Juve Fans Organise Street Revolt Against Leadership

Juevntus supporters on vecchiasignora.com are attempting to organise an open protest on the streets against the club’s management.

Cobolli Gigli e Jean-Claude Blanc

Current Juve President Giovanni Cobolli Gigli, managing director Jean-Claude Blanc, and sporting director Alessio Secco have never been popular with the club’s supporters since they replaced the old Triade of Roberto Bettega, Antonio Giraudo and Luciano Moggi, after the Calciopoli crisis in 2006.

Due to their opposition with how the club is being run, Juventus supporters on vecchiasignora.com are planning to organise an open protest on the streets against the club’s leadership.

The grievances are long but they include the failure to keep the promise of signing a top class centre midfielder this summer, as well as the general lack of investment during the past three summers.

Another bone of contention is how the players are always prepared to protect the club in the face of apparent injustices (possibly referring to the poor refereeing last season), while the management is not.

The fans believe it is time the club fights for what is rightfully theirs, and that is the 29 Scudetti they won on the field. This could be in reference to the Juventus management’s refusal to appeal the Calciopoli verdict in the civil courts.
