Hi guys ,

i'm from Kuwait , it's in the middle east btw Iraq & Saudi Arabia ( KSA ) , just in case if u don't know its location .. :D

i'm interrested to know about JUVENTUS POPULARITY in your countries or the place u're livin in at the moment ,

in Kuwait , there are many people support JUVE , but among other teams , unfortunately the majority supports real madrid .. :confused: !

in the middle east , i guess Saudi Arabia has the greatest number of JUVE supporters !

recently , JUVE STORE was opened in Riyadh , the capital of KSA !

talking about the centre or the capital of JUVE fans in arabic countries , Libya is undoubtly on the top , people there always say that 90 % of population support the old lady , :bigscarf:

i know that countries like POLAND and eastern Europe in general have many supportes , and maybe JUVENTUS is the most popular team there !!

im from India, and the Premier League dominates here! not many people are a fan of theirs, but most football "fans" here are aware of Juve, mostly cos of the scandal, and some cos Juve's one of the biggest clubs!

In Sweden Juve are not as popular as the English big 4 + Barca and Real but we are more popular than Inter and Milan, I would say.
We do have the most devoted fans online though. There is one major website for football discussion named svenskafans.com where there are forums for every team from big leagues. There are daily statistics about activity in the forums and Juve are almost always on top even when we aren't playing a game and other teams are. Going down to Serie B and losing Zlatan killed a lot of the glory hunters, which is a good thing.

What, has it already been a whole month since we've been asked to answer this question? :pado:

Where I live, Juve is confused with ... well ... NFL referees or Foot Locker employees. Most nobody has heard of them. And most who might think they recognize the name presume their some Argentinian club. At least the Latino homies in the hood know what's up with Juve, however.

The EPL gets crammed down our throats like George Bush tries to cram down American democracy down the world's throats. Naturally, I spend a lot of time vomiting in response to all this cramming. :inter:

We are exposed to a barrage of idiotic sports announcers who -- when they're not dismissing football as a joke -- tell us that there is no football beyond England. It's really a bit of brainwashing when we have American morons on TV telling us how the FA Cup is the most prestigious trophy in all of football.

Serie A has a miniscule following in the U.S., but I've encountered a lot more fans of Milan and even Inter and maybe Roma than Juve. However, among the kitchen staff of Italian restaurants in America, Juve reigns supreme. Juve is the Iron Chef of football teams among them.

Not many people here follow serie A. Most of the people are into the premier league, but juve has its fans and very dedicated ones, not glory hunters.

very big following here in the UAE, especially for Alessandro Del Piero...but many are gloryhunters I'm afraid...starting to support Milan and Inter a lot more these days, but I think Juve is still number 1 here

Its either Real or Barca here, Juve are the most popular italian team though. Libya is another story though, i think i can safely say that more than half the people who follow football there support Juve.

Among the guys from my generation and among the folks in their 30's, Juve is the most popular football team in this part of Croatia, by far. Three players from the most popular team of south Croatia, Hajduk, played for Juve (Jarni, Boksic, Tudor).
In whole Croatia i think Milan are more popular.

The younger guys prefer EPL, i believe.

As a result of latest poll in one of daily newspapers in Iran,Juventus is the second-popular foreign football club in here
We have a official fan site in persian : www.juventus.ir
there's also a forum (which by the way I'm one of the moderators)
Without doubt Juventus is popular widely in Iran.
Every month we have meetings held in Tehran(capital city) and luckily there are guests and members from other cities too.:hug:

There are religious and political reasons for folk in Ireland to support Celtic.

You will find that the Catholics follow Celtic, to varying extents, and the Protestants follow follow Rangers.

In Belgium, EPL gets the lion share of foreign football. Italian football still gets some coverage because of massive amounts of Italian immigrants, so there is room for for Juve fanclubs and whatnot.

There's even an Ultra group travelling from Belgium for about every home match: http://www.bruxellesbianconera.com

I don't know more than 10 Juve supporters here. Italian football in general isn't popular. The Calcio followers however, tend to be the more logical and serious supporters than your average Man U, Barca, Arse fan.

Living in the U.S. I have only met one other Juve-fan who was my english teacher. And he wasn't really a big fan, but he did go to a juve game 15 years ago. There are a surprisingly large amount of semi-footie fans in my area but they all love the EPL and Barca and don't know shit about football, it's really lame. Oh and theres a major inter fan at my school yet he moved here from Italy a few years back so he isn't really American.
