Should Internazionale of milano (inter milan) beat siena at the san sior stadium this weekend they will claim there fourth league title on the trot and 17th overall thus equaling that of hated city rivals AC Milan.
I have always liked Inter, since i got hooked on football in about 93-94. Supporting a side like Lincoln, you need to have a second side and for me it was Inter. there were a couple of reasons. firstly i liked the kit and secondly AC Milan were at the time the best team in the world and as i have never been one to follow the crowd i picked inter. also the won the UFEA cup that year so i thaught i would follow them.
Back then there was a Italian football show on a Saturday morning then on the Sunday a live game. this was normally juventus, parma lazio (because of gazza) or one of the two milan clubs.
At the time however Inter were pretty crap. the title was fought out between Juventus and Milan with Parma there abouts. Inter were normally fighting it out just to get into the UFEA cup and were to be honest the laughing stock of the league (in much the same way liverpool were in the 90,s)
millions were spent in the 90,s but inter never seemed to get anywhere, they had great players, palugia was one of the best keepers i have ever seen, plus the likes of roberto baggio, roberto carlos ronaldo plus many many other came and went along with plenty of managers but still not even a shout of the championship the most exciting it got was a last minute goal in a 2-1 win over Torino that got us a UFEA cup spot one year
So although some people this season has been a failure because of the champions league defeat, i just look back at the years between 1989 and 2005 when we never won the title. back in the 90,s i would never have thaugh that one title was possible, let alone four in a row! so i will enjoy the moment and just think and remember how bad it was!!
FORZA INTER!!!!
