    Braindead take aside. Why the fuck would an investigation on bets placed before he played for us be held against Newcastle fans? Not a braincell evident on this sub whenever anything remotely resembling us is mentioned.

    I can only presume you’re trolling or downright ignorant here. Applying pressure to allow the sale to go through which was in turn also being blocked because of pressure from other governments opposed to it is very different to applying different standards when it comes to sporting matters and/or investigations into individuals of which concerns before they were a player for the club in question. That is the very essence of being conspiratorial and proving my point.

    Fabrizio Corona on r/soccer: the weirdest timeline ever

    The guy is basically an evil Fabrizio Romano, a blackmailer who went on jail many times. But he still has some connections, he was the first to report Fagioli’s gambling problems

    I usually ask myself why this players involved themselves in betting when they literally collect salary that can feed the next generation

    There’s no checklist just a reality and conspiracies cooked up in your head. There domestic issues and actions are also night and day different to handling their investments on the other side of the world. If you genuinely think the PIF intervene in every day to day issue of every single one of their investments nevermind regarding a player being banned from events prior to them even changing team you’re naive in the extreme.

    Corona is famously shit tier source. Everyone clowned him when he released news about Fagioli, because that’s how he is usually treated.

    This is just a quick reminder to people that he isn’t Ornstein Tier0 source, it’s entirely possible he is just milking the story as much as possible.
