I wonder if theres a Torino fan somewhere in his mums basement, lets call him "Jamesio Forrestio" -- furiously bashing away at a keyboard demanding they, sTrIp ThE TiTLs?
Or is it just us that need to deal with that level of mentalism?

A fitting thread for a classic.

Italian football has a long reputation of outrageous financial deals involving players managers directors mafia / drug cartels ect ect
When Maradona went to Napoli it was rumoured mafia drug money was used to fund it

I don't like the tinfoil hat stuff that sometimes comes into threads on Celtic and their influence on Scottish football (and likewise ours from them) but the Calciopoli stuff was absolutely mental. You can see why people would assume that sort of stuff could happen anywhere. I also think Juventus got off relatively lightly in respect to those indiscretions.
Likely a bit of nothing story from a journalist who supports Juve's biggest rivals (sounds familiar to our journalists). They have been reviewing players swap deals for a few teams in Serie A with the players valuations looked at.
The Arthur/Pjanic swap seems to be the issue but I'm not sure how you can prove any wrongdoing if that's the price two clubs value their players at. In hindsight the prices seem too high because both players flopped.

Napoli also involved in this "creative accounting":

The authorities in Italy are investigating dozens of transfers involving top clubs. In doing so, they might pull back the curtain on accounting practices that defy easy explanation.

Greatest acting everA fitting thread for a classic.
That’s the exact transfer that has sparked this.
Although Italian teams are notorious for selling or swapping players for dodgy sums. It’s surprising the authorities have taken action now.
Soon to be joined by Barco and Madco.

Can we get our 4-0 pumpings overturned in favour of 3-0 wins for the bears? Contact Laudrup, Gough, Ally etc and get the old band back together. We still have a shot at the 95/96 CL

Money Laundering FC at the Piggery have got away with a lot more. Durty Dermot uses that dump as a washing machine for his dodgy dealings.

Dybala would be a decent free transfer if we sold Aribo and he settled in alright.
