Just seen on Sky Sports News that Reggina have avoided relegation from Serie A in the match-fixing controversy but will start the league with a 15 point penalty.

That will proabably mean relegation for them.

Yeah it will be a tough season ahead for them. They only got 37 points last season so it will be hard to avoid relegation.

Thats the 2nd harshest punishment of the lot!

???

Thats easily the harshest!!

Juve got of lightly, very lightly, nothing harsh about that one!

How guilty are Reggina? I wasn't sure how heavily they were implicated in the scandal so I didn't want to pass judgement on the severity of their punishment. However, it wouldn't surprise me if they are punished more severely as they are not a 'glamourous' club like the other teams.
