How can we not still be class? It's not like our players or coaching staff had any knowledge of this. Certain people on our Board cheated, not the team, they gave 100% in every one and I thank them greatly for that. To punish our whole team like this is completely unfair to the players and fans who did nothing wrong. How can we possibly not rebuild our image? It won't be tainted forever. What if one day we end up winning the Serie A and the Cl in the same year and start to dominate again, are we still not a prestigous club, because of something that was done in the past? Will we not still be a prestigous club if we rebuild our image and get through this dark point in the club's history? Look at Milan, they were relegated in the early 80s for match fixing, it didn't take too long for them to come back on top, and pretty much everyone has forgotten about that dark point in Milan's history. Hell, I'll go as far as to say you probably had no clue Milan were once relegated for match-fixing.
Yeah that's lovely, you read about three of my paragraphs and build one whole arguement based off my last line? real smart there.
why don't you tackle some of the real issues i addressed, rather than the fact that i don't forgive cheating clubs easily.
Prestige isn't some crap you can throw around, sure Juventus will probably come back and be a successful club again, but success =/= prestige. Sure, they tend to go hand in hand, but they are not the same thing. I'll agree this is unfair to the players, as i am aware they did nothing wrong, but what should we do? sit back? do nothing? "oh hur hur they cheated but that's too slack to the players and the fans so we should just let them go" :boohoo: :boohoo:
The board didn't cheat just for giggles, they did it for the players, they did it for the fans, and most importantly they did it for the club, so please forgive me if i misunderstood the fact that the board represents the club. I don't tend to post much, but to sit here and watch some guy make an ignorant and uninformed post that implies that Juventus has more class than Inter just doesn't go down well with me.
One was found guilty of cheating, one was not even mentioned, not the players, not the coach, but the club, how could you possibly come to the conclusion that the cheating club has more class than the non cheating club ladies?
So please, explain how Juventus has more class than Inter, and in the process tell me how calling proven match fixers "cheaters" is uninformed, because i don't know about you, but when every newspaper in the world says the same thing i tend to take their word on it.
and yes, i hate Milan also, i just didn't think it was relevant to bring them up, does Milan's cheating make Juve any less cheaters? No, and i never said that the world will always see Juventus as cheaters just me, because hell, half the people in this forum have already forgotten about it and it's been what..? a week? 2?
noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
With Deschamps saying we could, who will we buy, I have a feeling no one will wanna come to us. 
. I remember he had a Kovac avatar for about 5 months last year until we eventually signed him plus he predicted Vieira's and Zanetti's transfers weeks before (and Marchionni's I think).
