The decisions have been made. Got to admit, I'm quite surprised, I thought some of the clubs might have got away with it. Looks like they've taken stronger action than many anticipated.

What is this thread about? Is this about Italy winning the World Cup? People now are saying they fixed the world cup match? Sorry I don't understand blink.gif

Nay. It's about the Italian league. Three clubs have now forcibly relegated to the second league for trying to manipulate games by paying money to get specific referees for the games of their teams.

Good to see those teams get punished for their crimes. Now if they could somehow link that to the world cup...

HA-HA !I double that tongue.gif that's exactly why I loathe Italians and their football lately - nothing but scheeming, double-dealing and fixing... too bad the Smackety Hand of Justice wasn't even heavier on'em...
