Rocko, at the age of 20 in 1998, emailed UEFA after that year’s UEFA Cup Final to complain that Internazionale had breached the controversial three-foreigner rule that existed at the time and should therefore be stripped as competition winners.
larryduff was also involved in the drafting of the email.
Rocko and larry received no response from European football’s governing body.
who the fuck was sending e-mails in 1998, posh cunts
Email in 1998?! I hadn’t even mastered the post in '98.
Shocking revelation all the same.
Refer to the ‘Things You Are Good At’ thread.
Rocko prides himself on “staying ahead of the technological obsolescence curve”.

If Rocko had been successful Lazio would have been handed the trophy by default. He’s clearly a closet fascist.

I think it was three non-EU players and two assimilated you were allowed at the time. Inter had:
Zanetii
Taribo West
Simeone
Ze Elias
Zamorano
Ronaldo
and then Recoba on the bench. Just seemed wrong. I’m sure Zanetti or someone had an Italian passport.
