we must make differnce between the club and it´s personal...

Moggi was the d.g. of Juventus FC. Moggi WAS Juventus.
Maresca said:
have to disagree, moggi is not juventus. Juventus is much bigger than a person, juve is bigger that all it´s players. juve is more that 100 years of tradition. Moggi will be a black point in the history of juve.
What is a club made up of, if not its personnel? Juve has a tradition, that the club has turned its back on. Juve’s tradition was one of Italian talent, developed locally. It was also good sportsmanship, and putting the game before profit. That’s not Juve today.

Done and done. BTW, it's Barçelona.

Great.
So let me know when you'll quit belonging to your country when you discover that your leader - for instance - is corrupted.
Or is it prohibited for some people to be corrupted?
I don't belong to a country, I belong to myself. I will quit supporting a government or team when it turns it's back on its principles and decent conduct.
TheOldLady said:
I don't blame you, who wouldn't support his "hometown club" over a club he pretended to belong to, especially when that hometown club admins and managers are angels!!
See you either next year or couple of years when juve win a CL title.
I've supported Barçelona since I was a kid, and I’ve always routed for them when they’re not playing Juve. Besides, Spain is a superior league.

wow...if you really paid attention you would have seen that snoop and I havent been the best of friends (although all has been forgotten on my end)
maybe its all the marijuana you smoke...it fucks with your brain, dont you know ??
whatever you think Ian........
That doesn't change the fact that the rest of you (excluding Snoop, my bad) are absurd. And marijuana may “fuck with my brain”, but not as much as your narcissism.
Vinman said:
let me also add that it would take the total and utter destruction of Juventus FC for me to ever follow another team. I would follow Juve even if they were sent down to Serie D (although it would be hard to see matches on TV)
we dont need anymore fair weathered fans around here, so, as Arnold would say "hasta la vista, baby !!"
If it makes you feel better to call me a fair weather fan, then I guess I am, though that doesn’t make sense. While I’ve supported this club, it’s never won a European Cup, and for some years, no trophies were won. I am leaving after winning two titles in a row? I’ve explained my reasons for leaving, but I didn’t support Juve because they win trophies…
Sergio said:
Ian, I really don't know what to say here.
You and I, especially, have ALWAYS gotten along very well. You've always had my back through some of the more difficult times I had on this forum, and I'll never forget that. I hope that you would have felt the same towards me.
Sergio, I always liked you, and you’ve always been a great guy to me. But, your collusion with Incubo and the rest is a sad footnote, I hadn’t really involved myself in this forum for some time, mostly because of that clique.
Sergio said:
Now, that being said, as far as me being in this so-called "elitist" club that you talk about, when had that ever stopped me from being respctful to other people on this forum?? You can probably count the instances on one hand, with plenty of fingers to spare. So to be honest, you "lost" a lot of respect for me?? Quite honestly, I don't care either way.
I’ve seen your posse gang up on people enough times, to know what I’m talking about. You guys act like you are the best posters on the forum, but all you do is post mindless drivel in Incubo’s thread, and intimidate other posters in the rest of the forum.
Sergio said:
There are certain people that I talk to and certain people that I don't, and the ones that I don't talk to has nothing to do with personality conflicts, differences of opinion, or a general dislike. It has EVERYTHING to do with the fact that there are people on this forum I consider my friends. In case you've forgotten, a forum allows you to speak to whomever you like, whenever you like. Just because you're in a global community doesn't mean that you have to talk to everyone in it.
That’s exactly what I’m talking about. You only talk to those you deem worthy. That’s elitism, in my book. It’s not like I hate you for it, I just wish you guys would stop, for the sake of the community. Just because I’m not going to be here anymore doesn’t mean I want this place to suck.
Sergio said:
Seriously, get over yourself. "Elitist", My Ass. Ask anyone around here that I communicate with, and they will unequivocably tell youthat I'm one of the most considerate and respectful people here.
Exactly. Anyone you communicate with…
Sergio said:
Whatever, you're gone now. If you read this, fine. If not, I could honestly care less
I guess that’s why you wrote it? Seriously, I still think you’re a great guy and you’ve always been friendly to me, I just had to say my peace.
The Pado said:
Ian, you and I have never really gotten on, but I suppose it's because I don't smoke pot and you don't fap shoes. j/k. Anyway, you really did give a lot of positives to our community and wish you the best.
I never really thought of you as da Juve anyway so don't sweat the "Glory Hunter" tag. I'm just glad you picked Barca rather than following Edwin VdS to Manchester United.
Good luck.
Thanks man, but Barça picked me.
Matteo.. said:
You completely missed the point.
In fact, every Juventino should think about what Ian said.
Torkel said:
Thanks for being here, Ian, I've enjoyed your presence here a lot. You always had a lot of football insight, while being an interesting and nice guy in non-football topics. One of the greats.
Fliakis said:
i sencond that.

mikhail said:
Well said.
I'm sorry to see you go Ian. You're an interesting guy to know, even if only a little. Good luck.

swag said:
FWIW, I want to thank Ian for his contributions here. He's been a great poster over the years and has added a lot here.
Jeeks said:
Peace. I never got to know you well but I know that you have a good taste in music and a great taste in stuffing Rizlas.
Take care.
Erik said:
Sorry to lose you Ian
Martin said:
Ian is one of the legends of this forum. I'm not around much myself these days, but I've barely seen you the past year or so, Ian. It's always nice to see you back here. So it's sad that you're leaving.
If you're ever in Utrecht, let me know.
Espectro said:
its always sad to see an "old member" leaving, thanks for everything Ian and take care...
Thanks very much, all of you.
