Actually it does. Italy has some serious problems with corruption. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corruption_Perceptions_Index
You've been to Italy? It is indeed a very corrupt place, if you want anything to get done when you're going to public services, you always need to give the people money under the table...

And I won't even mention the bureaucratic nightmare that is Italy...
Yes, I've been to Italy. I lived there for many years when I was younger.
Yes, corruption is present - but if you think that Italy is the only country in the world like that, you're sadly mistaken.

Every country has their own skeletons in the closet.

IT DOESN'T MATTER.

Here's what an average tv viewer in Europe sees:

a) Juventus are relegated because of match fixing
b) Juve's head coach Conte is now under investigation because of his involvement in a betting scandal

You tell me what he'll conclude.
I know, but I don't think you got my point. I know that we're not involved as a club, but our name is now being dragged through the mud again, which causes damage to our image.
Not our name. Conte's. Honestly if everyone is too stupid to read on and make the distinction than what difference does it make, so long as this time Conte's innocence holds up in court? Nada. I think a lot of people are wiser than you might think when it comes to the slander in the media, especially in an era where public crucifixion of people and brands via news paper headlines is an everyday occurrence. Populations grow weary of the media's tactics. I mean, who on here actually takes goal.com or IF articles seriously anymore? Our name being 'dragged through the mud' (in this case anyway) has no tangible bearing on the football club itself unless Conte is charged and found guilty in court. Papers and public opinion is irrelevant.

The more i think of it,it seems more ridiculous.

You've got to be really stupid to just walk in the dressing room and declare the "we have nothing to worry about,the is fixed" thing.
I'm sure he's clean.

Forza Antonio!
