A policeman was killed in italy after a homemade bomb went off in his face after the Catania v Palermo game. That now Means all Italian games at the weekend are now Postponed.

It's about time the Italian FA did something about the hooligan element in Italy. They are very reluctant to do anything.
Over the last few years there has been a lot of racist chanting, which has resulted in petty fines, and there are the 'Ultra' fans at Inter Milan, Lazio and Roma who seemingly can do what they want in the ground.
It's time they closed grounds, and took the problem seriously. Even UEFA didn't have the guts to ban Inter Milan from Europe when their Ultra fans threw flares in a semi-final against rivals AC Milan a few years ago, when the game was abandoned because of it.

Flares need to be banned from the grounds. The fans who attend the games need to be searched before the enter the ground so they don't have any weapons on them. Also to stop the violence after the game, keep the away fans in the stadium for around 30 mins so the home fans can get out of the stadium safely. This also a talk that the leagues could be suspended for a year and this will scupper Italy get Euro 2012. |

From what I've read the Italian matches have no stewards, just police who observe from affar, it means identifying individuals is very difficult compared to England, where the perpatrators can be easily identified.

Flares are already banned, and fans are 'searched' by the police before the game.
The problem is that the police are usually local people who have friends or are 'in' with the Ultras. Certain clubs give their Ultras free tickets and basically let them do what they like. Inter fans got a fucking scooter into the top tier, set it on fire and chucked it onto the terrace below! Fucking nuts!
Things happen all the time that would get English clubs banned. Last year Ascoli fans shot a flare through a pipe into visiting Sampdoria fans at the other end of the stadium.
I used to go and watch Ancona play in Serie C2 and there were always flares being lit and chucked onto the pitch.
The police are entirely to blame I reckon. They simply let things happen then when it gets really, really serious they step into the middle of it, but it's already too late.
last nights stuff happens all the time (although not with policemen being killed). Brescia v Atalanta regularly has deaths.
And it's all political. Livorno v Lazio is carnage, just because the clubs are traditionally left and right wing.
They really need to sort it out.

They do need to stop this from happening. This is not an Isolated Incident. A livorno fan got stabbed in Florence last week, their was trouble in the Atalanta-Catania game. In a Serie D game a linesman got his by a drum which was thrown from the growd. On the same day a club official of an amaetur(spelling) club was killed on the pitch trying to stop a fight where he got kicked in the head and died.

As many people have said it's uter chaos over there. They need to bring the power back to the officials and the club and away from the fans. If this did happen in England then I don't think we'd ever grace a European competition ever again.

The fact is that the footballing authorities don't do fuck all to the Italians.
Like Devon Red said if this was us we would be banned from every European competition going.
