wormy Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 A quick Wiki: Juventus have played in black and white striped shirts, with white shorts, sometimes black shorts since 1903. Originally, they played in pink shirts with a black tie, but only because they had been sent the wrong shirts. The father of one of the players made the earliest shirts, but continual washing faded the colour so much that in 1903 the club sought to replace them.[42] Juventus asked one of their team members, Englishman John Savage, if he had any contacts in England who could supply new shirts in a color that would better withstand the elements. He had a friend who lived in Nottingham, who being a Notts County supporter, shipped out the black and white striped shirts to Turin.[42] Juve have worn the shirts ever since, considering the colors to be aggressive and powerful.[42] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Dad summed it up perfectly yesterday by saying " "When I hear Robbie Savage's voice I wish I was deaf" Robbie Savage: "Joey Barton is a disgusting person and should have been sent off, Gervinho should have stayed on the pitch and been given a penalty" "You know that Savage isn't that bad really..."

Gash Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Well, towards the end we did warm to him but Savage doesn't have any fans in my house, even my mum is disgusted by how "he dresses like the man from del monte" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 If it wasn't for looking like a girl and acting like a cunt, no one would know who Robbie Savage is. One of the shittest footballers i've ever seen play the game. He is a disgrace to the sport, i'm shocked we never bought him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
