4 minutes of extratime today in Atalanta game

In the Juve game so much bias against Roma even tho I rooted for Juve

i've had it with up to here with this bias

and its time it start

Galliani shoudl be jailed for corruption.
Roma-Juve was certainly Serie A at it's worst. Numerous unjust key decisions (and in favour of Juve of course), about billion fouls, no tempo in the game whatsoever, players whining in front of the ref like little babies.
I'm sorrry for being so blunt I'm just so pissed. I been following this league for a long time and I try to ignore it. I always talk about Juve's favoritism, but today I saw Juve for the first time in a long long time and I saw how bad it really was. I also see how Milan get away with FKs at the last second and always seem to have 4-6 min of extratime while other teams have 2-4 at most. I just don't know what to say. This is getting out of hand and Italians seem to think that there's nothing uncommonplace about this. It needs to be fixed, and now. It starts at the top. Get rid of Galliani at FIGC head. He needs to be replaced. I will recommend Facchetti or the Sampdoria President. Also, Baldini might do good at the top.

Galliani is President of Lega Calcio NOT the FIGC. Just want to point you in the right direction.
Thanks for the information. Ohh well I don't care what he's head of, but I just want him gone b/c Moratti even thinks that its unfair influences from Milan that decide the champinoship.
Moratti thinks Galliani fixes things so that Juve win scudettos? :confused: Actually, it's Moggi who handles the fixing. Moratti helps by making sure Inter are never in the running for a scudetto.

And the president of FIGC is Carraro, an idiot who promised to step down but won't.
To be honest a Milan vice president should never ever be chairman of a league. I mean how silly in theory does that sound? but its reality which is stupid.

Juve fix matches and dope their players up which is also very unfair.

So Serie A is definitely BS in many ways.
This season, Milan has been heavily penalised with refs. You just need to run threw all the matches to know it as a fact.
I am not saying Milan cheat or anything as such. My point is clearly that a vice chairman of a club in theory should not be the leagues president.

How would you feel if Roma or Inter's vice chairman became the leagues president? Would it be fair?

We both know so well why he was elected back then by ALL CHAIRMEN of Serie A. If the effect of him being LEGA Chairman is the refereeing that we've had to put up with this season, I hope he quits.

I hope he quits anyway, I just hope that whoever pick up the position is not a fool.
What do you mean the refereeing you've had? A few bad decisions you are not use to and all of a sudden you get unfair refereeing decisions.

Try being a Roma fan if you feel like that :rolleyes:
Whatever....we got a bigger problem at hand......like ther eis bad quality...
but the main problem

WHAT IS BEING DONE ABOUT IT?

Like the NBA had a fight in the stands...they needed action and they made new rules and fined /suspended.

The MLB had steroids controversy and they fixed it with toughter laws.

THE SERIE A has Ref and corruption problems. Is it true? No maybe yes. But the quality of games and referering is so bad that there is a problem.

WE NEED TO FIX IT. Yet nothing is done at the top.
To outsiders like me, it seems that the Serie A top guns actually promote this controversy and bad quality to help drive the league in propaganda and to give talk shows to give something to talk about. I watch the La7 show nowadays and I notice that Italians in general take this bad quality as a characteristic of a league and something they appreciate as part of the game. in reality it is not part of the game and it shoudl be looked upon as something that needs to be fixed.

Italians=Compalin during games and then go back to work during the week and talk about the controversy with actual enjoyment, and then enxt week complain again about controversy in the games....

Not even the EPL has this kind of controversy
liga...never

If you wish I can give you a detailed list, starting from day 1 Livorno vs Milan (red card on Dida 8th minute 1st half), only GK so far awarded a red for a similar foul. :eek:

Owned by Inter, it's considered the most biased talkshow in Italy. Ask any Italian.
Ok name every bad decision (which made the result) you've had and see how many you can name....
The Italian rules and systems is what sucks! The football when played is great but I think it is totally unfair what happens in maches at times to the smaller teams.
Yes I agree kind of like how Samp got fuked in our game when they should have had a penalty against Inter

Milan vs Livorno, Juve vs Milan, Milan vs Bologna (disallowed goal Dhorasoo), Livorno vs Milan (2 penalties on Sheva 1 on Ambro), in these games we lost points, in other games we won, but still we had unfavourable ref decisions that might have cost us points, it means nothing that you eventually win, what matters is that in that particular moment you are not winning and you've had a bad call. These games are Parma vs Milan (disallowed goal on Crespo), Chievo vs Milan (dissallowed goal on Kaka). In Lazio vs Milan 2 harsh yellows on Pancaro (if you look at Roma vs Juve tonight how many yellows should have been awarded?), Bologna vs Milan (no penalty awarded on Pancaro), all in all we've received 5 reds (a hell of a lot for being the team that fouls the least in Serie A), now we've been favoured today vs Atalanta and vs Samp ( for a goal scored in offside position that was hard to see, matter of fact Samp players realized only after the match). Now as our competitors this season on the contrarary have been rather lucky with refs, with only 1 red card ( and the are the team that fouls the most in Serie A by far), you can see that it's a miracle that we are still in the race for the title. Another team that according to most media (but LA7) has been lucky with refs this season so far is Inter.
