madras Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 A lot of fans who get stabbed are looking for trouble. There are some fairly notorious areas in Rome where Ultras meet up and fans are told in no uncertain terms not to venture there. Unfortunately this just gives the hard nuts ideas and they go down there and get shivved. Own fault really. possibly. but i'm sure any nufc fans who have been to italy to watch football will back me in my absolute disgust at a large section of italian supporters and the italian authorities.

There is a hooliganism problem in Italy no doubt, but I think it also speaks volumes that when ours fans have went to Italy they've came back largely unscathed. We have our idiots but by and large we're very well behaved in Europe whereas some teams, the London ones especially like to think they're in Green Street. Christ, even when it did kick off at one of our games it wasn't even our fans who were involved. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

West Ham went to Palermo and there was a handful of stabbings, we went a few games later and very little kicked off. I'm not saying there isn't trouble because there clearly is but we do seem better behaved and more level headed than most. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that's true, but it seems in this case the Arsenal fans were merely sitting on a coach when it was ambushed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistle17 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Good job Liverpool havnt been to Roma recently. Their fans will somehow find a way to murder a load of Italians involving crushing them under a wall, and get all English teams banned from Europe again...

In terms of this, you have to feel sorry for supporters of teams such Luton, Oxford, (then) Wimbledon etc who missed what will probably be their only chance to watch their team play competitive European football. Probably diddled Everton out of a couple of European Cup last 4's at least n all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're both right. I think nowadays, at least in Europe, our supporters and our authorities are the worst ones. They're just one of the reason why I stopped following italian football...
