FOOOOOOOOOORZA JUVE!​

 

[mark77]

I think that after close to 8000 I should say something about the site and the good and bad times I spent here. I'll start by saying that without knowing what will happen to my dear Juventus(sounds like it will be serie is that no matter what happens I'll always be a Juventino for life and even after. I bleed black & white. People can say whatever they say about the old lady but I still find her attractive. Juventus to me is a passion that I can't describe. I cheered like crazy when they won the CL in 1996. I got up at 5 in the morning to listen to the Intercontinetal Cup that we won in 97. Juve made me happy and sometimes sad. That goes for every fan of any team.
I remember when I 1st came here, I wanted to add kits and stuff for my Fifa 97 and then I discovered the soccer forum. I met a lot of good people here and found out a lot about other teams and their supporters. I had a blast here and will continue so even if I won't post like a madman. It's time for old geysers like me to move on but it won't be easy. I'll go out gradually.
Thanks to all the guys here who made it fun to come here. I know I'll forget some of you and please forgive me.

:Bow: Mark :Bow:


Your the definition of a true fan. I wish all the best to you Juventus fans and hopefully nothing serious happens to Juventus in the upcoming season.

 

[santino]

it must be heartbreaking that the fans have to suffer through this.you can't pick up and leave like that pussy Capello does.With Juve distances from the scum Triade and after some justified years in lower divisions, hopefully they can bring themselves back up to a powerhouse team that has a reputation built on its own merits rather than gifted titles. I hate Juventus with a passion but for the sake of Calcio, pick yourselves back up in due time.

Take care Mark

 

[SlowSilver]

Sorry for my ignorance, but when did you sign Zanetti?

Oh, and take care Mark.

 

[jani]

meh, wake up at 5am in the morning to watch a game? I do that all the time

Ah, Mark...truly one of the best members around. You gave another example of that in the post above, everything came from the heart.
You see, there won't be many fans like you, at least not any soon, many would drop their favourite club in the situation Juve currently is in, though I don't think you ever thought of even following a different club other than la vecchia signora, and for that you deserve as much respect as you can get from us. You're truly a person anyone would be honoured to know or even talken to. Thanks Mark, thank you for everything.

What are you dying or something? And where's me in that list? Aren't I one of your internet friends?

 

[Mishkin]

*hands out tissues*

You're all a bunch of sappy losers.

 

[Juventino]

I think it's time for you to get over your World Cup loss. But you seem to like it, so why not rub it in?

Keep it coming, moron.

 

[Mishkin]

Wasn't that like 2 weeks ago? I don't care about that anymore.

 

[jani]

you are just plain weird, man.

 

[RuiCosta_10]

I really wouldn't like to see Juve get relegated, i mean, they do deserve for what they did, but i put myself on the fans situation and damn... It must be really bad (:/)

Although, i need to think at my club and think that if you got relegated we can get Miccoli... (wich is super hiper mega amazing)

Sorry guys... A bit of egoism of my part...

 

[Best's_cadaver]

29 Serie A championships*




* Awaiting the scandals' verdict.


Anyways i really hope you guys will return on top soon, lets say in 2 years in the Serie A and the year after to the UEFA cup.

 

[Mishkin]

you are just plain weird, man.

Really? Why's that?

 

[jani]

suddenly you've become some kind of sadist.

Cheers Mark. You are a top poster and a top admin on this site, and that really speaks to the passion you have for a club. I am very sad to hear that you will be weening yourself off SG, but I can always hope that like Juve, you can return in all your former glory some day

Cheer up guys: the idiocy of Moggi will never taint what your club is because its about fans, players and history. Those things will live on forever, no matter where you are playing
