My name is Colani

However, Ferraiolo would not consider whether Hugo's idea was malicious or not. The most important thing was that with this news, the sales of Corriere dello Sport would reach a small peak again. There was too little movement in the transfer market of Serie A this summer, and there were too many poor people. It was not easy to find some fun. Catania was one of the few fun places for everyone.

The reaction was predictable. There were not many fools in this world. Everyone was very smart. When Hugo said this, no one in the football circle did not know what he was thinking!

Carraro certainly knew that Hugo would be punished by heaven and earth if he did not work for himself. He obviously wanted to increase the difficulty of Serie A. This difficulty was relative to the giants. The giants had to deal with European wars every year, with many events and four more rounds of leagues. It actually increased the difficulty of the giants to win the championship. However, for a newly promoted team like Trapani, there were relatively more weak teams in Serie A, and everyone had more opportunities to score points. The hope of relegation was at least increased in theory.

Previously, the Football Association had never thought about expanding the army. Hugo's words were a brainwave. Carraro thought carefully and thought that this was indeed a way. Is there a better way than this? !

Hugo went into battle bare-handed, and others would not be outdone. Moggi said in an interview: "This is a bad idea! It greatly damages the interests of our European teams. Now we have to play many games every season. If the league increases the schedule, it will undoubtedly increase the difficulties of European teams! He deliberately targeted our proposal. I don't understand why he did this?! This is damaging the interests of the entire Italian football!"

Professional League Chairman Galliani was not able to speak, but he also hated Hugo's idea. He called Hugo privately and asked Hugo to talk less!

"No one can stop me from expressing my opinion! You are in charge of everything, so why do you have to control me when I speak?! Besides, my opinion is expressed, and the Football Association also has an idea and an idea! Why are you arguing with me?!" Hugo responded innocently.

Galliani swore that he had never seen Hugo so shameless. Oh, by the way, I forgot about Gaucci and Zamparini. Why can't this damn Trapani stay in Serie B? !

Gaucci stood on Hugo's side at this time, "Catania should not have been relegated. We won the case! I don't care what others think. If someone wants to send Catania to the C1 League, I will never let him go!"

Last season, four teams were relegated from Serie A, Modena, Piacenza, Como, and Torino. The fifth and sixth teams in Serie B were Ancona and Triestina. Hugo's suggestion was that Serie A should expand, but he didn't say who would stay in Serie A.

What Hugo said was not taken as a fact by the Football Association, but the teams have already started activities, the media has started to make noise, and people from all walks of life are waving flags and shouting, as if Hugo's idea has become a fact.

Carraro was going crazy. Hugo saw that the matter was getting bigger and bigger. He found that he was not suitable to intervene. If he made any suggestions, he would offend many people. He underestimated the power of the giants and the determination of the small teams to improve themselves.

Since this matter has not been settled, the schedule of Serie A next season will naturally not be released. According to the Football Association's forecast, the new season of the league will start at the end of August at the latest, because 2004 is the European Cup, and Serie A must be completed early to make time for the European Cup.

The Football Association held a meeting internally, and the Professional League also held a meeting, mainly to coordinate everyone's ideas. Hugo did not attend the meeting in Trapani. He was busy with the team's training and had no time. Besides, he didn't have time to go. He fired a shot and didn't go to the meeting to humiliate himself. He could foresee that if he went, many people would definitely point the finger at him.

So it was General Manager Giorgio who attended the meeting of Trapani. Giorgio followed Hugo's instructions and didn't have to say anything or agree with anyone at the meeting. Trapani seemed to be a fence-sitter at the professional league meeting.

Moggi said Hugo's idea was bad, but could he have a better idea? ! No! All he could do was push the pressure to the Football Association. Carraro was very annoyed. Didn't everyone know what happened to Siena? ! Well, now it's good, stay out of it, how easy is that? !

Carraro really did it once and for all, and directly began to promote the expansion of the Serie A and Serie B leagues. Expansion is of course a good thing, and it is a real good thing for small clubs. This proposal first received the support of many small teams.

Carraro began to work hard to persuade the giants. What did he rely on to persuade the giants? The schedule!

The Football Association can give more care to the European teams in arranging the schedule, and try to avoid continuous fierce battles during the European war!

Juventus, Milan, Inter Milan and other teams really have no other options. It is not enough to just push the pressure to the Football Association. Will the league be suspended and everyone will lose more? Hugo's idea is bad, but now it has aroused the interest of many small and medium teams. The public opinion environment has been formed. Several European teams can hardly think of any good solution. This method at least relatively solves Catania's problem. As long as his team is not relegated, it doesn't matter whether other teams are relegated or not? !

But can we just watch Hugo get what he wants? ! Then Moggi, Galliani, Moratti and others don't want to do it either, so they also raised a question, who will stay in Serie A? ! Will the top four relegated teams stay or will the fifth and sixth place in Serie B be promoted to Serie A? !

This problem is another problem, and it is a problem that is difficult to solve. Everyone is right and everyone is right.

Galliani threw out what everyone had thought about at this time, "The rules are the rules. If there are four relegations in Serie A, then you have to be relegated. There are only four promotion places in Serie B, so you can only upgrade four. Otherwise Talk about fairness! According to this principle, Serie A will not expand this season, but will expand next season. Serie B can have 22 teams this season!”

What he means is that Serie A will still have 18 teams in the 2003-2004 season, while Serie B will increase to 22 teams. It will not be too late to expand Serie A next year.

Galliani's suggestion caused controversy again. Of course, this time he seemed to be fair, and the teams that wanted to fight were not confident enough.

After several days of quarrels, the Football Association finally decided to reform Serie A and Serie B. Hugo got the news about Giorgio in Trapani and was so angry that he dared to brave the world's disapproval, and then he was treated like this by you. Mixed up? !

But he has no choice but to let the Football Association and the professional leagues mess around. It is not a good thing to offend all the middle and upper-tier teams.

As the Catania incident came to an end, the Serie A schedule for the new season was quickly determined, and the schedule for Trapani was also announced. Hugo gave Carraro an insinuation, hoping to give Trapani Ni was taken care of by the schedule, but the result made Hugo quite dissatisfied and angry. It was clear that Carraro had succumbed to the will of some people and gave Trapani a very poor schedule.

In the first round of the league, we met Milan, the new Champions League champions, in the second and third rounds, Lecce and Modena, but in the fourth, fifth, and sixth rounds, we met Roma, Udinese, and Juventus. In the first six rounds, except for the second round The third round was relatively easy, but the other four opponents were extremely difficult to deal with. The strength of these four teams was very good. Isn't this a trick? !

Hugo could conclude that there must be a conspiracy and that this was revenge from the northern team.

"It's not that easy to beat me to death!" Hugo's tone on the phone to Carraro was quite unfriendly.

"Gigi, don't be angry! This schedule is the same for everyone. From another perspective, it is not necessarily a bad thing to meet a strong opponent first. Your team is on the Serie A stage for the first time. If you meet it first, you can see how you are doing. , It’s better than meeting these teams at the end of the season!” Carraro could only argue.

"Haha, so you are doing this for the sake of Trapani! Do I have to write you a letter of praise?! Next step, do you want the referee to kill me?!" Hugo sneered. .

"Gigi, how can you believe such nonsense? How is it possible?! We are friends!" Carraro defended.

"Friend, I helped you with a good idea this time, didn't I?! And you're going to repay me like this, right?!" Hugo scolded fiercely, "I have no bottom line in doing things. If anyone wants to deal with me, Me, I will definitely make them sad. Tell Moggi, Galliani, and Gylfi, who do they think they are in front of me! Don’t go too far and make me anxious. At worst, let’s open the lid again. , look at what dirty things they have done!”

Hugo said harsh words and hung up the phone. Of course, he couldn't really get to the bottom of it. As long as Trapani's interests were not involved, it didn't matter how shady he was, but it was still necessary to threaten them. Let them have some scruples.

After receiving the schedule, Allegri was also frowning. After Hugo scolded him, he was in a much better mood. He smiled broadly and said: "What are you afraid of? The soldiers will cover up the water and the earth. Milan is so awesome?! We used to I defeated them before, and now I can defeat them again!”
