Guest firetotheworks Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Mates dad was robbed and beaten when we played Napoli this year. The Italians just came up and said "Stockholm?", and even though they said no, they gave him a couple of hits towards the head and took his bag. Know that at least one more fan was stabbed and a few others beaten as well. It really is about time UEFA takes a f***ing look at that country, it's not right that even as a normal fan you should be shitting yourself about going to an away game. I watched England vs Italy in Palermo. I've definitely felt safer like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed to be bizarre reasoning, wants to spend more time with his family? His kids must stay up late. He posted this on the Facebook page: Hello. Just a quick note to say thank you for all your kind words on my departure. All I can say is that the last seven (!) years have been a real pleasure and I've enjoyed interacting with you all on air. I hope you understand why I've packed it in; it's just all become a bit much, with the other commitments I have, to stay up for 21-hour days. I owe my son more than being half-awake on Saturdays and I owe you lot no less than the best I can do when I'm on the show, which I felt I wouldn't be able to give for much longer. I'm really looking forward to the last show on the 30th and I'm sure the show will go from strength to strength from here. Cheers, Andy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
