Not in that place.
Zone around Stazione Termini is an unsafe place.
I know that there are cheaper hotel but late night is a very dangerous place.
Duca d Aosta bridge is, instead, a dangerous place, for away football fans.
I’m a former AS Roma ultras, now 43 years old, and I can tell you that we have nothing against Brighton. With Manchester United and Liverpool were other type of bad stories.
Sorry again for what happened. Now I m going to my seat in curva sud. And next week I will be in brighton.

Ps for the man looking for a crutch he must fo to a FARMACIA. But they are quiet expensive in that zone.
I don't think anyone here cares which street is which.

Seemingly every time a British club is drawn to play Roma there is a similar incident.

Just to try to make out that Brighton fans were at fault for entering a dangerous place is a poor attempt to absolve your fans of responsibility.

Brighton factually.....

I am guessing they are expensive due to the high level of buttock stabbing in the area, kind of supply and demand thing, pretty profitable for you guys all round, the cowards, in balaclavas or helmets get the wallet and phone, and the pharmacists make a mint of crutches and painkillers (y)

It is difficult for football authorities though. If you start punishing clubs for incidents away from the ground on a different day, where does it stop? Should Albion be punished if there’s trouble at the station when we play Palace? It’s a huge can of worms to open.

I mean I think it should stop at stabbing just one person. But then again I'm a bit of a snowflake.....

Everyone needs to look at themselves don't they?

The police. They must know there is this history of stabbings and know where Brighton fans are congregating. Are they putting police out there, are they making enough effort to secure convictions? Maybe they are. But it's a legitimate question for them to answer

The club. Roma. Are they doing enough to take the worst excesses off the culture of football ultra's?

UEFA. Do they just accept this as something that happens whenever a British team gets drawn in Roma? At what point do we start talking about sporting sanction? I think it's time
All in a perfect world though, which we will never be in. All of those institutions can be expected to be in the final 3 of anyone able or willing to do something. As I said, realistically what can be done. Realistically…?

Everyone would agree with that. Very much taking my words out of context. In that case rather than where does it stop, HOW do the football authorities prevent trouble occurring away from the ground on an entirely different day without punishing the 99.99% of genuine supporters that are not involved?

I have been stabbed, but it’s all part of the fun, I lived, see you tomorrow, UP THE f***ing ALBION.
Heard this on the radio (you plus one other I think). Awful, and hope you're ok.

The radio passed on advice to Brighton fans, which was not to wear colours. That's totally f***ed up. How about kick Italian clubs out of Europe for 5 years? It seems that every time a European club goes there they stab someone (or more).

Let the clubs find the culprits and jail them, and if they can't, ban the club or whole country from Europe.

Sounds like a job for the police to me.
Was it a job for the police (alone) when Liverpool fans rioted against Juventus? I'm not convinced the police in Italy give a shit about our fans getting stabbed.

We have the right to demand these things are done

If you’re talking about Heysel, not only inside the stadium - so very much a football matter - but also in no way comparable, thankfully.

But this is clearly a football matter - they don't just stab tourists every week, they stab football fans when they dare to travel to Italy
