Casa Martelletti 2001 Barolo
Wednesday, January 30th, 2008I thought Manchester City were supposed to be rich. Has “Frank” Shinawatra hit on hard times? The January transfer window was supposed to be a time for acquisition…. for us to brandish our financial muscle like a well-endowed porn star unleashing his not inconsiderable appendage to impressive gasps.
Top of our list was a striker or two….or maybe not. Georgios Samaras has just gone to Celtic on loan and Rolando Bianchi found more lush grazing pastures on a small square of Roman green belt known as the Stadio Olimpio, albeit that Sr. Bianchi’s debut for Lazio lasted just 5 minutes before he saw not green, but red, and was promptly sent for an early bath.
