this is all true and i agree with everyone, but remember that serie a, b, c... are all the same at the end of the day -----> they are businessess and the bottom line for a business is its bottom line. obviously serie a is the breadwinner of italian football but as the season goes on more and more fans will shy away from serie a because juve is no longer coming to their city to play their team. it was a foolish decision to relegate us because everyone wants to see us kick their teams ass and people will pay high prices just to see the black and white on the pitch. its all about the paper.
De Canio: "Senza la Juve non è A"
Gigi De Canio sta guardando il calcio da spettatore. Attualmente è senza squadra, ma il calcio è sempre il suo mestiere e dunque segue con grande attenzione queste prime giornate di campionato.
"Le squadre che mi hanno convinto di più sono il Milan e il Palermo - ha detto De Canio ai microfoni di Sportal.fm -. I rossoneri, pur avendo dovuto cambiare in corsa la preparazione, stanno giocando bene e dimostrano di avere la giusta mentalità per reagire anche alla penalizzazione. Cosa che, al contrario, non è riuscita alla Fiorentina. Il Palermo, invece, potrebbe essere la vera sorpresa di questa stagione".
Poi De Canio affronta anche il tema di calciopoli e la successione di Guido Rossi alla Figc: "Bisogna dire la verità: il campionato italiano, senza la Juventus in serie A, è privo di interesse. Poi il vero protagonista è il calcio e quindi tutto passa, ma l'assenza dei bianconeri è davvero pesante. Chi mi piacerebbe vedere come presidente della Figc? L'uomo giusto è Rivera".

I read that in channel4.com and I was like, well what'd people think?
The Italian Federation was hassled by Rossi, who left as soon as mission was accomplished by first ensuring the league starts without Juve.
The final act is to see Inter lift the Scudetto, but as we will see tonight, it aint gonna happen.
Like I said before, Serie B will in some ways outclass Serie A, PURELY becuase Juventus was demoted.

And TV shows about calcio on tv (controcampo, domenica sportiva and such) are losing between 25% and 30% viewers and rumors say that newspapers are not doing that well either. Juventini (consciously or not) have just stopped giving them their money.
So they have started to invite Juventini almost everywhere (at the moment we have Balzaretti on controcampo), Moggi works as opinionist in newspapers, they even have started lighten the "humor" against us in the commercials on tv (yeah, you read right, in Italy you aren't spared by this s.it not even in the annoying commercials on Tv and radio).
Well, people, you can as well forget our money because I, for one, will meticulously avoid everything yours or connected to you.

Serie A crowds fall to 40-year low
ROME (AFP) - Italy may well be world champions, but football fans are staying away from Serie A matches in their droves.
After 10 matches this season, the average attendance of a top flight game has fallen to 19,361 - its lowest figure for 40 years, the La Repubblica newspaper has reported.
The paper also said that Serie A crowds are down by 10,000 compared to figures over the same 10-game period a decade ago.
The slump in gates could be put down to several factors: television, high ticket prices, poor stadium facilities and hooliganism.
The Italian match-fixing scandal - which involves five Italian clubs and resulted in the relegation of Juventus - may have also left fans disillusioned.
Italy's deputy Sports Minister Giovanni Lolli said the government were extremely concerned by the alarming drop in attendances.
"We are working on an extensive project to radically change the situation," he told La Repubblica.
