When their coach Conte has been proven innocent in the investigations it will be, you're right.

IT has nothing to do with Conte at Juve, but from when he was at Siena. Same with Bonucci, to do with his Bari days.

I know, but when something like this happens you always remember back to what Juve done.

Not the day to slag off Juventus, when everyone else is leaving their respects for their fans who died in Heysel.

Edit: Also has nothing to do with them, they've been punished.

How am I meant to know, I am not Italian or a fan of Juventus. I am not slagging them off either, I am just saying how when something like this happens in Italy you are reminded back to what Juventus done..... where is the problem with that.

If you dont know dont post or if you post find out before you do. You know also it wasn't just Juve that was involved right? You make it sound all the time that Juve were only one involved in calciopoli. People are trying to forget that so no wonder people dont want to speak or hear about it.

And in Juve main culprits were Juve GM's Moggi and Giraudo.

The main culprits is besides the point, they were involved. Lets just drop it now anyway, as you think I am slagging Juventus off.

Lol what the ****? How is someone supposed to not post unless they know something that they don't know, so should know before they post, which they don't know they need to know, before they know they can post?

Herp derp.

He wasn't slagging off Juventus, he was just making a point that they recently had a similar thing happened to them.

Despite the lack of punctuation, his post makes perfect sense.

Maybe poor choice of words from me, but what I meant was that he should check facts before posting. At least for me it is common sense.
 
Unsure how someone is to know something that they don't know they need to know, but OK.

Well, looking at his post...

"If you dont know dont post or if you post find out before you do"

Kinda obvious that it's meant to say "If you don't know about the subject, then don't post about the subject. Or if you do intend to post about the subject then research about the subject before commenting."

I suppose when you put it like that, it does make sense, but I am still unaware how he was slating Juventus when he mentioned them, as by my knowledge, they were the highest profile team involved in the previous match fixing scandal.
 
I have a feeling Italy will win or at least get to the final of the Euro's with this scandal and the earthquake in Italy yesterday aswell. I have a feeling it will galvanise them rather than hinder them which is bad news for me as an Ireland supporter
 
Am I the only thinking that Italy has the best squad right now? Seriously top class defense (probably the best right now) and mid (Pirlo and De Rossi ftw) and some creativity and flair forward with Giovinco and Balotelli. I am very sure that everyone will have difficulties scoring against them, especially if they get back to protect a result. Sure Spain and Germany got explosive forwards and some unique passing and creativity, but their defense is poor too. And as Red Auerbah used to say "The defense makes the Champion".

Spain and Germany probably have better squads, France's is right up there too.

Very good squad. Defensivley especially. But no where near as good as Germany, Holland and Spain. Balotelli is too unreliable as their main striker, they will miss G. Rossi big time.
 
Zeman confirmed for Roma by the Italian media, however Zeman in an interview said that he has not negotiated still his contract, but they are almost in an agreement with Roma's board. Let's see what one of the best Italian talent finder will get us this season. The expectations are very high with such a coach!
