Firstly, why the hell to the coaches care about Zalayeta and our match? Juventus doesn´t complan about refereeing of other matches. Is Zalayeta a Roma, Milan or Inter player?!

Secondly, Zalayeta dived. He could of made a simple jump to avoid Buffon, but instead he went on flying like he was hit by a speeding car. And he didn´t complain when he was awarded a penalty.

Anyway, I don´t care much about Zalayeta´s ban, what I care about is the referee who was dreadful. He fell for Zalayeta´s fly even though the whole crowd (except for Reja :rolleyes: ) noticed the simulation was obvious. OK, maybe from his position it was hard to tell but where were the linesmen?! Did he even consult them? Surely they could have noticed better.

Now they claim it was maybe Legrottaglie who pulled Zalayeta (which they are also not sure). In that case, Buffon´s yellow card is false (it is false eiter way you look at it). And not only Buffon´s. Our player who are suspended for Empoli game got yellow cards for prostesting which means ref screwed us in numerous ways.

Considering even worse mistake in the Lavezzi´s case this ref definitely deserved his supsension and it could have been worse, like sending him to Serie B. If he cannot handle this kind of matches, he shouldn´t be in Serie A.

Main conclusion is that Juventus matches need better, more competent referees. And Collina needs to soap it.

Ups, my bad. But still you must admit that the joke was good :D
:agree:

For me it is not about should Zala and Lavezzi being banned or not. But it's a matter about a bad referee..

We as a fan should unite together with Juve in this bad situation. It will make us even bigger. Forza Juve forever.
:tup: Perfect point.


Spalletti, Mancio & Ancelotti have defended Zalayeta. A player takes a point away from us & our rivals think he's great? Surely not :shocked:

Zalayeta not being banned doesn't affect us. Why should the next two teams benefit from his absence?

As far as video replay in Italy is concerned, I find it strange that when it was proposed by the league of directors a few years back for Serie A the very same directors that used to cry about corrupt referees voted against the use of replays.

Th proposal was for penalties, offsides, and phantom goals. Among those voting no was Moratti and Galliani and numerous little clubs. I really think Juve voted yes but can't find the article anywhere anymore to double check. That's beside the point though. The fact is, it looked like all these clubs were more interested in having an excuse for losing rather than fairness.

Juventus vs fucking alliance
If the pens were against anyone else, & our coach was asked to comment he'd say the same things. "This is football, it happens" I dont care if its Ranieri, Didi, Crapello or Lippi, of course they would never say "oh yes, absolutely, Inter were robbed & Zalayeta should be hung at dawn". We are rivals, they wont take our side. Be real.

OMG, you so right are!!! We need to destroy bad death star!

    They were asked their opinion on the matter, as they are a million times a week, & they gave it. Of course they would not want players banned for diving, these men coach Totti, Inzaghi, Gila & Ibra for goodness sake, they'd have no strikers. Adriano was banned for diving & Mancio said it was wrong, so he continues that belief regarding another teams player.

    I know we've been victimised in many ways, the Napoli ref being one, but the opinion of other teams coaches is not a conspiracy, its football.

    I think it might have more to do with the fact that you can see he was pushed & that he didnt appeal for a pen. He's never gonna tell the ref not to give it is he? For Napoli? At home to Juve? He'd never get out of there alive.

    Don't use the push excuse. If that was true the ref wouldn't have been banned. They revoked it because they are spineless. Simple as that
