It's something to do with the kits in the very early years of the game. I think remember if Juve gave them a set of kits and Arsenal gave Forrest a set?
Anybody fill in the blanks? Just had a look on Wiki I wasn't too far off.
The Italian football club Juventus F.C. derived its famous black-and-white striped kits from Notts County. 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, which only occurred due to the wrong shirts being sent to them, 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.[19] Juventus asked one of their team members, Englishman John Savage, if he had any contacts in England who could supply new shirts in a colour 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.[20]
“ Juve have worn the shirts ever since, considering the colours to be aggressive and powerful.[20] ”

Thats because Tesco havent monopolised the shopping there yet, but it is only a matter of time before pasta, pizza, proper Ice cream etc and all that sh1t is swallowed up by the Tesco marketing machine (but dont tell the yanks that Dominoes didnt invent Pizza)<br /><br />-- Thu Sep 30, 2010 4:25 pm --<br /><br />

Not if they are casually wandering round the city looking at the architecture, the toon army would have been straight on the piss

As well as the stunning architecture and history, it struck me that no matter what time of the day, the majority of the locals there - man, woman or child - were dressed to the nines; absolutely immaculately turned out. Everyone looked a million dollars.

Classy lot those Italians. Absolutely fell in love with the place.
I'll second that, they are collectively a very snappy dressing race. Even their tramps manage to look smarter than me ... but that's not too difficult i suppose.
You need to shave that tasche off mate.....and ditch the fleece.
