... going to grow a pair and start cracking down on Italian football for the violence, racism and corruption that is endemic in their game?

This time, it's those lovable Lazio Ultras with their amusing fun-loving ways:

Scum.

Our manager was one of the Irreducibili Group as a youngster. Beleive they've sported their flag at some of our games. I warmed to them after watching a number of documentaries and understand why someone brought up in a working class district of Rome would find appeal in their ranks.

That said, targeting scarfers, using weapons, and the overwhelming superiority of numbers, is just utter cowardice.

Hope the guys injured make a full recovery.

What you fail to understand is that in the UEFA handbook violence is an English problem. Pretty much every other nation is exempt.

You do realise that anything presented by Danny Dyer or Ross Kemp doesn't actually qualify as a documentary, don't you? :)

Danny gets involved in some proper nawty tear ups.

Here's a documentary sans Danny about Lazio's hardcore.

A friend of mine, A Tottenham supporter got stabbed in Feyenoord after an unprovoked attrack years back and spent ten days in Hospital. He has followed Spurs in most of their away games in any European fixtures since and says it has never really got any better. Tottenhams hooligans themselves have a reputation abroad so following them unfortunately brings all sorts of unwanted trouble for the genuine supporters.

You warmed to them after watching that? Violent, racist, hooligan scum (them, not you)

Dostoyevsky is actually Danny Dyer.

Well, Danny Dyer's certainly no Dostoyevsky :)
