Man Utd Fans Penalised
Manchester United fans have been informed that they will be able to travel to Rome to watch their team play in the semi-finals of the Champions League, despite speculation that they would not following a UEFA fine in recent weeks. That was a result of crowd trouble again Lille in France that was more the home club’s fault than anything.
However, Roma have declared that Manchester United fans will have to wait in the stadium until all home fans have left in an attempt to prempt any possible crowd trouble there. It was the Italian police that have made the decision rather than the club. However, I think that it is just another attempt by another country to make our fans out to be violent hooligans when, in truth, countries like Italy and Turkey have far worse records than us. It is a form of discrimination because it would actually make far more sense to let 4000 out first rather than make them wait for a further 60000 to leave.
