I'd love for someone more knowledgeable than me in Serie A history (cough, brehme) to compile a chronological list of all the shit juve has done through the years, similar to his post in the Inter - Juventus thread but expanded upon, including more recent stuff like Calciopoli, the '98 game, Muntari's '12 disallowed goal etc.
When was the last "real" Scudetto that Juventus won?
Without sabotaging your main city rivals in the 1950s who were in a crisis due to the Superga incidents.
Without Agnelli as the FIGC chairman in the late 50s and early 60s.
Without cheating and threatening other clubs to give you their best players in the 70s instead of selling them elsewhere (Gianni Rivera incidents in 1972, stealing Dino Zoff from Napoli, Gaetano Scirea and Antonio Cabrini from Atalanta, Marco Tardelli from Como and so on... something that Moggi continued in the early 2000s)
Without stealing trophies from smaller clubs in the 80s (Gol di Turone, the Fiorentina debacle etc).
Without juicing up drugs, controlling referees and threatening (opposition) players in the 90s and early 2000s.
Without controlling the FIGC, collaborating with the state so that no one else gets a stadium and ensuring that your rivals are handicapped in the 2010s?
What does actually that leave you? The trophies the Mussolini era handed to your club in the 1920s and especially 1930s, including handing out fake passports, because they wanted to go well by FIAT and use some Oriundi and "Oriundi" for the World Cup?
Actually no, that probably just leaves you with you 1905 league title which we weren't around to witness, but the only thing we know is that you were still wearing your prison clothing
