    Yeah, that's most likely, they could get it done before the end of the season but it's unlikely.

    Why did they lift the ban on their curva for this weekend? Typical Italy, a player gets racially abused by opposition fans and gets banned for celebrating a goal but the team whose fans abused him get away with it.

    It will be an absolute disgrace if Juve are allowed play in Europe next year.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,951 ✭✭✭✭NIMAN


    What exactly did they do wrong, that other teams aren't doing?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,393 ✭✭✭✭breezy1985


    Outside of this they also have another investigation coming up. From the proper law too not just CONI.

    It was always obvious they couldn't afford the likes of Ronaldo and you can what about all you like but only one team was caught on phone detailing how they were cheating.

    Their defense isn't even innocence it's that the evidence can't be included as new evidence.

    The Agnelli's should never be allowed near football ever again.

    While most clubs have done it to a certain extent, Juve pushed it to an extreme. They also have the recordings of them talking about how they were doing it and how Paratici was doing it too much, they were tapping their phones because of the wage scandal and heard them talking about inflating player values for capital gains. The wage scandal is what they should be most worried about because what they are accused of is actually illegal and could have much worse punishments than the capital gains.

    I still maintain they arent doing what most of the other clubs in Europe are also doing.

    Why did they get their 15pt deduction recinded?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,393 ✭✭✭✭breezy1985


    They got it suspended not cancelled as some reports say.

    It now has to go back to the original sporting court but with a different judges panel.

    It doesn't matter a damn if other people are guilty and getting away with it. They were caught rotten by their own words.

    Should City if found guilty get off with all their under the table payments and fake sponsors because "a shure others are probably at it" ?

    Hahaha what a pleasurable way to see Juve lose



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,393 ✭✭✭✭breezy1985


    Forgot I can't start watching Milan vs Roma until 5:15 because because of that stupid FA rule.

    Osimhen gets the equaliser and that may be enough to get them officially over the line.

    33 years later, they've finally gotten over the line.

    Napoli are the Champions with 5 games to spare.

    Delighted for them.

    Delighted for Spaletti as well. He's worked his way up from the bottom.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,951 ✭✭✭✭NIMAN


    Stuttered over the last few games, but league was never in doubt from a long way out. Fully deserved.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,393 ✭✭✭✭breezy1985


    Feels weird to have such a dramatic stroll to the title.

    Very deserving winners. Played the best football in Europe this season.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,393 ✭✭✭✭breezy1985


    Big win for Milan against Lazio. The 2 goals are worth a watch both good but both very stoppable and Lazio will be kicking themselves.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,951 ✭✭✭✭NIMAN


    2nd was a great run, surprised he wasn't pulled down long before he got to the edge of the box.

    But the 1st was good?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,393 ✭✭✭✭breezy1985


    It was the determined run to win the ball and to do it without fouling the defender rather than the finish or anything like that.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,658 ✭✭✭adaminho


    Bonucci has anounced his retirement at the end of the season.

    Down to 7th and 3 nil down aswell.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,951 ✭✭✭✭NIMAN


    To be fair, they are a really poor team.

    This weekend is crucial now.

    Juve vs Milan, Fiorentina vs Roma and inter vs Atalanta

    If Milan can stay 3 points ahead of Roma and Atalanta then the Champions League is all tied up



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,393 ✭✭✭✭breezy1985


    Roma out of the Champions League race. Inter vs Atalanta coming up which could end the race if Inter win.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,545 ✭✭✭dor83


    Yeah but Roma can still get it by winning the Europa League. Inter started well but let Atalanta back into it, Inter really should have push forward and scored another couple.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,393 ✭✭✭✭breezy1985


    True but in terms of the league the places will be set.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,545 ✭✭✭dor83


    Yeah, looks like it's done now. I do hope that all 3 Italian sides win their European finals, Inter are the least likely but there's always a chance.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,393 ✭✭✭✭breezy1985


    Edit: Juve can still catch Milan if they don't pick up at least a point tomorrow.

    Spezia vs. Verona, 5th ever relegation play-off in Italy.

    Spezia played 10 vs. 12 for the last 5 minutes. I am only joking, slightly! Mancini was subbed off after 82 minutes, but spent the next 20 minutes running up and down the sideline without a bib. Spezia were unlucky that they played a side who needed something because the ball boys refused to give them the balls when they were trying desperately to get back into the game. Europe beckons for Roma, just a few days after they were sickened by it.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,951 ✭✭✭✭NIMAN


    Bad luck for Tammy Abraham in last game of the season to do his ACL.

    looks like he was set for a potential move as well.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,393 ✭✭✭✭breezy1985


    Maldini and Massara sacked by Milan.

    The players most of whom they signed are furious.

    They were probably the 2 key players in Milans revival.
