Jimbo and James Horncastle take another trip down memory lane on this week’s Golazzo.
With Chievo deducted 3 points for falsifying acccounts, we look back at the time when they were everyone’s second favourite team in Italy.
A newly promoted Chievo team, managed by a former photocopier salesman, took Serie A by storm in 2001/02, setting the early pace in the title race before narrowly missing out on Champions League qualification. This is the incredible tale of flying donkeys, stolen identity and Christmas cake. And great chips. Where did it all go wrong?
Gab Marcotti also analyses the move of chief executive Ivan Gazidis from Arsenal to AC Milan and what he’ll be able to achieve at San Siro.
Plus we discuss an incredible comeback in the Champions League from the usually Spursy Inter against….er, Spurs.
