bcfcphoenix Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 Italian football is rife with corruptionAnd the financial rescue of Real Madrid by their council was arguably equally dubious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grifty Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 And the financial rescue of Real Madrid by their council was arguably equally dubiousthats similar to what used to/still does happen to juvei believe the old/current italian president was a season ticket holder and used to pump money into them via the government - hence why juve are in hundreds of millions of pounds worth of debt yet can still buy players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Red Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 If they're found guilty of match fixing & bribing referees, they face relegation to Serie B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all a bit odd... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lita For Congo Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 They are moving from the Delle Api as the local Juve fans dislike the ground so much they get crowds of around 9,000 for some games where they choose to stay away so they have had to move away. The new ground can be expanded apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
