumors.

-Maldini is now evaluating Galliani’s offer on whether to stay or leave.
not much information so far, but again im not gonna get ahead of myself.

-Amelia about to sign with Palermo.

40m is too much!

moka | June 4th, 2008 at 7:52 pm

For 40m we should be able to get Benzema or Gomez!

Btw Fet, who you going for in the Euros?

Me and some friends are gonna watch the Italy games in Little Italy in DT..

Moka, Benzema and Gomes are not as good as Adebayor, do you realize Adebayor may very well be the next Weah!! He is young strong, fast, and the perfect point man for the Carletto XMAS tree. For months many of you have complained about Drogba being to old and now we have the younger version and you are still complaining…this should be great news!

So DeRossi is stirring the pot with Pirlo in the Azzuri camp, I already didnt like him, this doesnt help matters…

Avia | June 5th, 2008 at 3:01 am

Hmm, i dont know Gian, for the 40 mil i’d rather get Benzema, he fits the “battering ram” type of striker that we need.

Ade is good but has his spurts, watch Benzema through the Euros (especially against the Italian defences).

It would be great to land either AND to get Shev back on the bench also.

More worried about the lack of news regarding defenders and midfielders.

DeRossi and Pirlo are said to be good friends in reality, just the press passing time.

Avia | June 5th, 2008 at 3:18 am

In fact, cant we spend the 40 mill to shore up our defence instead??

Not that long ago Galliani was crying to the press about the price of Drogba, Eto et al and now he’s pulling 4O mill out of his back pocket!!!!!!!!!!!!

A, just to answer your question above the language about four teams was expressly ADDED after the Liverpool debacle.
