And their inclusion of Spurs, a club who have won SFA in their history, was the ultimate insult to illustrious clubs all over Europe.Completely agree.They have exposed themselves for the greedy, self serving ****** they are and have shown the rest of football they don’t give a fuck about them.

Juventus attract insane levels of support in southern Italy for some reason, but surprisingly less of it around TurinThe Stadio Delle Alpi (dump that it was) held 67k and was hardly ever more than half full. When they rebuilt it they reduced the capacity to 42 or so (I think).If they played their home games in a 67k stadium somewhere like Bari, for example, they'd probably fill it week in, week out.The same people I suspect who vote for Salvini in Calabria.How are they less successful? In terms of European Cups and Champions League, yes. But they've won Serie A 36 times compared to 18 a piece for Inter and Milan.

I think the delle Alpi is still going to rack and ruin.
What about viewing figures for the current CL or Europa cup games?Isn’t that going to be a better comparison?

Looks like Boris is going to war on this one, he, of course, will realise that virtually the whole nation is against this move. I really don't get it, if Villas not playing the most i watch is edited editions of other matches, I am hard pressed to bother watching England games.
