Collina resignation rejected
Tuesday 30 August, 2005--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Italian Association of Referees (AIA) have revealed that they intend to reject the resignation of Pierluigi Collina.
The official quit the AIA on Monday following a conflict of interests row, which erupted after he signed a sponsorship deal with Opel - a company who also support Milan.
"His departure is a surprise," stated AIA chief Tullio Lanese. "We will turn down his resignation and inform Collina of that decision. We’ll then see what happens.
"I want him to stay within the association even if he doesn’t referee matches anymore. He can keep his contract but I want him to still be a part of our team.
"I still have great admiration for Collina as a man and a referee. However, I will repeat that there are rules in place and they have to be respected."
Italian Football Federation chief Franco Carraro commented: "We are saddened by Collina’s resignation.
"Collina is a valuable resource for not only the AIA but also for Italian football. We’ll see what happens over the next few days."
Inter President Giacinto Facchetti is also disappointed that the world’s best referee has opted to walk away.
"We are losing a referee who could have been precious in a difficult championship with so many important games," he said. "Collina has always been regarded as the best on the planet.
"I don’t feel that it is right for me to make a judgement in this case. But it does seem to me that there are a number of conflict of interest issues in the game already."
Italy boss Marcello Lippi has urged his fellow Viareggio resident to reconsider his decision.
"I hope that he changes his mind and that he can continue to do the good work he has always done," he stated. "I never expected this to happen." 好賤格....:icon092: Originally posted by thomaskung at 2005-8-30 05:29 PM:

Collina courted controversy this summer after signing a sponsorship deal with car manufacturers Opel – the same company who back Milan. Collina Resignation To Be Rejected

The Italian Association of Referees (AIA) are set to reject the resignation of high-profile official Pierluigi Collina.
The referee quit on Monday due to a conflict of interests row after he signed a sponsorship deal with Opel, a company also associated with Milan.
"His resignation is a surprise. We will turn it down and inform Collina of that decision," said AIA chief Tullio Lanese. "Then we’ll see what happens.
"I want him to stay within the association even if he doesn’t referee matches anymore. He can keep his contract but I want him to still be a part of our team." Collina To End Career In Premiership?

The Italian referee is considering the offers from England and Qatar.
We may still see Pierluigi Collina on the pitch, as new scenarios have opened-upfor the most famous match director in the world of football. England and Qatar have in fact asked Collina to continue his job in their respective leagues.
These offers fascinate the most famous whistle in the world and he is taking them into consideration, especially the Premiership idea. In England Chelsea have the same sponsor as the referee association (Emirates Airlines) and this situation has not stirred any controversy, whereas in Italy, Collina having the same sponsor as Milan was the reason why the referee from Viareggio decided to call it quits, following too many raised debates.
The only problem would be that the man-in-black would have to undertake an airplane trip every week from Italy to England and back, which might be too tiring for the 46-year-old Collina. For this reason, another interesting scenario would be that of a commentator post during Serie A matches, which is also a big possibility. 去英超吧:o
