God i hope Matri, Quags, and De Celia get the boot.


Pepe and Bonucci are implicated from a Bari-Udinese fixture in 2009/10.

Pepe allegedly was offered and refused but didn't report.

Bonucci has denied everything publicly but is one of a lot of Bari players implicated in fixing that game or failing to report knowledge of others doing so.

This could be much more far reaching than the previous scandal; most people think it's ultimately tied to gambling syndicates outside Italy and involves other leagues.



. . . it's beginning to hit the fan:

Stefano Mauri, Lazio captain, among 18 players arrested today.

Domenico Criscito's belongings were searched at the Azzurri training grounds this morning and he's been removed from the national team but not arrested. Criscito is NT's first team LB and plays at Zenit though the investigation centers on a dinner he and Guiseppe Sculli had with supposed Bulgarian mobsters while at Genoa. Sculli is among the 18 arrested.

Leonardo Bonucci (Juve) is also supposedly under investigation.


Juve Manager, Antonio Conte's house was searched at dawn this morning. He has not been arrested so far.


The money trail that's led investigators to this point allegedly begins with gambling syndicates in Singapore and winds through organized crime in Bulgaria before being traced into Italy, Switzerland, Croatia, Slovenia, Macedonia, Finland and Germany so far.
