What a complete non-story. Any reason to show Juventus in a negative light, this time to throw the word 'mafia' next to Juve.

Of course this is nothing to do with Agnelli's/Juve's ongoing legal battle with the FIGC. Bunch of fat bellied, old anti-juve who can't stand our domination.

Reminds me of old KGB methods of media warfare. Spread rumours of some opposition politician to be a child pornography collector, most people will not believe it, then have your state controlled media dismantle the rumours nice and slow while repeating the word child pornography as often as possible. It's highly effective because the person will always be associated with that affair in the minds of ppl. Can't stay in a public position with that smell and have to resign

The anti-Juve "old boys club" within the halls of power in the FIGC still alive and kicking. This reminds me of the Conte/Siena saga, they tried their best to de-rail us after our first Scudetto in years. They don't even try to hide it anymore.

It is just ridiculous how much shit is written about our club all the time, in an attempt to destabilise the club... Consistently coming out with these non-stories..

All of this was expected.

We're to strong again, just like in 2006.

I expect even stronger attacks and new "affair" in coming weeks.

It's been a few years since a good old scandal, have to keep the plates spinning.

What I don't get is how it's not expected and known that a portion of ultras are criminals? It's the same across the country, same in other countries. Does it become important at a certain level, if you are a certain club? I imagine we are probably the most high profile club with these kind of people in the fan base, probably in Europe. Or is it just important because of mafia ties?

it's just media shitstorm nothing gonna happen to juventus.
Beside a fine for Juventus and light punishment for A.A
Last week I would have said the same, but you can already see where this is heading and it is the beginning. The ironic thing is that Allegri has done more than any other president in reducing the control of ultras, perhaps with the exception of Roma in the last year or so. They were and still are holding clubs to ransom, but a lot changed once the tessera was introduced.
