CHOULO19 24,332 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 What a shame if correct.... How did it go from Buffon, Crespo, Thuram, Canavaro...etc. in the late 1990s to this in just 15 years?! EDIT: Veron and Di Vaio as well! Damn, what a team!

Fulham Broadway 17,312 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 We know clubs are businesses now, and as such will disolve if not profitable, such is the nature of capitalism, but the Italian FA, uefa and FIFA are complicit in this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 You missed a certain Mr Zola off that list, my friend.Gianfranco was with them earlier.

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Oh.... My bad. I thought you were just listing players from their past whoops!They had a really incredible team between 98 and '00. Btw, this isn't official yet. There is still some slim hope, by my understanding. But their game today is postponed because they can't pay for stewards and security! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
We Hate Scouse 10,326 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 They had a really incredible team between 98 and '00. Btw, this isn't official yet. There is still some slim hope, by my understanding. But their game today is postponed because they can't pay for stewards and security! From what I understand there were some last minute attempts from fans to save the club, but they're €197 million in debt. They're not going to get saved. They're gone.

They're not going to get saved. They're gone.The president was attempting to make something last minute, but if he really could do something he would have done so some time ago.They certainly look gone, but you never know, though.

They've got a court hearing around March 9th I read, which is where it could become official. But it's unlikely they'll get any of their games on before that so.

Even if they could play, I'm not sure the players are mentally prepared to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
