Ok, for over 20 years now I have been a very passionate Milan fan. I went to Italy over 30 times in 10 years to see them, went to 2 champions league finals(paying over £400 for one ticket),and have about 80 different AC Milan shirts. Today, at midnight, that passion was killed, and the club showed exactly where they are in the football food chain. If we are one of the "BIG" clubs as we claim, then we have no reason to have to sell a player. Even more so, when he is one of the top 3 players in the world, and we sell him to another big club. But yet, we sold Kaka to Real Madrid. Will Man Utd sell Ronaldo to them, I doubt it, would Barca sell Messi to anyone? Not a chance in hell! We had one of the greats, who wanted to stay for his whole career, but we thanked him buy accpeting a stupid offer from Man City. This he saw, correctly as Milan saying, we love you, but our love has a price. He never went, which for us would have been better as it was more money, and City, despite their billions are shit, and will remain shit. Real though are rivals in the world market, and so, buying selling our key asset to them, we are nothing.
Will we even spend that money on anything? Probably not, maybe another player on the verge of retirement............ who knows. Will Ronaldinho and Beckham save us as Galliani says, BOLLOX to that they will. So, after all these years of loyal support, I find myself in an amazing position. Milan is no longer my 1st club, they aren't even in my top 10. My new official team is Sao Paolo,for Europe it is one of the Barca clubs,with preference to RCD Espanyol, and my Italian tram,and 2nd favourite team??? USC Cremonese. At least they are honest with their fans, they admit where they are in the league. As for next years Serie A, I don't care.......

friendship
Ok, it has been a longgggggggggg time since my last blog. The reasons for this are numerous, and will at some point be covered in a blog. If you are curious though, it realates to work and life. I have had so much to do, so much to try and help organize(yes honey I know you have had alot more), but between work and wedding plans I have had an awakening, and this blog will be on that.
It seems very appropiate today, well over this period as I guess there is another example which we celebrate. So, friends, what are they? If you look it up, it means a person whom one knows well and likes;supporter. Interesting view. Why do you trust these people? If you know them well, and like them, does that mean you would do anything for them? I guess different people see this in different ways.
For me, if I am a friend, it means I would do anything for this person, givc them a shoulder to cry on if it is needed, support them for any troubles, support them through any challenges, support them through the adventures of life, be them good or bad. If a friend needs money I will try and give it to them, if they need someone to talk to I will make sure I am there no matter what. If they have a big day, I want to be there and celebrate with them.
I have found over the last few months, organizing our wedding that my views aren't normal, or so it seems. When I needed an ear, someone to talk to most of my friends have been there for me, but some haven't. I assumed they were busy, life goes on, no problem. Hey I will give them 6 months warning for our wedding, so they will be there. Sadly not true. How many times have I heard, argh sorry I can't afford it? or I can't get the time off? Surely these are good reasons, are they not? Well honestly, to me, NO. I would go to there wedding anywhere in Europe. I have a house,bills etc, and a shit income. The majority of my "friends" still live at home, so pay "rent", thats it. The few that are home owners have good jobs, and earn good money.. so really when they say " I can't afford it", what they really mean is "I can't be fucked". I have really found out who my friends are recently, and after I am married, and living my dream life with the lady I love with all my heart, the friends that let me down, well do I need these leeches any more? Honestly NO. I only need Chiara in my life, this is something I have learnt as of late. She makes me happy, she is always there for me, and we both are so happy together anything else is just a bonus. I think when my life is complete, which is will be soon, I will only care about my Chiara, our families, and my real friends. All the others will mean nothing to me, as clearly I mean to them. I am devastated one of the people I thought was one of my best friends is going to be in this list, but I have seen he clearly isn't one of my best friends, so it is no big loss.
I am not comparing these people to Judas, and myself to Jesus, not even close, but, that is why I felt it was appropiate to write it now. Jesus was a far better person than me, and even though he knew he was going to be betrayed he just continued on with his lfe. I am not that strong, I need true friends not pretend friends. I wonder if this makes any sense to anyone, am I babbling now? It is getting late, should go, ciao tutti
