Guest mag.net Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Hopefully Liverpool are involved. I think it could be this game they are referring to in England - http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/europe/7977038.stm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it could be this game they are referring to in England - http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/europe/7977038.stm Could it not be the semi final Chelsea had against Barcelona when they got nothing the whole game and Barca equalised to go through late on?

Karjala Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Most likely the last game of a group stage after qualification had already been sorted out. Aye most likely, it probably won't be as bad as being made out. Still bad mind but the media has a thing about creating drama. Its still match fixing!

What is it with your culture with bribes etc? Firstly, im a fan of Italian football, not actually Italian...born and raised in Northumberland Secondly, id be surprised if it does involve Italian clubs as pretty much every game has been investigated over that time period in the Calcioscommesse scandal, something would have probably come out by now. Im sure Juve are clean this time... Thirdly, its like saying what is it with English culture and violence, or Eastern European culture and racism...Its a problem that needs to be overcome but no Country in football is without sin like. Italy just seems to have a niche with this particular area. Look at Berlusconi to get an idea of the direction of football/politics... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 If the biggest bribe paid out was £122 000, I think it's safe to assume that no player in any of the English teams were in on it, as it would be beyond daft as fuck to risk anything like this for a weeks wages.

I wouldn't be so sure, a bribe would lead to a bribe would lead to another bribe etc etc, nice little earner (and loads aren't on £122K/week, even those that are £122K tax free in a holdall would be nice) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been to hundreds of games and the only time I've seen serious violence and been scared was in Milan. Nothing happened in England in my lifetime like I saw even on that one night in Milan, which didn't even seem to be considered a remarkable incident. (I'm not talking about Newcastle - Inter btw, Scotland playing Italy at the San Siro). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Worth mentioning there is a big doping trial in Spain of a former Barcelona employee. Hopefully that one will blow up first butunlikely as the defendant says he won't talk about certain sports because of death threats. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
