Toon No9 Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 If he's about to sell Roma for $872M, he at least have the money to buy Newcastle for £350M (or even more) and still have money left to take the club forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 That Roma owner is a proper shitcunt isn't he? Totti left the club over how poor they are or something. Will fit in well at our place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odear Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 The former Roma captain Francesco Totti left his position within the club’s management on Monday in a move that will increase fan opposition to the team’s American owner, James Pallotta. While he has been a technical director since retiring from playing two years ago, Totti said he was left out of decisions about the hiring and firing of coaches and moves in the player transfer market. “I never had the chance to express myself. They never involved me,” Totti said in a news conference at the Italian Olympic Committee. “The first year that can happen but by the second [year] I understood what they wanted to do … They knew of my desire to offer a lot to this squad but they never wanted it. They kept me out of everything. It’s a day that I hoped never would have come.” “For eight years here, since the Americans came, they’ve done everything they could to sweep us aside,” Totti said. Pallotta runs the club from Boston and has not been to Rome in more than a year, and Totti said that was problematic. “When the boss isn’t around everyone does whatever they feel like,” Totti said. “That’s the case anywhere.” Eh no thanks.

Collage Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Out of the frying pan and into the frying pan. I have a very, very hard time seeing anybody being as bad as Ashley, and I don’t think I care at this point. I’d settle for a new guy to hate.

Rafalove Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Just had a scan through some Roma forums. They seem critical of him though, not disdainful in the way we are with Ashley. They are unhappy at the stadium not being built, though as far as I can tell Italian beauracracy and red tape have been blamed at least partially. When linked with us the only comment was he can modernise the club Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
