Shirt offer is just the ticket
Wednesday 13 September, 2006
Juventus will allow 600 fans free entry into their Serie B clash with Vicenza – so long as the supporters are wearing the official club shirt.
The outfit will hand out the complimentary tickets in a bid to see their first home game of the season sold out.
“Did you buy an official Juventus shirt and you just can’t wait to wear it at the stadium? There could be no better occasion than Saturday’s match against Vicenza,” read a note on the club’s website.
“Juventus have launched a new initiative confirming the desire to be close to their supporters,” it continued.
“All those who will go to the stadium with the new shirt on Saturday will receive a free ticket for the east sector, where 600 places have been reserved for this purpose.”
Juventus are looking for mass support this season as they attempt to win their Serie A place back following demotion.
The Bianconeri started life in the Second Division last week with a disappointing 1-1 draw against 10-man Rimini.
However, there is good news for boss Didier Deschamps as he will now have David Trezeguet, Cristiano Zanetti and Jonathan Zebina back from injury.
Vicenza lost their first game of the season on Saturday when they were defeated 2-1 at home by promotion chasing Genoa.
