Why?

I'm not a great follower of football, if the truth be told I can't stand the game, but when I found this report even I was forced into a outburst

Korea hero facing Perugia axe - report

 

By Ananova

 

South Korean hero Ahn Jung-Hwan is facing the sack from Serie A club Perugia.

 

Ahn, whose extra-time golden goal sent Italy crashing out of the World Cup, has an uncertain future in Italian football.

 

Perugia owner Luciano Gaucci has threatened to fire Ahn, according to several Italian papers.

 

"I am not going to pay the salary of a guy who has been the ruin of Italian soccer," Gaucci told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

 

Ahn has been on loan at Perugia from K-League club Busan since the start of the 2000-2001 season.

I mean what the hell, he's playing for his damn country, not Italy.

I got that mailed to me down here as well and was inclined to fire up a bit but really who cares? He will get a game anywhere now. How do we know that a crap player didn't just luck into the goal of his life?

Typical fcukin italians that is, can't take anythin on the chin like a man .

Bunch of whinin poofters the lot of em .

 

No offence to any Italiano forumer of course !

England would've probably done the same, everyones up in arms about it but could you imagine the reception Theirry Henry would've got had he scored a goal that would've knocked Engkans out! yeah right, we would all open our arms out to him eh?? Like Bollox!

 

This great country that we are turn on our own players (ie, David Beckham, John Barnes etc etc) so we cant talk!

[TidyTraxGrant]

Yeah but the club wouldn't get rid of the player just coz of summit like that .

Only an Italian boss could do summit as fuckin stupid as that !
