Hier een beetje info , sorry voor de lange post.
Juventus and AC Milan reacted on Friday after prominent current and former members of the clubs were charged in the match-fixing scandal which has rocked Italian football.
On Thursday, Juve, Fiorentina, Lazio and Milan and 26 individuals were told they would answer charges in a sporting court over allegations of match-fixing.
The individuals have not been officially named due to privacy laws in the country.
However, AC Milan vice president Adriano Galliani revealed he is among the 26 individuals who will stand trial in Rome next week.
Milan are being investigated for a suspected violation of Article One of the Sports Justice Code - which insists upon 'fairness, correctness and honesty'.
The maximum penalty is for points to be deducted going into the subsequent season.
Galliani has stepped down from his position as Lega Calcio president but insisted he is innocent of any wrong-doing.
'After I saw my name on the list of the accused, I resigned straight away as president of the Italian football league. Now I will live better, even if the accusation has been referred only on the basis of Article One,' said Galliani.
'I have decided to resign from my position as president of the Italian football league, but I wish to make it clear that this can not in any way be interpreted as an admission of responsibility.
'The charges against me are an injustice and I reiterate that I am a total stranger to this affair.'
Italian champions Juventus have confirmed former club directors Luciano Moggi and Antonio Giraudo will stand trial, also.
Along with Fiorentina and Lazio, Juventus are being investigated for suspected violations of both Article One and Article Six.
Article Six covers actions 'aimed at altering the course of result of a match, or at ensuring an advantage to anybody in the league table'. The minimum punishment is demotion to an inferior level.
Moggi's bugged phone calls discussing refereeing appointments triggered the current crisis when they were published.
He quit in May as Juve's general director.
Giraudo also stepped aside at the end of the season as the Juve board resigned en masse.
Juventus detailed in a lengthy press release the number of charges made against 'directors and the Company', including some against Moggi and Giraudo.
Juve said the pair will have to answer to the charge of 'behaviour contrary to the principles of loyalty, honesty and fairness and, at the same time, aimed at procuring an advantage in the championship in favour (of) the company Juventus...'
The club statement concluded by saying: 'The company reserves the right to verify if the statements made in the charge sheet are backed up by real elements of evidence, and reserves the right to undertake any activity that it holds appropriate for its defence in subsequent hearings.'
AC Milan president Silvio Berlusconi is convinced his team will be cleared in the investigation.
His club are indirectly involved, and Berlusconi believes they have no case to answer.
In fact, he expects Milan to be awarded two Scudettos, claiming Juventus did not win them fairly.
He said: 'Milan have only been defrauded and I maintain my position: we expect as a minimum two titles.
'I have no fears about any eventual penalties.
'There is no possibility that Milan can come out of this situation with any responsibility that we don't have.
'Milan has absolutely nothing to do with this scandal, from either a penal or moral standpoint,' Berlusconi added.
Fiorentina also released a brief statement following the announcement that they were under investigation.
It read: 'Fiorentina announce that they have been notified of the charges by the Federal Appeal Commission and they have passed the information to their lawyers.'
The trial will commence at Stadio Olimpico in Rome next Wednesday.
