The Cold Light Of Day
As daylight dawned in Italy today, big questions were being asked of the role than Rome’s police force played in the trouble last night before, during and after the Champions League quarter final. In the cold light of day, stories of their heavy handed tactics began to emerge and painted them in an inhumane light.
Riot police were accused of hitting out with their batons indiscriminately. Whilst some Manchester United fans may have been involved at various points in the tie, there was absolutely no need to hit out at women and children. It is behaviour that I find disgraceful. No doubt they will however go unpunished. There are, however, fear of retaliation next week…
