Soccer scandal, Roma come out

Roma's name come out in the scandal which is upsetting soccer world.

According to some newspapers, such as "il Giornale", the name of yellow red club come out during investigations about Gea-

At this moment there are no charge or inquired in Roman club, but there are some rumors about a phone call between Paolo Bergamo, one of the referee selecter at the center of the scandal, and Roma's president Franco Sensi about some referee "welcome" by yellow reds president, intercepted in 2002 by Guardia di Finanza of Livorno.

in exchange for this favour, Bergamo would have received some help to stipulateinsurance policies by Ina Assitalia-that was Roma's sponsor-. The former referee (Bergamo) was general agent of Ina Assitalia in Livorno province.

The investigation itself was left but, after last days developments, may come back as an important one and tre public prosecutor who took documents from Livorno prosecutor office was Luca Palamara who is investigating about Moggi.

The points of the inquiry are, as a whole, three

1) the sudden peace between Moggi and Sensi family, "broke out" between the end of 2004 and 2005 last summer after years of quarreling: after this Roma was able to transfer some Gea player after years of unuseful attempts.

2) An Interception by Naple prosecutors of a phone call in which Moggi was speaking about an exchange between a "contract" for Roma and Emerson transfer to Juventus.

3) Last fryday interrogation of Franco Baldini, former red yellow managerand Moggi's enemy, who would have confirmed every previous accusation to GEA and to black-white manager who left Roma after the club entered in the sphere of Luciano and Alessandro Moggi.

This is the phone call between Moggi and Giraudo which arouse prosecutors suspicion:

Giraudo(about Mazzoleni, Roma manager): This one go on breaking b***s, Do they want make matches contract, does'n they? About the number of matches we guarantee. So I said, ok, we will not make the contract if you do not settle Emerson eh? It's necessary you settle Emerson and in this context we will settle the contract(...)
Moggi:"We have to do this in the context, Those people have no face!

As in other cases we are waiting for developments.

thanks for translating that..brilliant job.
