[Serie A] JUVENTUS 3-0 Palermo (20-Nov-2011) (37 Viewers)

If I was the coach in this situation I would have pulled my players off the pitch. Concede a 3-0 defeat and make a public stand against this ROBBERY.

I stand with my opinion that Italian Refs are by far the "worst" in the game period. Our game that year against Cagliari, Inter's 4 players offside goal that was allowed, many many penalties and calls that were given in favour of Milan.

I think it would be far better for Italians to hire Refs from other Countries, i really think they should try that.....

You also would have been sacked immediately.

I've always said Italian refs are the shittest in Europe. Everyone says the English a worse, I don't buy it.

It is not the coaches that can take such decisions, it is the owner of the club.

I think it depends from team to team.

I remember, what is Lille(?) almost pulling out their players against Manchester United, but decided to stay on.

I've always wondered:

If it was the last game of the season and say, we have 2nd place secured (can't finish anywhere else) and we play Siena in the last game, who need 3 points to stay up, if we lost the game intentionally, that would be match fixing. But if we forfeited and gave them a 3-0 win, it wouldn't. Why don't teams use that?

 

[Fake Melo]

We would probably get investigated for forfeiting the match. I don't think you "just can" forfeit the match. + our reputation would go to hell.

Didn't Milan get in serious trouble for forfeiting a game?

Tell them you "refuse to play under these conditions" (whatever conditions they are).

Never heard of tha.

You could get punished with unsporting conduct and have minus points, ending up losing your 2nd spot

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

So why is there the option to forfeit?

I'm pretty sure Galliani got mad at half time and forfeited some European match (pre 2005). Can't remember the details though.

Can't find it on google.

I think it's only an option under certain circumstances. You better have a good reason.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

The weather was bad.
