Why are Italian chairmen so crazy with their sackings? It's like they don't give their managers any time :lol

The problem is they are just generally Crazy. Nothing beats Gigi Becali, chairman of Steua Bucaresti though


Becali has received an award for being the most homophobic person in Romania, has called a black television presenter 'an ape' and has admitted that he is 'not a civilised man'.
...
A right-wing Christian, he has said he will create special neighbourhoods where homosexuals can live so that they do not disturb the rest of the population. He has a strong xenophobic streak and seems to hate Hungarians, having recently said that the top-flight team Cluj should not be allowed to play in the Romanian league because they have an owner with Hungarian background.

"I will play only religious songs before the matches, because I'm the one who pays and this is the way I like it. I will take out the song We Will Rock You. Why play that song? So the players kill each other? Whoever wants to hear devil's music should not come to my stadium" - Steaua Bucharest owner Gigi Becali outlines his playlist reforms at the Stadion Ghencea.

Romania: Steaua owner Gigi Becali says League president Dumitru Dragomir "must be beaten" for "humiliating" Steaua during talks over a new TV deal, and for "corrupting football".

Romania: Steaua owner Gigi Becali, asked on live TV how he feels about Rapid Bucharest president Dinu Gheorghe making public reference to Becali's first job as a shepherd. "What? He is a filthy jerk. A fat bum. I'll force this Gypsy back up his mother. I'm tired of him, all his irony and jokes. He forces me to lose control! He's way out of line."
(Gheorghe: "You have to wonder. He's not good with jokes, is he?")

Romania: Steaua owner Gigi Becali says holding a press conference last week to "clear the air" and say sorry to "everyone I offended this year" made him feel better. Making it on to Gigi's list:
• Rapid Bucharest owner George Copos: "I'm sorry for what I called him. He never answers back. I don't judge him. Yes, he's cheap, but let God judge everyone, I don't have to do it."
• Sexual minorities: "I apologise to them. It's their problem, their disease, not mine. You ask me if I still think it's a sin? Of course it's a sin. I always speak my mind."
• Other religions: "I'm sorry to all of the religions, the cults. But I do have my views. Jehovah's Witnesses are on the way to perdition."
• Plus Steaua's fans: "I'm sorry for offending them. Apart from the ones who called for me to die just before Easter. They are possessed by Satan."
Gigi's conclusion: "That feels better, I feel reborn. And it'll make Satan crazy: he hates it when a soul gets cleaner. But I didn't just do this for me. I'm an inspiration to millions."

"With Gigi there, what a fairytale this will be."

Romania: Steaua owner Gigi Becali's new ambition: "I want to be prime minister, so I can be Christ's general on earth. This country needs 5,000 Becalis – but even with 100 we'd be better than Germany or France. Becali is love – love draws me to people in need. All that I do, I do for Jesus."

Keeping a low profile over the summer: Steaua owner Gigi Becali – settling for a general warning to Romanians to stay away from Lady Gaga's tour. "She's a disciple of Satan.

Romania: Steaua owner Gigi Becali, denying racist leanings: "Nobody's nicer to gypsies than me. And I have nothing against blacks – sorry, 'African-Americans'. I just don't sign blacks because they're not suitable. They don't play well in our weather."

Quite an offensive team now that I look at it.

Seems more like a 4-1-2-3

Van Gaal doesn't really like old players. Big chance he will never play again (or at least not in the XI).

No scouting department confirmed OR something much much worse. You go rich and successful clubs on FM aka easy mode aka painting by numbers.

I now have you marked down as a terrible man.

See this is the kind of banter I want in the premier league, can already imagine Wenger and Froggie saying crap like :

"Total coward. He hides behind a microphone. Let's solve this like men, in a ring, with fists and feet, no rules. The ratings would be immense. I would take Becali. We'd see what a man he is."• Becali, live on GSP TV: "You want in the ring, let's get in the ring, bitch. I'll break your arms and legs. Let's take guns too. Let us shoot with guns."

To each other. How awesome would that be?

I also want Roman to state this to Rafa in the press

. "You really think he doesn't know what will happen to him, if we fail? God help him. Jihad will begin."

Spurs did agree deal for Damiao on 31 Jan. Collapsed at 4/5pm as Internacional suddenly said he could only go in summer

No talks until Inter decided late Jan to sell. Deal quickly agreed, only for Inter to change terms last minute. #Thfc thought it was done.

It's amazing this isn't a bigger story. Number of doctors have already more or less admitted they've worked with Spanish internationals and players at Barca/Madrid but nobody seems to care.

Was also amazed to learn that doping isn't (or wasn't until recently) strictly illegal in Spain.

One of the doctors central to the current case in Spain was approached by Barcelona twice.

Doping was always illegal in Spain, the problem here is the lack of the most basic ethical principles.

In Spain, when a runner or cyclist is discovered in doping rule violation, the authorities give him support instead to go against him. That´s how Spain works. That´s how Spain wins.

Madrid,Barca and valencia have been always under doping suspicion, the same for Nadal or Alberto Contador. I could give you hundreds of examples. Spain is a paradise for doping.

Btw, Manzano spoke in 2003 about this doping plot. Nobody cared and he was violently criticized and treated like a pariah by the Spanish media. Don´t get your hopes up, nobody will betray the big names, nobody will say nothing, that´s how the mafia works.

Sounds about right for them, they are horrible to deal with.

Then again, so are we. Happy we haven't got him anyway, Ade is going to return on a mission to score 10 for the rest of the season.
