Little article for you double jj...

<cite class="source"></cite> ROME -- The Italian soccer federation will place 22 clubs and 61 people under investigation in the latest match-fixing and betting probe to mar the sport.

Without naming the clubs or people, the Federazione Italiana Giuoco Calcio announced Tuesday that the clubs and people will be informed Wednesday that they have to answer to sports authorities.

The FIGC also says 33 matches are under investigation, including 29 in Serie B, although none in Serie A.
More than 30 people have been arrested in Italy in the past year in the probe started by judicial authorities in Cremona, including former Atalanta captain Cristiano Doni and former Lazio captain Giuseppe Signori.

Supposedly it was on a 'will a penalty be awarded' prop. How poorly are they paying these Irish players?

only interesting thing is there is a casino in malaga, i think it's marbella, that gives out suckers. shows you what they think of players

Is JJ native English speaker? I have problems in understanding his posts, maybe this is the case just because I am not so good in English, but I must ask anyway.

JJ is an SBR celebrity, he expects everyone to know what he is on about when what he says does not make sense. He is American. He is too cool to answer this for you himself.
