2005 STAT - NUMBER OF FANS IN ITALY:


Basically it says we have more fans than Inter (I doubt).

And looking only for the city: More Roma fans in Rome, more Torino fans in Turin and more Milan fans in Milan(o).

I believe in the 2nd part. The first... I dunno.

Yeah, it is one of the better logo's, it's not over-elaborate or boring.

Just right. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

You though it was the source of his godly power!?? (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)


Don't know. But it's on Milan's badge too as we were founded by an Englishman, Alfred Edwards. Maybe when those guys that left Milan to form Inter wanted to have something similar...

Juventus old and new: (IMG:http://content.answers.com/main/content/wp/en/3/3d/Old_Juventus_Logo_29283.jpg) (IMG:http://www.radiobremen.de/bremeneins/programm/_bild/juventus_turin.gif)

Inter old and new: (IMG:http://www.sportsposterwarehouse.com/warehouse/intermlogo99sl-1.jpg) (IMG:http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/8/8a/FC_Internazionale_logo.png/150px-FC_Internazionale_logo.png)

Inter just have it since this season. At least on the back... the Milano badge.

I found some stats on ESPN about Juventus' attendances over the last few years.

Juventus average attendance over the last few years:

2002/03: 40,253
2003/04: 34,873
2004/05: 26,883
2005/06: 25,993

Now I don't know the capacity of the Delle Alpe but is there any reason that Villa get more than Juventus on average over an entire season?

Especially considering they have more fans than anybody else.

Unless it's another case of Man United, where they have more fans in London than Manchester. So it's a travel thing (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Bad pics but you can see that red Milano cross in the middle.

We used to have the exact same badge as our logo in the first years of Milan's existence.


They have more fans everywhere else but in Torino. All in all there must five of them there!! (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Yup. Delle Alpi is a 70.000 capacity stadium but they don't have a big number of fans in Torino (city).
They've a lot of fans around Italy, not in "their" city. Torino FC have more fans than Juventus in the city.

Juventus' average attendance has dropped from 40,000 to 25,000 over a period of 3 years.

Which is a decline of 5,000 per year. So in theory, they will have 0 fans by the year 2012. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

No, those five I told you about before... they're really loyal! (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Milan yes. In our centenary Adidas made that "old kit" where you can see that: (IMG:http://www.shevchenko.com.ar/shevchenko1.jpg)

I dunno about Inter. If they used it.

PS: Obviously we're the true and first squad of Milan - city. Even in the fascist era Milan was known as Milano and Inter as Ambrosiana (from the Patron of Milano: St. Ambrose).

They're going to be the Birmingham City of Italian football.

The only spectators they get are the coaching staff and the substitutes.

And that's because they HAVE TO be there. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

I'm not too great on the history of Milan.. But weren't both Milan and Inter the same club, then they split to do with politics or something?

funny... adriano has 2 match ban because of diving LOL


though I fear for Pippo (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)


Adriano banned for diving!
Thursday 19 April, 2007
Inter ace Adriano has been suspended for two games after he was adjudged to have won a penalty against Roma by diving.

The Brazilian earned his side a controversial penalty in the 3-1 loss to the Giallorossi last night when he fell in the box, despite not being caught by goalkeeper Alexander Doni.

Although the Nerazzurri did level the game at the time with a Marco Materazzi spot-kick, it has come at a price.

The disciplinary commission viewed the incident today and have decided to punish the player for his simulation on video evidence grounds.

Inter may decide to appeal against the punishment in an effort to get it scrapped or cut by at least one game.

Meanwhile, the disciplinary panel have rescinded the red card handed to Chievo midfielder Paolo Sammarco.

The former Under-21 international was harshly dismissed in the 0-0 draw with Lazio yesterday after being head-butted by Valon Behrami.

Messina stopper Enrico Morello will have to sit out his side’s next three matches after he verbally abused the referee once he saw red on Wednesday evening.

Three-match ban: Morello (Messina)

Two-match ban: Adriano (Inter), D’Aversa (Messina)

One-match ban: Behrami (Lazio), Bellini (Atalanta), Zauri (Lazio), Portanova, Bertotto, Molinaro (Siena), Accardi, Quagliarella (Sampdoria), Mancini, Mexes, Pizarro (Roma), Ardito (Torino), Bianco (Cagliari), Foglio, Melara (Ascoli), Galante, Morrone (Livorno), Figo (Inter), Parisi, Pestrin (Messina)

+ADRIANO BAN: INTER TO LODGE URGENT APPEAL
Thursday, 19 April 2007 20:23:50

MILAN - F.C. Internazionale will lodge an urgent appeal over the two-match ban inflicted on Adriano by the Italian Football League's Disciplinary Commission.
