"LA VECCHIA SIGNORA"

I believe that maybe a lot of the visitors who visit this blog curious with the heading or title of my blog ( la vecchia signora). However I believe that some of you familiar with the words( if you guys were a true Juventus fans).
The meaning of the words "la vecchia signora" mean (the old lady) which is the nickname for the Juventus f.c. Juventus owe their "Vecchia Signora" (Old Lady) title to the simple reason they are the oldest of the great Italian clubs, founded in 1897. Why Lady, and not a Gentleman? Because "Juventus" (Youth) is a latin word of feminine gender.

Juventus also have another nicknames which are La Fidanzata d'Italia (The girlfriend of Italy), bianconeri (The white-blacks),Le Zebre (The Zebras),La Signora Omicidi ([The] Lady Killer).

As a huge fan of Juventus fan I would be honoured to name the title of my blog "la vecchia signora" to show my support to the club. Eventhough, Juventus form have been question lately, Juventus will always be in my heart because I always belive that the best has yet to come. Forza Juve!!!

  1. Hey, I am a massive Juve fan too, and I am also writing a blog about them! I like the way you've given information about their nicknames, for the benefit of people who would not necessarily know what they are.

    You seem slightly more optimistic than me though when you say 'the best is yet to come'...i hope you are right!

    Have a read of my blog and, feel free to leave a comment if you like,

    Forza Juve!
