Roma or Lazio

[SerenityNigh]

Have you considered the CA zone?

I don't need reasons for my opinions and facts only push my opinions towards the middle, but Lazio do make a nice shirt

Went to Lazio v Roma at Stadio Olympico in March 2000. Mental. Everyone, absolutely everyone, geriatrics included stood on their seats. There were more people in the ground than there was capacity for. Lazio came from behind to win 2-1. At the end of the game Roma ultras set the seating on Curva Sud on fire.

Well you sure did got a lot of bang for your buck there mate.lol

Always liked Roma because of Totti. We could have had something similar with Rooney.

Always preferred Roma, then took a brief hiatus while that biff Mourinho was there, but now I prefer them again

Instead we got Hibbert.

This is from the hooliganism section of Romas Wikipedia page.

Rivalries with other teams have escalated into serious violence. A group of ultras who label themselves the Fedayn — 'the devotees' — after a group of long-forgotten Iranian guerrilla fighters are regarded to be responsible for the organised hooliganism. In 2014 Daniele De Santis, a Roma ultra, was convicted of shooting Ciro Esposito and two others during clashes with Napoli fans who were in Rome for their club's Coppa Italia final against Fiorentina. Esposito died of his wounds. De Santis was sentenced to 26 years in prison, later reduced to 16 years on appeal. Roma ultras have displayed banners celebrating De Santis.

There have been multiple instances of Roma ultras attacking supporters of foreign clubs when playing in Rome. These attacks have regularly featured the Roma ultras using knives, poles, flares, bottles and stones on unarmed foreign supporters, resulting in multiple hospitalisations. Home games against Liverpool in 1984 and 2001, Middlesbrough in 2006, Manchester United in 2007, Arsenal in 2009,Tottenham Hotspur in 2012, and Chelsea in 2017 have all resulted in multiple stabbings and other injuries to foreign supporters. In 2018, Roma ultras travelling to an away game at Liverpool attacked home supporters, resulting in a home supporter getting critically injured.

Obviously Lazio have their bad element too, but i don't think it's as simple as Lazio bad and Roma good imo.

How did I not see this coming

Lazio fan arrested in Munich for giving Nazi salute

An Italian fan was arrested in Munich late on Monday for performing an Adolf Hitler salute after the police were called to a beer hall where a gathering of Lazio supporters had assembled.

Not bothered about either of the Rome clubs being a Fiorentina supporter but if had to pick one i'd go for Roma due to Gabriel Batistuta going to them when he left the Viola, despite the hatred between Fiorentina and Roma

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

I have no idea who my Italian club would be

I quite liked Brescia when Roberto Baggio played for them

 

[Exeter_Gently]

Parma...always

 

[chrismpw]

I went neither because I've never followed European football.

Like the Roma colours/kit though.

Very good mate. But you did give enough of an eff to post that though.

If I had to choose between 2 sets of scumbags I pick the scumbags that aren't Nazi's
