All posts re: the Italian Football Scandal (Moggipoli)

well in a way its not juve its moggi thats done this to juve. im not defending them because they get everything they deserve but its ot that the club as a whole was in on this. were they?. i read that because juve lost at reggina in november 2004 moggi locked the referee (Gianluca Papresta) and his linesmen in the dressing room and fled the stadium!.

It is always for me, sad to see the demise/decline of an icon, but true icons rise phoenix like from the ashes...to return to their true place.

So, while this may be premature, I will feel a small sense of loss when/if the Serie A starts, minus Juve.

Milan have faced this adversity, and have risen spectacularly from the depths of despair, to achieve what only Real Madrid can surpass, in terms of European glory...

Juve, I am sure, will rebound from this, and to their fans, players, and the innocent, I say this: Your time will come.

Thanks for the reply Tony!

Bless. (as we say in Jamaica!!)

Ok, so what are these statements by Berlu? Are they pertaining to the scandal? Whats going on my Italian speaking fellow fans?

PLEASE keep us informed!!

Juventus fans are set to stage a march through the streets because of the Calciopoli scandal.

The Old Lady of Italian football are in the middle of the match-fixing allegations and the march is planned to show the fans' continued allegiance to the club. "The time has arrived for us to take to the streets and show ourselves to be even prouder to be a Juventus fan," announced an official fan club statement. "There are no sentences, penalties or relegations that can take away our belief."

The Bianconeri have been threatened with possibility of being relegated to Serie B as punishment if they are found guilty despite just being crowned as Scudetto champions. The fan club statement also made it clear that the march is not intended to be a protest but more an act of solidarity. "Therefore, in this difficult and delicate time for our Juventus, we have decided to march, not against anyone, but to simply stay compact and tell the whole of Italy that we are Juventus."

The march is set to take place on July 1 and will end outside the club's headquarters.

we know who they are a club living on the edge!

Are you worrying? LOL! I thought I was the only paranoid one. Someone from Jamaica told me this couple of weeks ago. LOL!

Kui, let me be honest: I am desperate to hear confirmation of Juve´s relegation...and thats the truth...due in no small part to the $hevchenko saga...this news, when/if confirmed, would really be the best thing since we won the UCL or scudetto.

I'm sorry, but I'm very busy lately...
I hope to be back sooon

I hope that they are relegated but Maldini said that 'if we are awarded the last two Scuddettos we wont be celebrating a prize which has already been celebrated for.'

Honestly if Milan where to be found guilty in this scandal I would want Galliani's head to be cut of in Piazza Duomo! I really can't understand that we have that power and we won 'only' 2 Serie A titles in the last 10 years, plus that in the one to one matches vs Juve they always had the ref whistling something for them. I can't really immagine Galliani agreeing with Moggi for us to finish second! It is so stupid.

However till now there is nothing serious for us and the fact that Guido Rossi confirmed Galliani as Lega president (I never agreed with it) shows more that we're not involved...... till now, but if there's something serious for Milan I think it would have already gone out.

Yesterday Meani (which is the guy that represents Milan with refs and AIA) said that the calls he made to linesmen where of his initiative and he was ordered nothing from Galliani and Galliani knew nothing. Maybe ..... we may risk to start with -3 points next season for this but till now I can't see anything worse than this for us.

Franco, what do you think the chances are that Juventus will also start with a negative points total ... say like -12 or something ?

I think this might be more likely than Juventus being relegated.

Jeasus Christ!!! Is Galliani an IDIOT? How much more money does he need to feel happy???? Its all about money, isnt it? If he had a deal with Moggi about Juve 1st and Milan 2d he got himself something out of that..couple of millions...or more? Idiot! Such a good team as Milan deserved f*cking first place!b If it appears to be truth, I might kill him..really!

If juve gets only a point deduction for next year I swear of seeing anymore the Serie A. JUSTICE HAS TO BE DONE.

Moggi's system was manipulating refs in favours of juve and other teams that took GEA players, he had power and control on Bergamo and Piaretto i.e. he 'chose' refs for juve's game and ordered refs to give cards to players that in the week after will play juve. Moggi had done a lot!! RELEGATION FOR JUSTICE For Serie A to be credible gobbi must be relegated (I think they will not escpare it this time.... Italians have to give a credible image to their league) BTW phone conversations are an great evident against juve so...
