Calciopoli: Inter accused of involvement

"Since there is no draw, I am sending you Gabriele with two very good linesmen...". This is the former referee designator Paolo Bergamo calling Inter president Massimo Moratti. The call was made on the 10th of January 2005 at 12:23, before the Italian League Cup match that Inter won 3-1 over Bologna.

This new evidence has been provided by Luciano Moggi’s lawyers who went through the thousands of transcribed recordings that might shed new light at the Calciopoli trial in Naples.

There has been another twist in the Calciopoli trial after new allegations regarding missing evidence came to light in the Tribunal of Naples, according to La Stampa.

It centres around alleged phone calls between former referee designator Paolo Bergamo, his secretary and Inter.

The court was told how Bergamo and his secretary spoke about a telephone call involving Inter president Massimo Moratti over a dinner he had organised in March 2005 to talk about refereeing problems he had become concerned with.

There was also an alleged phone call between Moratti and Bergamo.

But, when Luciano Moggi's defence team questioned Carabinieri chief investigator Colonel Auricchio, who was tasked with leading the 2006 investigation, he couldn't give an answer as to where evidence regarding these alleged phone calls had ended up.

The court heard that, despite the investigation, there was no trace of the evidence in relation to calls between Moratti, Bergamo and his secretary, and that it had gone missing suspiciously.

Suspicions as to the whereabouts of the evidence have been raised by Moggi's lawyers, who were keen to get an answer as to why the tapes could not be found.

The trial continues.

Many will remember Juventus had two Scudetti revoked in 2006 when the scandal came to light. Moggi also received a ban from the game which ends in the summer of 2011.

Bergamo: «He (Bertini) comes disposed to make a good match».
Facchetti: «Yeah, Yeah, all right».
Bergamo: «It's a challenge you'll see we'll win it together».
Facchetti: «I just wanted to tell you that i did it»

Paolo Bergamo (refs' chief) calls Massimo Moratti (inter's owner)

Bergamo: "President Moratti it's Bergamo here.."
Moratti: "I'd wanted to call you to tell you that i've seen this lad (the ref, Bertini) that really had a great match that really could end up in a big mess."
Bergamo: "Yes inter-sampdoria was the most difficult. Also the linesmen did a good job."
Moratti: "I told 'em after the match, "look, you were great", 'cause it was just twice... good to pick those, "how the f**k do you pick those"... they winked at me..."
Bergamo: "and now let's make a 10 positive matches in a row, ok?"
Moratti: "i wanted to call you yesterday after i went to see the lad (Bertini) that did great, but then i thinked it's sunday, and sunday you get calls of who's happy and whd's not ..."

PS.
INTER-SAMPDORIA JANUARY 9, 2005. FINAL RESULT 3-2. INTER DOWN 0-2 UNTIL 88TH MINUTE. 2 GOALS IN THE 5 MINUTES STOPPAGE TIME.

January 10, 2005. before inter's Coppa Italia (league cup) match against bologna.

Bergamo: "I spoke to Facchetti (inter president) to clench this friendliness that it's a thing you and i know, but the group (?) really appreciated the work we've done with Gabriele and palanca (both refs coming from a 6 months disciplinary suspension), and so i was thinking about getting them back in Coppa italia, one to Inter and one to AC Milan.
Moratti: "All right.."
Bergamo: "We wanted to give them a good chance..."
Moratti: "yeah, yeah..."
Bergamo: "Facchetti told me he agrees.."
Moratti: "all right. wednesday i'll go see him before the match"
Bergamo: "that will really delight him"
Moratti: "i'll go greet him"
Bergamo: "since that in Coppa Italia there's no ref's draw, i decided to send you Gabriele (the ref), matching him with two really good linesmen."
Moratti: "no, no, Gabriele has always been a good ref, really constant, i never had to complain..."
Bergamo: "a greeting, you'll see, will fullfill him with joy."
Moratti: "thank you. wednesday i'm there if it's needed, i go see him before the match

Before serie A's referees draw. (linesmen were directly appointed and not by a draw, unlike refs)

Facchetti (inter president) calls Mazzei (linesmen chief).

Mazzei: «i'm driving to Coverciano (draw's venue)».
Facchetti: «choose them well for sunday night…».
Mazzei: «number one and number two. as i think Ivaldi and Pisacreta».
Facchetti: «Ivaldi and Pisacreta?».
Mazzei: «yes they're number one and two».
Facchetti: «all right, and referees' number one ...».
Mazzei: «yes, let's hope we're lucky with that fuc..g draw. let's hope we get number one».
Facchetti: «No, there they must not make the draw, they owe us...».
Mazzei: «how can you do that Giacinto? unfortunately you need luck».
Facchetti: «c'mon ...».
Mazzei: «i'll tell you. the draw is made by a journalist. they have to study a grid (of some refs to be drawn) and then odds grow».

the linesmen later chosen for the nov 28, sunday night match Inter-Juventus by their chief, were actually Ivaldi and Pisacreta.
drawn ref was Rodomonti.

Week 33. The week that was

Inter had been top of the table for 25 consecutive rounds. Roma last enjoyed the solo leadership on September 23 2004, but hadn’t been up there with five games to go since the 2000-01 season when they took the Scudetto.

The Giallorossi are now unbeaten in 23 rounds, of which 17 were victories.

Inter have picked up just two points from the last four away games.

Keirrison nets his second Italian goal after the one against Lazio on February 27. It is Samuel Eto’o’s 11th and Diego Milito’s 43rd.

Juventus keep a clean sheet after conceding 34 goals in 19 rounds. Giorgio Chiellini has netted 14 Serie A goals, eight of them headers. Gianluigi Buffon marks his 400th Serie A appearance.

Milan have drawn three of their last five games. Marco Borriello bags his third brace of the campaign for a total of 44 top flight career goals. Maxi Lopez scores his third goal in the last two games for a total of seven in Italian football.

Sampdoria had lost the last three editions of the Derby Della Lanterna and hadn’t even scored for 259 minutes in ‘home’ ties with Genoa.

Palermo haven’t lost at the Stadio Barbera since the 4-0 derby defeat to Catania on March 1 2009, followed by 19 wins and six draws.

Chievo are without a victory since their 2-1 over Cagliari on February 28, amassing three points from seven rounds. The Flying Donkeys hadn’t scored on their travels for 333 minutes of football.

For the first time this season, Lazio go unbeaten for five rounds. Andre Dias breaks his Serie A duck, but Tommaso Rocchi takes his tally to 89.

Parma extend their unbeaten run to four wins and as many draws, their best streak of the entire season.

Bologna have picked up just one point from the last six matches. Franco Colomba has lost five of his nine meetings with Lazio, earning only one win.

Livorno’s eighth home defeat of the season equals the club record in the top flight, already set in 2007-08.

Udinese were the only team in Serie A without an away victory this term. Their last triumph was 3-1 at Lazio on May 9 2009, followed by 11 defeats and six draws.

Antonio Di Natale takes his seasonal tally to 23 goals, 96 in his Serie A career.

Atalanta have won only one of their last 13 away games, 2-0 at Siena on November 22, along with two draws and 10 losses.

Siena had never beaten Bari before with seven draws and five defeats up until now. The Tuscans hadn’t scored in 371 minutes of football this season.

Bari suffer a second consecutive defeat and have picked up only one point from the last three rounds.

Week 34
Inter v Juventus (Fri 7.45pm ESPN)
Chievo v Livorno (Sat 5pm.)

Sunday 2pm
Atalanta v Fiorentina
Bari v Napoli
Cagliari v Palermo
Catania v Siena
Parma v Genoa
Sampdoria v Milan (ESPN)
Udinese v Bologna
Lazio v Roma (5.30pm ESPN)

-----------------------------------------

As the race for the Scudetto hot's up so do this fixtures this weekend. Tonight Inter take on Juventus. Inter lost top spot last weekend, but on Tuesday beat Fiorentina to qualify for the Coppa Italia final, most likely against the team that knocked them off top spot Roma (Roma lead Udinese 2-0 from the first leg). Juventus have endured a miserable season. Like Liverpool in the Premier League they were knocked out of the CL early. After changing coach in January the revival never materialised. However, after not keeping a clean sheet in 23 games, Buffon returned last weekend from injury and Juve won 1-0. Inter will be favourites but it's a game Juventus hate to loose.

Sunday see's the race for 4th intensify. Palermo and Sampdoria remain locked together for that spot and Samp host AC Milan. After a week which saw Cagliari sack Allegri for meeting Galliani and Berlusconi in Milan, Leonardo had to be persuaded to stay on until the summer. If that was not bad enough, the club confirmed that star striker Pato will be sold this summer, where Chelsea have agreed to pay €40m plus Branislav Ivanovic, according to Gazzetto, Milan arrive in Genoa with little confidence. Sampdoria with Cassano and Pazzini on top form could keep the pressure on Palermo who travel to Cagliai on the back of the islanders sacking Allegri.

Sunday evening will see the not for the faint hearted Rome derby. Moved from the usual 8.45pm to 6.30pm because of security issues this will be one of the biggest derby's for a long while. Claudio Raneri has worked miracles at Roma, getting the best out of Vucinic and Menez. Roma have won their last 5 games on the bounce, however, since Lazio appointed ex Napoli coach Edy Reja, they have responded well, going 5 games unbeaten and moving 6 points clear of 3rd bottom Atalanta.

Ya they are selling him.

Inter won 2-0. Sissoko was sent off after 37mins and for some reason he brought on Poulsen for Del Piero and left Diego on. Maicon scored an absolute brilliant goal on 76mins and Eto'o scored in the 92nd to put the seal on it. Inter go top and put the pressure on Roma sunday
