.....but not surprising

...and there goes the shuffle of players off of Juventus roster.

4 players left yesterday, Cannavaro and Emerson to Real Madrid and Zambrotta and Thurman to Barcelona, with more expected to leave all of the relegated clubs for the upcoming season

Juventus is back in Serie-A next year, but Fiorentina got -19 to start at A meaning that they will go down next season. Nice two season punishment.

And oh yeah, AC Milan surprisingly plays euro games all ready this season.....

 

[DeadPrez]

did that happen today because the link to the article you posted says that Juventus lost their appeal to get back into Serie A?


Your right about fiorentina, they should have just stayed down in serie B and then they would have easily advanced back up to serie A next year. Now they will probably be demoted down to Serie B next year because they start this season at such a disadvantage

What about the innocent teams that get F'd because of this appeal. 2 teams that were not going to be demoted to Serie B now go back down to make room for convicted cheaters Fiorintina and Lazio while Palermo gets kicked out of its first ever Champ league slot so Milan can have it back.

Juventus goes to serie-b this starting season and will very propably come back next year, that's how i ment it.

Inter Milan are champion of 2005, announced today.

You are right Flapjack, Lecce and Treviso will be relegated after all.
