Are Juve in breach of their obligations?

What is the agreement in place between Beijing, Serie A and the clubs?

I assume anyone having a go at Lotito knows these things.
Juventus as a Scudetto winner have a right to play at home according to regulations...

"Come impone il regolamento, la Juventus, in quanto vincitrice dello Scudetto, avrebbe il diritto di disputare in casa propria la finale di Supercoppa italiana, ma ora si manifesta il concreto rischio che debba giocarla in casa della sfidante. E' lo scenario prospettato stamane da "La Gazzetta dello Sport", che sottolinea come siano in calo le quotazioni dell'unica pista straniera rimasta aperta. Oggi alle 20, infatti, scade il termine entro cui bisogna dare una risposta all’offerta formulata dagli organizzatori per far disputare la Supercoppa a Toronto. Ma c’è scetticismo in casa Lega perché il compenso (1,5 milioni) è troppo basso - si legge sulla rosea -. La Lazio sperava che la Juve, oppostasi alla trasferta di Pechino e già in tournée in Nord America, vi rinunciasse facendo incassare ai biancocelesti la stessa somma che garantivano i cinesi. Ma non pare esserci accordo, tanto che prende sempre più corpo l’alternativa: giocare a Roma, sperando così di ottimizzare gli incassi."

I assumed Juve had some sort of basis for not immediately agreeing to play in Beijing - I just didn't know exactly what that was.

I was also semi-assuming that Lotitio was just chancing his arm on the off chance of sneaking a few quid extra out of the whole thing.

Juve respond: "Offensive and liar." http://www.tuttosport.com/calcio/se...uve+risponde+a+Lotito:+«Offensivo+e+bugiardo»
Ever since winning the Coppa Italia on 26 May, Italian Football Federation member of the board and President of S.S. Lazio, Claudio Lotito, has begun to release statements that have become progressively more offensive, unacceptable and often untrue. He is evidently taking no notice of the trophy victory that earned S.S. Lazio the right to contest the Italian Super Cup, but is instead focusing on the monetary sum he thinks the club entitled to.

Juventus Football Club has always respected the regulations and decisions of the Lega Calcio, as shown most recently by the letter sent on 8 March 2013 which explained that the club would be unable to contest the Italian Super Cup abroad. In the following Assembly meetings, the Super Cup was often one of the main topics on the agenda but it was never discussed, least of all was any decision ever reached on the matter. For months, the Lega Calcio management ignored Juventus’ aforementioned stance on the matter and for some days they have been tolerating Lotito’s words and behaviour which are both unacceptable to the life of the association and also harmful to Juventus.

What a surprise that this farce of a situation is occurring, the FIGC has to be the most incompetent of all the governing bodies in the top level of European football.

These idiots couldn't organise a shag in a brothel. And their typical anti-Juve bias creeps through with every (non) decision they make.

TV cameras on players' chests?
By Football Italia staff

AIC President Damiano Tommasi confirms TV companies are testing miniature cameras on players’ shirts.

The experiment is planned by Sky Sport Italia and could eventually allow spectators to have a chest-eye view of the game.

“This idea of a miniature camera on the players’ shirts could bring fans the sensation of being increasingly inside the match,” said Players’ Association chief Tommasi.

“It is something I have heard about and I know they are evaluating whether it is possible to achieve, but there is a problem of reception.

“Besides, I also think we’d need to consider how this fits in with the rules of the game.”

If the camera were to include a microphone, it could also prove decisive in disciplinary matters.

The media would have a field day, with all the cursing from bad passes, and how they can make up story's about hatred among players

Fuck no. Isnt this actually infringement of their privacy somewhat ?

City did a video of players wearing Go-Pros on the training pitch when they came to the US. I think I posted it here somewhere. Looked pretty sick. I'd like to see the replay for goals/passes from the players' point of view.
