The Serie B standings, after four matchdays, are now clear, and see PisaSpezia and Juve Stabia lead the way with 8 points (CLICK HERE for the full ranking); but this trio could undergo a change, and the Tuscan team of mister Filippo Inzaghi could take the lead alone, with 10 points. Even without playing, and right during the national break. The reason is very simple, a forfeit victory could arrive for the match against Cittadella last August 27th.
As is known, the result of the match (1-1) was not approved because the Nerazzurri appealed for an error in the team sheet, where a member of Cittadella, Jacopo Desogus, who later entered the field, did not appear. An oversight confirmed by the coach of the Veneto team Edoardo Gorini: “It was naivety, a mistake – we read in the online edition of The Tyrrhenian Sea -, but it can happen and in any case we sorted ourselves out in the necessary time, we did what the Prosecutor’s Office said and so we are calm”.
Now, always according to what the aforementioned newspaper reports, the decision of the Sports Judge, expected for Thursday 5 September: there will be time until tomorrow to present their own briefs, then the evaluation of the competent bodies. With two possible scenarios: If Cittadella had informed the referee (Alberto Ruben Arena of the Torre del Greco section) in time, there would only be a fine, otherwise it would have been a forfeit.. We just have to wait.
