The following article is icing on the cake and simply confirms that Vieri is a dog. He should be removed from the La Grande Inter thread.
Moratti attacks Italian media
Wednesday 4 October, 2006
Massimo Moratti says he was satisfied after his meeting with Francesco Saverio Borrelli on Tuesday, but insists that Inter are victims of a media conspiracy.
The Nerazzurri owner was heard by the Italian Football Federation chief investigator in connection with the Telecom scandal and the accusations of former referee Massimo De Santis, who Inter allegedly ordered to tail and spy on in 2002.
"I don't really think I should comment on what we told each other, out of respect for Borrelli and his staff,” said Moratti.
“Everyone was very attentive and nice with me. I think we clarified all the important issues and I hope there will be no need for me to return for another hearing,” added the oil tycoon.
The Nerazzurri chief is convinced that those who have paid for the Calciopoli scandal are now trying to drag his club’s name through the mud and is unhappy with the media’s reporting.
“I have seen and heard so many things in the past few days,” he added. “This is unbelievable, but I will leave all the work to Borrelli.
“We have paid a very high price over the years from a sporting point of view and now we have become the target of a media system, which is managed by the same groups of power.
“I can only hope this will pass.”
Meanwhile, former Inter striker Christian Vieri – whose name was also included in the list of hundreds of phone interceptions by Telecom Italia – has confirmed that he is considering the idea of suing Moratti and his club.
“I am very disappointed,” Vieri is quoted as saying. “I gave the club five years of my life to only discover that they were spying on me.”
The FIGC will also investigate the Vieri issue in a bid to understand if there are the sufficient grounds for legal action.
