dune Posted 16 May, 2011 Share Posted 16 May, 2011 Nicola Cortese, Southampton's chairman, was recently approached by a representative for Berlusconi informing him of that gilded club's interest in taking him on. It is strongly possible that the contact was made on the recommendation of Giancarlo Giorgetti, an influential member of Berlusconi's Northern League party who just so happens to be a massive Saints fan. Just don't ask Digger why that is. But Cortese is understood to have declined the approach, favouring his current employment where he enjoys an adamantine relationship with the club's billionaire owner, Marcus Liebherr. http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/2010/jan/27/notts-county-hmrc-debt Thoughts?

If he draws a jail term this could be a pretty big deal for europe in general and france in particular. Another blow for the euro, methinks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bridge too far Posted 18 May, 2011 Share Posted 18 May, 2011 He should ask to be tried and sentenced over here - chances are he'd only serve 15 months if Ken Clarke's proposals go through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
