Subject: Notts County

I believe that Juve thing to be at least partly true. Previously they played in pink, which they retained for the keeper at least as a nod to their pink past. The bit about the stripes that I heard, which seems less and less credible as I type, is that Juve were accidentally sent a consignment of shirts originally meant for Nottingham County and had no choice but to wear them.

and parlermo nicked their pink shirts! haha.

That's true I think, although I think County sent them the shirts directly, not that it was an accident.

"Meanwhile, Juventus owe their famous black-and-white striped kit to County. Years ago Juve used to play in pink shirts which faded with every wash. An English player at the club had a mate at County who sent him a decent set of black-and-white shirts to use instead. Juve have worn those colours ever since."


Good luck to them, County have been crap for ages. I would be quite happy to watch them race up the leagues and humble the big boys, i think it'd be hillarious.

From a personal perspective i doubt i could stomach this kind of thing happening at Forest. It wouldn't feel like we'd really achieved anything other than steamrollering our way through bankrolled by some moron with a small penis. I wouldn't want my club to be the plaything of some jumped up little rich git with nothing better to do.

Yeah. I suppose you must get bored of being beaten by derby eh? You want Notts to beat you too.

as a juventus supporter... thank you so much for the Black&White kit!!! ;-)

and we would like to thank Juventus for providing hours of entertainment by showing the world how to cheat your way to sooooo many titles.

ahah... great!
