yeah it would be cool to see a German team other than Bayern doing well this time..... Borussia Dortmund I remember used to be very strong back in the 90's, don't know what happen. I'm rooting for PSV in the CL though....

Don't count on that

PSV can win the CL next season, it's their best team in the last 20 years.

yeah, those predictions were true.

Juventus, Lazio ans Fiorentina in Serie B with Juve with -30 points, Fiorentina -12 and Lazio -7. And Milan got droped from the CL but stays at Serie A with - 15 points.

And you're unoriginal.

This is pretty much a death sentence for Juve. At -30, and with a salary cap in Serie B, there's very VERY little chance they'll come back, and they could very well end up in Serie C.

They're not fucked, really. It's not like they can't find another club where they'll get paid a similar wage.

haha, true. If anything, the lifelong fans are the ones who are fucked, lol. Imagine...the great team your whole family has been following for generations, suddenly drops out of the map....pretty much. That's gotta be really hard on those people (if they are really devoted to their club of choice...)

If you truly support your club, you'd do it no matter what competition they're playing in, whether they're doing good or bad.

Thing is Juve can't even get a strong crowd to see their games even when they're winning the comp. Wonder how many people will hang around now that they're up shit creek?

Yeah, I wasn't thinking those fans would all of a sudden stop supporting their favorite club, I was thinking that it would be pretty disappointing for those fans, to go from being a Serie A club to being Serie B or C overnight. I don't expect them to just stop following their team because of that. Unless they're extremely casual fans.

But now that you mention how they currently struggle to gather a good number of people, it would be interesting indeed to see how many people stick around.
