Press
Florentine Sports Gazette: And with the half time score still nil-all, the Milanese back line crumbles, probably due to a bad curry the night before. Meanwhile Aragon's manager resigns mid-match, to howls of derision from the stands, and the Genovese players, who always seemed to be punching above their weight, have come in for some heavy bruising from Milan and Avignon. But here come the marching girls..!!!!!
<cue oompah music>
Pope – All: Stupid Plague. I excommunicate rats.
