Former FIGC head Franco Carraro spoke on the Calciopoli scandal that rocked Italian football back in 2006 and in particular Guido Rossi, who succeeded him and the awarding of the scudetto to Inter.
“I think it was an error to assign the 2006 Scudetto to Inter,” he told La Repubblica today. “It was a very heavy choice, because a month afterwards Rossi went to be Telecom Italia President for the second time, whose major shareholder was Marco Tronchetti Provera, the Inter vice-President.”
Carraro, who was FIGC President at the time of the scandal and was forced to resign as a result insisted that despite what happened, “Guido Rossi deserves a great deal of credit, and he handled Calciopoli well.”
“It was quick and timely, it allowed the league to start on time and the Italian sides to enter the European cups,” he concluded.
The Calciopoli scandal saw Juventus relegated to Serie B and stripped of the 2005 and 2006 scudetti and Milan, Lazio and Fiorentina face sanctions for the roles they played in it also.

thankss i thought a virus has hit my pc:(!
i miss the old simple sempreinter web site, hope current web admin will realize that the ads are sooo annoying
Not understand why the news of Inter getting 2006 scudetto is louder than the calciopoli it self??
We are not even hope to get that crown though.
Even if we didn’t get it by 2006, the glorious year of 2010 will always be a dildo made of steel in every rubentino’s a$$
This fuckhead is avid moggi supporter
No matter what narrative the media tries to run. That scandal will forever be a stain on Juventus and it will eat up these mafiosos forever.
I also would have preferred if that Scudetto was not awarded to anyone and was instead left to serve as a grim reminder in history about what the Rube mafia did to Italian football. Because they all seem to have conveniently forgotten already.
