The Italian Fiasco July 14, 2006

The Italian fiasco – found out, exposed – concerning match-fixing (it could never happen here) has relegated three of the major clubs, including Juventus, from the top tier. For me this is good fun – I can visit Italy and photograph them and their egos and their great international troupe of fans crammed into tiny stadiums in unfamiliar Italian haunts. Even if all the star players have been sold to England!
