It's a letter some guys of the 1897 forum want to send to Borrelli and to give it more relevance they are collecting signatures and have reached around 2000 of them.
If you agree with what it's written, please post your name, your surname and the country where you live. If you want you can add you birth date and the name of the city where you live.
Please do it within the next 24 hours and, if you want, ask some other Juventini to sign this.
Thanks

Dear Mr. Borrelli,
I'm turning to you because you are the one who will propose penalties for clubs involved in a scandal that has shocked the Italian football world. One of the Italian newspapers (La Gazzetta Dello Sport) has called the scandal "Moggiopoli" (instead of "Calciopoli") - evidently according to the newspaper the rest of clubs is clear.
As mentioned earlier I'm turning to you as to the only person that a Juve fan can turn to in this difficult moment. A person above any suspicions who had been elected to lead the calcio (Guido Rossi) has brought himself to our attention at the very beginning of his term and showed his impartiality by criticizing Capello who had made a conjecture that Juventus would not be demoted. Rossi said: "He's a great coach but
talking rubbish". Good to know. Then he reminded us that "he is an interista and thus not involved in the scandal". What is more, he has publicly reprimanded Cannavaro for saying what everyone knows and what was repeated the next day (obviously without any reprimand) by Angello Peruzzi. It was football, not only Juventus, said Cannavaro. And that's true.
Everyone knew it. Small clubs seeked support among big clubs. The latter wanted to rule. Moggi supported Galliani. Sensi supported nobody because he wanted to be elected himself. One wonders why. Some of them succeeded. I'm talking here about Juve and Milan. The others didn't succeed so they tried to contact friendly referees directly (Nucini is a friend of Inter president Facchetti) or make appointments with one of the persons responsible for assigning referees to gain information on referees assigned to their matches. I'm talking here about a club Guido Rossi is a fan of, a club that supposedly has nothing to do with the scandal (Moggiopoli, not Calciopoli).
Who should I turn to?
To Juventus? No. Unfortunatelly the club is without officials at the moment. Noone says anything, noone explains anything. Descendants of the Agnelli family are young, the whole board of directors has been disbanded.
To our ultras? No because we are the Juve. No broken show windows, no violence, no riots. There are many of us but we are dotted about all over Italy. Perhaps we will be forced to organize a protest on streets but only as a last resort because it's not really for us.
So to whom? To television, newspapers? Yes, that's a good idea. To Berlusconi's television, to our rival. Or to La Gazzetta Dello Sport, although Meani (rossoneri's official) told one of their journalists to give a referee a specific grade (as Meani bragged to the referee).
So who should we turn to in order to get a fair verdict? Not amnesty, not even decrease, let alone pardon of penalty. Only justice. If demotion is necessary, so be it.
But not because La Gazzetta Delle Sport is demanding that.
Not because some of Gazzetta's journalists have already pronounced a verdict.
Not because television didn't show a single, I repeat, a single broadcast without condemning Juve to demotion (which is necessary according to them).
Not because the Consumers Association are demanding demotion or "clients will not understand".
Things came to such a point, Mr. Borrelli.
Please be the one who will propose the penalty we deserve.
Please judge whether there were illegal activities or horrible attempts (instructing Baldas in "Biscardi's trial"? Journalists' opinion? Disqualification of mediocre players for matches against Juve?) to subordinate the football world. Or maybe Juventus just defended themselves against much greater power.
Please judge whether our biggest rivals: Milan, Milan of the then Prime Minister (Berlusconi), of the Lega Calcio president (Galliani), Milan a friend of the then FIGC president (Carraro), Milan of three TV stations, Milan whose official has instructed a referee assistant in a phone call when he should raise his flag, whether that Milan was a victim of Moggi and deserves a lesser penalty. This is what La Gazzetta Delle Sport says. This is what they say in TV. That's right, Moggiopoli. Not Calciopoli.
The penalties will be proposed by you.
Not Verdelli.
Not Mentana (a journalist from Canale 5's show "Matrix").
Not Ruggiero Palombo (a journalist of La Gazzetta Dello Sport).
Not Di Pietro, your old friend who has stated that investigation was not necessary.
There is a crime, Juve must be punished. What about the other clubs? We will see, maybe only points deduction.
Everyone says so. We can't compare Juve to Milan. I agree. These two clubs cannot be compared.
We don't have a president of Lega Calcio. We don't have three TV stations which would defends us, avoiding unfavourable information and attacking our rival all day long.
No. You will propose the penalties, I hope that they will be fair and that you will take everything into consideration. Also the fact that this system was accepted by everyone. Even by everlasting enemies, for example Roma as intercepted calls prove that their only aim was help to get more money from TV rights and transfers. Also those presidents who don't have the courage to speak since the scandal came out. Maybe two or three have spoken. The others are silent. They knew about everything and did alike to the best of their abilities.
The last thing: Moggi used his power also in GEA's interest. GEA is not Juve. On the contrary. It might have happened that in order to get on of GEA's players we got Baiocco while others for similar money got Kaka. GEA didn't help us, on the contrary.
I have faith in you that you will take all these things into consideration, more than verdicts given by La Gazzetta Dello Sport, "Matrix", Di Pietro or the Consumers Association, and by all the fans that have hated us... since always, not since a month.
We want justice, Mr. Borrelli. Not a scapegoat. We want serious, fair penalties for people responsible for this scandal. For everyone, without exception. Let the fans of other clubs go out to streets if you decide differently to what they want. As a result, we aks you to call this scandal as it should be really called: Calciopoli, not Moggiopoli.
