If you're going to quote a website, read the whole passage. "No one should assume that a Celtic Cross, divorced from other trappings of extremism, automatically denotes use as a hate symbol." Where is the other symbolisim of hatred? I've never actually seen that symbol used by a hate group.
If it was actually intended that way, we have those types of people in America too. Yes, I'll admit Italians are prejudiced... we're even prejudiced against our own kind. The northerners hate the southerners... and don't get me started on the Sicilians...all of mainland Italy is prejudiced against us.
As far as I'm concerned, both players got what they deserved.
This is reminding me of my dad and his friend fighting over whose team is better. After a certain point, you should just drop it, because people will start justifying bs just to **** the other person off.

Anyone watching the goings on of the Italian league? It would seem that the match fixing scandal has been met with some of the toughest penalties ever imposed in football.
I have to confess to not knowing all of the details of the case but I do feel somewhat for the fans of the teams back there. 3 top teams relegated and fined points from next season, Juve being one of them they were also stripped of there last 2 league titles.

Not to mention being knocked from series A to series C, and another team being knocked from series A to series B. And also being banned from playing in an y euro cup matches...
And by the way the banner says Proud to be italian (fair is the direct translation, but used in that context it would be more accurately translated to "proud" in english.)
+1 for being sicilian.. so when did you get off the island again bud?

I was actually born here, but when you step foot in my house it seemed like we never left.
The last time I left was in 94

My understanding is that all of the teams have started the appeal process and UEFA want the matter resolved before the Champions League games at the beginning of august so the results will be final soon whatever they may be.

Lot of players on Juventos want to leave because serie B dosent pay as much.
Capello "Traditore" is going to Madrid and is asking for carnavaro zambrota emmerson along with some other players to join him
Now with the titles stripped this gives Parlemo a chance
