[Albion] Romas in ground atmosphere

[Sea Cider]

Not condoning throwing of stuff of course, but lots of young Brighton fans spent more time goading the Roma through the plastic walls than watching the match. Not surprised if that resulted in retaliation given the rep of Italian fans

Past tense - Elizabeth.

Or past tense while current was cheating on her husband?

I thought they were briliant. This may not be an opportune time to say it, but Roma really are one of the good guys of Italian football. So many of their clubs totally overrun by fascistic gangs like the worst club in world football Lazio, but not Roma. I know Roma fans in England and so I'm a long time admirer, have been given many scarves in the past! Probably my "second" Italian club after Livorno which as the likes of Attila will attest, are something akin to the St Pauli of Italy

Didn’t exactly cover selves in glory what with stabbings, insulting banners and throwing missiles. A side from that, they’re lovely people.

Thought they were pretty good. Interesting listening to 'Mr Boxpark' who is working for PBOBE (and is a STH) on the new fanzone talking about how he's trying to encourage things like the use of drums and rehearsed/coordinated singing plus moving people at the Amex.....'like Palace who have a good atmosphere'.

 

[Hotchilidog]

I thought the atmosphere was great and that we did a decent job ourselves before the 4th knocked the stuffing out of us. Fair play to the young lads sticking with The Great Escape after the game too, that’s the spirit we need on Thursday

 

[Weststander]

2-0 down to us and it would've been quiet.

A stadium half the size the Amex was incredible against CP and last season against a load of visitors.

 

[studio150]

Roma must be trying to get some American investment with NBA style player introductions, NHL bazooka giveaways , goal music.

But on the night a good experience and just shows what West Ham could have achieved if the London Olympic stadium have been converted properly

Boxpark isn’t about atmosphere it’s about money. Bringing him in isn’t going to help your average fan, it’s just a DFL trying to rewrite the history of Sussex (again) but it’s got no emotional attachment to the club.

What on earth could our answer be to this for next week's match?!

"You can stick your carbonara up your arse"?

"You can stick your carbonara up your arse"?

Don’t knock it til you’ve tried it

 

[dwayne]

Have put this elsewhere but taxi driver screwed me and my brother on the way there and dropped us off the wrong side of the stadium.

We had to walk all the way round which was ok at the beginning but by the time we hit the bridge .....f me..... No wonder they said avoid it. Absolute hell. Groups of thugs shouting in our faces , slit throat gestures . I'm shocked we didn't get physically attacked !!!

I just don't get it ? Is it just small penis syndrome. Why would you be so angry with a couple of blokes with their head down? Was a buzz to get past it I guess but I will be more careful in future.

 

[heathgate]

When you see 'extreme' things like Marseille and last evening, it certainly puts our home noise (along with all PL grounds) well and truly in to perspective.

Yup, we have been brow beaten by the effin H&S crowd.... sit down and say nothing that might possibly offend anyone.... sadly, clubs have bought into the modern fan ethos,... even folk on here deride the less malleable fans as anti social..... also, if any of us dare question Barber and his own sanitised vision of bottle topless sycophants, spending oodles of money, we are often shouted down by the inner sanctum of lickers.

You bring out the best in everyone

well who would have thought being too cool to take the clubs advice would put you in potential danger

Like it was in the last European game when they went behind in the first minute

Club just advised they recommended bus .....not to actively avoid taking a cab !

Anyway all good

 

[Questions]

At least their fans didn’t switch sides during the game, something which the Italians have been prone to more than once in fairly recent history ……

When did they do that ?

 

[PeterT]

When did they do that ?

WW1 & 2

That made me chuckle.

Is chuckling the intended response or was it meant to be offensive? And are we the first British side to play them since she died or do they bust that banner out every time?

Maybe we could get them back by making a banner saying Romanes Eunt Domus?
