QUOTE Juventus Win Scudetto...Of The Fans The 'Gazzetta dello Sport' reported the results of a recent survey in Italian football where it emerged that the Bianconeri are the most followed team in the peninsula. Not even the demotion to Serie B football pushed the Old Lady's fans away, as according to the latest survey about fans, which has been reported by the 'Gazzetta dello Sport', the Juve supporters have 17.4% of the Italian population siding with them. In second place we find Milan with 12.4% and then Inter with 11%. The rest of the teams are far away, with Napoli finishing in fourth place but with just a bit more than half of the Nerazzurri fans. According to this survey, Inter has the highest number of fans between the ages of 45 and 54 years, probably due to the 'Grande Inter' of the 1960s. On the other hand, Milan has the highest number of young fans, under the 24 years of age, due to the triumphs of the Rossoneri in the past 20 years (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/king.gif) One curious fact is that the team which has been most abandoned by its supporters is Inter, which is probably due to the club failing to win a lot in the past 20 years (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

QUOTE (kurtsimonw @ Jul 16 2007, 04:00 PM) If the majority of young people sypport Milan for success, same with older people and Inter. That's just wrong! What do you support Milan for!?? Most of us (here) are under 24 and we support Milan cause we grew up watching the Rossoneri play amazing football and win! I guess that applies for you too... Unless you grew up loving the team of your town / area you pick the team that you like the most... at least that's how I see it and that's what I did... QUOTE (kurtsimonw @ Jul 16 2007, 04:00 PM) Does that mean Juevntus are the only team with real fans? I say winning the league every two years is quite a feat... it's not like their fans have not tasted success.

QUOTE (kurtsimonw @ Jul 16 2007, 04:24 PM) I didn't directly support them because they were successful, but when I started watching none-English football, Milan had alot of payers that I'd heard of (Probably through success). It's only normal...

QUOTE (kurtsimonw @ Jul 16 2007, 04:40 PM) I suppose as long as you don't abandon them once you start support them it's fine. We aren't United 'fans' after all! Yes real admirers and supporters! For the rest I do not give a damn...

The Juve players have a very curious method for renegotiating their contracts. First there was Trezeguet with his hand gesture and tantrum. Then there was Nedved with his accusation of the management not respecting him.
Now there's Chiellini, who went on a major rant about the club not respecting players who stayed with the club when they were in Serie B, how he wants to feel he's 'important' and that if the club doesn't want to show respect (presumably by guaranteeing a startind spot), he'd be happy to go to Liverpool. LIVERPOOL.
Ranieri has called Chiellini's outburst childish, but...you've got to wonder wtf is going on in Turin with three quality players having serious issues with the management. Are the Agnelli family THAT tight-fisted?

I miss Gianni Agnelli. I always thought of him as a Serie A equivalent of Vito Corleone - the benevolent dictator sort who took care of his family. It's unfortunate for Juve if they really are managing to alienate all these players and it isn't just a ploy by players/agents for more money.
