Each gold star stands for winning 10 Serie A championships and at this stage Juventus has won more then 20 Serie A competitions. When they reach 30 another gold star will be added to the shirt.

It is the "scudetto" (with italian flag colours) worn by the team who won the last italian championship. So in Italy we don't say who won the championship that year but we usualy say who won the scudetto in xxxx \nForza Milan!

The EU flag is the symbol not only of the European Union but also of Europe's unity and identity in a wider sense. The circle of gold stars represents solidarity and harmony between the peoples of Europe.\nThe number of stars has nothing to do with the number of Member States. There are twelve stars because the number twelve is traditionally the symbol of perfection, completeness and unity. The flag therefore remains unchanged regardless of EU enlargements.\nThe history of the flag goes back to 1955. At that time, the European Union existed only in the form of the European Coal and Steel Community, with just six Member States (France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg). But a separate body with a larger membership - the Council of Europe - had been set up several years earlier and was busy defending human rights and promoting European culture.\nThe Council of Europe was considering what symbol to adopt for its own use. After much discussion, the present design was adopted - a circle of twelve gold stars on a blue background. In various traditions, twelve is a symbolic number representing perfection. It is also, of course, the number of months in a year and the number of hours shown on a clock face. The circle is, among other things, a symbol of unity. So the European flag was born, representing the ideal of unity among the peoples of Europe.\nThe Council of Europe then encouraged other European institutions to adopt the same flag and, in 1983, the European Parliament took up the call. Finally, in 1985, the flag was adopted by all EU heads of State and government as the official emblem of the European Union - which, in those days, was called the European Communities.\nAll European institutions have been using it since the beginning of 1986. »The European flag is the only emblem of the European Commission - the EU's executive arm. Other EU institutions and bodies use an emblem of their own in addition to the European flag. \nActually, the EU has 25 members (Italy, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Great Britain, Spain, Portugal, Denmark, Germay, Ireland, Greece, Czech Republic, Poland, Sweden, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Slovenia, Austria, Hungary, Slovakia, Cyprus and Malta) and 5 candidate countries (Romania and Bulgaria, which will be effective members from January 2007, Macedonia, Croatia and Turkey).

think has to do with game-fixing. celeb tv/sport telecaster in italy charged w/ choosing which match to broadcast, based on fixed fixtures. team managers, players may also b involved in football betting scandal

First of all let me just say, Sorry for the long post.\n\nThe Calcio scandal that's shocking the world (mostly i guess) is not a new thing, Its just bigger than than the rest.\nBack in the 80's Milan and Lazio where found guilty for manipulating  the last game in the league and were dominated t Serie B, But the Serie A never died.\n\nBut you have to understand in the Calcio some teams are working for favors.\nLets say Team "A" needs to win this match to avoid relegation or to win the league, Then Team "B" will throw the match this time and whenever they need a point or 3 in any season they will come back to team "A" to repay the favor.\n\nNow back to the main Q whether Juventus found guilty they will drop to Serie B (or C)\nbut they will come back for sure whether it was after a season (most likely) or 2, But they will come back.\n\nas for the scandal it self and the people who were behind it, we will never know what was it exactly who they are, We will know some of it and some of the people who found guilty, But not all.\n"The weakest will take the blame".\n\nAnd by now pure football can be found in streets not in stadiums, Football by now is almost about business, Its not that good old gentlemen sport.\nDon't get me wrong here its still fun to watch but you can't know what is happening behind the scene\n\nThis is just my opinion maybe its right and maybe its wrong.\nKeep football clean.

The answer is this, I have taken it from a previous question which was the same:\n\nThe Italian national team wear blue because it is the colour of Savoia, the ruling house of Italy from 1861 to 1946. Until the end of the second world war, the Italian flag always had the Savoy coat of arms in the centre, and it was only after the family were overthrown,and the Italian Republic established in 1946, that the plain tricolor was adopted as the national flag

What is happening affects the entire world of Italian soccer. Juventus's general manager (not intended like the way it is in England) if found at fault will cost them dearly. Nevertheless the investigation has far deeper ramification than just one team.\n\nForfeiting the titles won illegally is a must, but reassigning it to the second, or third placed is illogical. A championship is made of inter wined games that affect each other: if one game is fixed or piloted, then the whole season is void. That's it.

its Italian for "Blue", because the team color is blue.

Juve has by far the easiest game. A tie will do just fine for bothe Juventus and Reggina. Juve gets the Scudetto and Reggina avoids the two game series with the fourth place team from Serie B. Milan and Roma on the other hand both need the 3 points. Milan because they are trying to catch Juve for the title and Roma because they are trying to catch Fiorentina for 4th place and a shot at next years Champions League. Both of course need to win and get some help. After it all said in done, however, I expext that Juve will finish first followed by Milan, Inter, Fiorentina, and Roma.

The Italian flag long time ago was blue with a blue star in the middle pretty much like the Somalian one which was under Italian rule. Because of the similarities, Italy changed their flag to red, white, green, but the national team colors stayed the same.\n\nNow the Azzuri on the jersey is a representation of the sea that surrounds it or the sky

so you can tell them apart from the rest of the team..otherwise it would be confusing in  handball situation for example

I'll pay thousands of dollars or Euros for a shirt that any of Azzuri's sexy player wore... especially Del Piero... yummy!!! Italy's team has the best looking players in the whole world... they're so damn hot, that it's ridiculous...

I agree that the Italian league is very very strong. It is indeed the strongest, with the top 5 teams having a massive number of points compared to their counterparts in other leagues. For the Champions League you dont look at the lower end of the table.\n\nI think it is because Juventus have a defend first mentality. And Capello relies to heavily on Ibrahimovic instead of Del Piero and Trezeguet or are significantly better. Marcelo Zalayeta also is not that good, and so their attack is blunted due to bad substitutions. They can defend quite well, however their attack is lacking, and as Arsenal, Liverpool, and Deportivo showed in the past 3 years, 2 goals are all a top team needs to get past Juventus. \n\nArsenal 2-0 Juventus\nLiverpool 2-1 Juventus\nJuventus 0-2 Deportivo
