It's always the same garbage. That list Capitano posted. We're plus 1 in penalties over the last 6 seasons, while probably having the most combined points over that same period. Generally, when a team is the top team in a league they receive quite a few more penalties than are given against as they control the match and have more possession in and around the opposing teams box. Somehow we buck that trend, being plus 1 over 6 seasons, while somehow mediocre team like Roma is plus 22 over that same period. Talk about ridiculous. For them to even suggest that we are favoured in the face of their 51 penalties taken, to our 26 over the same period, is so beyond ridiculous. It seems to me, referee favouritism is solely in the hands of AC Milan and AS Roma, two disgusting clubs.
If it makes these fuckers burn more, I hope it happens to us every time we need a goal. Fuck them all. The penalty stats speak for themselves, Milan and Roma get the most gifts.
Nicchi, AIA's President (referees Association) released the following interview yesterday:
Nicchi defended Rocchi on the handling of Juve-Roma "refereeing it has been and always be a tough job; but this week wheining is not good for football. Juve-Roma was managed ok and this has been confirmed by the statements we got from abroad, where nothing unusual was registered.
Infact, according to both FIFA and UEFA, the controversial episodes are considered simply controversial, which is proven by the fact that after a week of slow motion people still have different views on the matter.
"The referees still bear the Calciopoli cross, but AIA is a whole new organisation and we carry nothing from that period. The referees always want to perform well but it's also up to the other professionals involved to be serious. We have asked spoiled millionaires to behave properly but every weekend we see exaclty the opposite: 18 red cards in Serie A so far and a stunning 50 in 8 games of Serie B.
Slow motion? Please go ahead but don't cry if football turns into another playstation game. We have accepted FIGC input to use technology, which we somehow favour; but this is quite different from slow motion as it is something very different."

Moggi: 'Roma intimidate refs'
Luciano Moggi claims Roma are returning to a “pre-Calciopoli tactic: tell referees it’s best to go against Juventus to avoid criticism.”
The former director general was the main figure in the 2006 Calciopoli scandal, which saw Juve demoted to Serie B and stripped of two Scudetti.
He is now a pundit and wrote for newspaper Libero after the latest controversy over Juve’s 3-2 win against Roma.
“Morgan De Sanctis added to Francesco Totti’s remarks on Juve-Roma, so not even President Pallotta’s appeal for calm was heeded.
“That makes me think the tactic used in the pre-Calciopoli years is still the right one for them: tell referees in case of doubt it’s best to go against Juventus to avoid criticism. Basically, intimidate them.
“The statistics are at the disposal of anyone who wants to consult them. From 1998 to 2006 the team with the most penalties in favour was Milan with 70, second Roma on 57, Lazio 55, Napoli 54 and together with 53 spot-kicks were Inter and Juventus.
“The penalties against: again Milan on top with 25, followed by Juventus 26, Lazio 30, Inter, Roma and Napoli 39.”
Moggi was caught in intercepted telephone conversations urging the authorities to choose certain referees for specific games and complaining about decisions that had gone against Juventus.
Contrary to popular belief, Juventus were never charged with match-fixing, but only with attempting to influence the refereeing designator and therefore the officials as a whole.
