it is unfair to punish usfor what we done in the past as we have already been punished and that was hard enough to take. the reffere wants to show italy that we are not cheatin by efectifly cheatin for the other team(s). i hope that from now on this stops. altho it isnt just the reffere in the last game against napoli (altho he was the worst) they have all been givin away silly freekicks/penalties against us.
They knew what happened...
Juve: It's a scandal! Sunday 28 October, 2007
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Juventus’ stars have dubbed the refereeing decisions in their 3-1 defeat at Napoli as “a scandal.”
The Bianconeri were defeated at the Stadio San Paolo last night after Maurizio Domizzi converted two extremely controversial penalties.
The first appeared to be a clean Giorgio Chiellini tackle on Ezequiel Lavezzi, while in the second incident Marcelo Zalayeta visibly dived over Gianluigi Buffon.
The club has ordered its players not to speak to the Press in order to avoid further inflaming the controversy, but a few comments did sneak out after the match.
“When these things happen, it is quite simply a scandal,” noted David Trezeguet as he left the arena.
“It’s absolutely scandalous,” added defender Nicola Legrottaglie and creative midfielder Raffaele Palladino.
Buffon was clearly furious with the decision – and the booking he earned because of that 'foul’ on former teammate Zalayeta. “We are not allowed to talk about it,” he told the media as he stormed off.
Vincenzo Iaquinta came on as a late substitute and tried to be a little more diplomatic about the performance of referee Mauro Bergonzi.
“I will not comment on the penalties, I did not see them. Now we have to focus on the next game and get right back on track.”
Juve found an unlikely ally in Napoli President Aurelio De Laurentiis, who praised his team but also admitted there had been mistakes.
“Those incidents are not our problem, but they are a problem for the Federation that hopefully will one day decide to use slow-motion replays on the field to make more accurate decisions. Then we’ll end it once and for all with this farce that only suits the media,” said the movie mogul.
“This Napoli side can finish in the top 10. It is still under construction and has to improve with some additions later on. I think we can evaluate the real Napoli next year.”

One dubious penalty for us against a team we would have beaten anyway, and we'll be labelled as cheaters and be the enemy of the state again.
And that's something that may happen as early as Wednesday. That's how they will "prove" that they're not against Juve.
I can't sleep because of this bullshit
