Anyway.... Seven!! oh Seven!!! Are you gonna come back and answer my question???

Seriously, Im interested in your answer and a proper explanation of why Burke shouldnt be here.... Im sure if you convince us of your point we can jus hack his account and get rid of him, or something else to remove him if he is indeed a waste of space

A question : What have you contributed and what make your contribution more worthwhile than Burkes??




Ps. That was a serious question btw, not a dig at you
Well I have contributed to discussion over our team, Juventus FC. I know that not many agree with my opinion, but that's exactly why I am a valuable member IMO. People that agree with everything are useless.

Burke on the other hand has never been in a serious discussion and has done some serious name calling in the past. I don't see why posters like Genesio or whatever his name was are banned and Burke is still here. What has Burke got to offer?

Don't lie.


You're gay.
Very smart, Burke

Dude, you have problems.
After he obviously put words in my mouth.

The crowd is dumb, and so are you.
Very strong argument.





Now is this a guy who contributes a lot to this forum?

Can you point me too one of your contributions... i personally have not seen you involved in an actual debate or put forward something I didnt know or didnt think of... please show me


To be honest, that wasnt much of an argument against burke.
Can you not add more?

Its fairly obvious to anyone with an ounce of common sense why the likes of Genesio was banned...




Forums... Its all about the Tone!!

Actually it's not. Whereas Genesio was a pure moron, Burke is someone who should know better. So IMO what Burke is doing is far worse.

I doubt that, Andy. Serie A is a very slow paced competition and I doubt many Serie A clubs can play as fast as their English counterparts. I don't think one competition is better than the other, they just differ a lot. I think EPL is way more fun to look at anyway. Sure Serie A is nice when Juve and Milan play, but looking at Livorno playing Siena sure is boring. In EPL you get Norwich coming back from being 3 goals down. Pace makes games interesting and Serie A lacks pace.

The thing is though that at 23, most players that will ever reach world class level are already there. Or are at least almost there. Zlatan is nowhere near.

I don't think you've bashed Del Piero either, what bothers me is that the general consensus on this forum seems that it's cool to bash Del Piero. Hating Del Piero means you know something about the game, so it seems.

Beckham lacked in other areas of his games, but made up for those because his crossing was simply not of this universe. For Man U Beckham was a world class player, because they badly needed his crosses. He was needed for England as well. The reason he isn't a good player anymore is that he simply is not needed in a team like Real Madrid.

I still disagree though if you say Beckham hasn't got anything more to offer than his crosses. That's just the only thing he's really good at. He's decent in most other things. His dribbling for example isn't world class, but it still is alright.

A draw would be great. Although I doubt we will take something home from the Santiago Bernabeu. Against Udinese we were good as a team, but we still weren't creative and fast enough. Then again, Real hasn't impressed this season and I don't think there better as a team than Juventus.

Our main problem will probably be the fitness and shape of our main players. Especially Zlatan, Del Piero and Nedved will have to be great this game. I know most of you don't think Del Piero should even feature, but I believe that a good Del Piero will be crucial to defeat Real in the end.

I believe Zlatan was a disgrace against Udinese, but from what I have seen he has played some pretty good games this season as well. In Capello's way of playing he's an important player anyway. As for Nedved we will just have to wait and see how he returns from injury. But I don't believe that should be a problem.

Our defense was great against Udinese, but sloppy at times. The goal we got was avoidable and it's this sort of goals that are going to work against us in the end.

My prediction: Real Madrid 2-1 Juventus
With Zlatan scoring.
At least this are posts with an opinion. They're not degrading to anyone and they're about Juventus FC.

The fact is that I was involved in several discussions about Zlatan, Del Piero and Juventus in general and I put forward some arguments. You might not agree with me, but I did put forward arguments. Burke on the other didn't.

Whether i agree with what you have said or not means nothing... You are saying you contribute more than burke but havent backed that statement up

Im jus asking why you are a better contributor and why burke is evil.

As for his insults you yourself are involved in your fair share of that... so wheres the difference?

Seven, you have indeed cited some useful posts, but I think that Paul is just winding you up.
Oh, I know he is, but I actually want to prove a point here :). Anyway, I probably shouldn't have bothered.

The difference would be that my insults come in the heat of an argument, where Burke's insults are all over the place without any real reason. Andy insults people a lot as well, but he does so in an argument. To me that makes a big difference.

Give me 5 good posts of Burke.

Uhmmm... dunno if thats a valid point, as a good contributor ,should you lose your cool, should you not to be able to answer with your wisdom or wit?

I dont think your giving burke the right amount of credit there.... I see someone who knows exactly what hes posting and why hes doing it

Andy insults people a lot as well, but he does so in an argument. To me that makes a big difference.
But.. Andy's an arse:)

Give me 5 good posts of Burke.
See you lose a point there allready... your crumbling at the first hurdle...
You made a statement which I asked you to explain... It is down to you to supply the evidence , not me , Im the independant seeker of truth and holder of all wisdom, I am required to give nothing in this case... you the accuser must bring your case before my table:)

I'm surprised no one here on this thread has yet to mention the passing of the great Omar Sivori, who passed away nearly a year to the day of the passing of John Charles.


He was Maradona before Maradona existed. One of the greatest Argentinian players to ever step foot on a pitch.


Suffer no more, Sir Omar.
I've made a short dedication in the Team talk section this morning. What's even more sad is that I have the feeling that half the fans here had at best just heard his name.

A Maradona avant la lettre : he was exactly that. A short man with a huge head (earning him to be referred to as "cabezon") and a divine left foot capable of giving the most incredible trajectories to the ball (he was immediately nicknamed "el gran zurdo" in Argentina as a result). He arrived at Juve for a record fee at the time, and stole the number 10 shirt to Boniperti, who never pardoned him for this. He had the insolence to believe that because football is a game he was entitled to literally play with his opponent, like a torero toying with a bull. He refused to wear tibia protections, as if he wanted to send the following simple message to the Schnellinger, Burgnich, Rosato and to the many meanies of the era : "try me". Needless to say, many of those who did try bit the dust. Some did reach him though, and this cost him quite a few bad injuries. His adventure with Juve came to an abrupt end when Agnelli hired Heriberto Herrera as coach. Herrera believed in a revolutionary form of football where all 10 field players were expected to move and run constantly. Herrera's vision of football eventually paid dividend, but to Sivori it was blasphemy. Why should he run when Emoli was already doing all the running for him? So he left for Napoli, where he came very close to winning the clubs' first scudetto together with the other great italo-argentine of that era that was ex-Milan Altafini. Even if he did not succeed, he laid the foundations for his legendary compatriot who, 20 years later rewrote history under the Vesuvius.

First of all the thing would obviously be that I do not lose my cool, but that I want to insult someone who doesn't agree with me soon enough :).

I too see someone who knows what he's posting and that's exactly what it makes it even more annoying.

I already supplied the evidence, although I can understand it's funnier for you to ignore that part :).
