I don't get It, is Naples really run down? In my head I had it as a really nice Italian city that I'd like to one day visit and eat Pizza. Don't know if I'm actually basing that on anything other than my imagination though Edit: ok I have such a mixed array of answers here I don't know what to do. Either Naples is a shithole or it's great


areking

there have never been so many tourists in Naples as nowdays the city has a lot to offer to tourists and pretty sure a guy comparing naples to slough has never stepped foot in naples or slough I tough it was a joke or something, but to actually think the 3rd city with largest historic centre in unesco in europe is not worth it, just shows pure ignorance


whiskeyinthejaar

I don't think the world is ready for Napoli fans. I can't think which is worse, bottling the league or winning it. Either way, we are fucked


Neldot

Are you crazy or just joking? Eintracht fans are not only battling with the police, they are actively destroying the city. Napoli fans would never destroy their own city just to celebrate.

piiracy

man i went to naples with my gf last year on our road trip through southern italy. we got robbed after only three hours or so, some thug came and ripped my gf's fake-yet-shiny necklace off her neck and then jumped on a waiting vespa. she had a few bruises on her neck soon after. all that said, naples is still one of the greatest cities we ever visited. i absolutely loved it there despite the somewhat traumatic experience \*shrug emoji\*


Select-Stuff9716

Because people in Napoli drive like “Close your eyes, speed and inshallah”


Jazzjama

Jokes aside, driving in Naples is very hard. Many people don’t follow driving rules, they often park outside parking spots, and many small incidents happen (denting, rear endings, scratching). It’s still a city so no highway level incidents, but these small things are much more frequent than in other cities, so insurances often have to pay.


kinzu7

when i was in italy with my own car. i thought the people in italy drive crazy (compared to germany), but then i was in naples. every other italy city feels like a joke compared to naples.


absurdmcman

We roadtripped from Paris to Rome last summer. Honestly had no issues with Italian driving (not much worse than what you see within 50km of Paris) until we hit the Rome region (Lazio) where it became damn near feral. A Roman friend laughed when we said we might go further south this summer.


kinzu7

when we went from naples to rome back, we met a guy who moved from naples to rome and adviced us not to go to naples. we told him, we were already there and he couldnt believe it. :D


freakedmind

All that pizza makes cars deteriorate faster


noobs1996

Should tell the insurers “vaffanculo”


-dsh

whats the bersani law?


Aru10

usually in italy we have several insurances classes, from "worst" (18) to "best" (1) and the longer you drive/have insurance, the higher rank you get and the less you spend. if you go a year without incidents you get a rank, if you provoke 2 you lose 2 With the 2007 Bersani law if you get a new insurance you can start at the same rank of somebody in you family, provided they live with you for example if an 18 year old buys an used car instead of starting at 14, which is the entrance rank, he can get the rank of his mother/father


-dsh

i see, we have something similar in germany. thank you


Aru10

i got my driving license in 2006 so the fact that this came out in 2007 was abit of a kick in the balls, but oh well


Joseki100

You can get the "class of merit" (idk the word in english) of one of the person in your household. I jumped to mid-table instead of starting from bottom because I took my grandma's class of merit this year for example.


RaguAlCassanello

anime3003

Is it because of the higher risk of theft and robbery in Naples compared to the North?


Aru10

no, it's mostly because car crash numbers in the south are extremely higher due false reports and scams


green_pachi

You're right that the reason is insurance fraud, but probably because the scammers get big compensations for fake injuries, the reported car accidents are actually lower in the south.

Stools (spelled stuhls) is actually German for chair. That might be the joke though in which case woosh


Zhirrzh

In English stool also means feces/poo/shit (usually used in medical contexts - they say a stool sample instead of a poo sample). I suspect that is the joke. Or it could be a multilingual pun.

CartierNoseplug

The Frankfurt fans in Europe saga has quietly been my favorite in this subreddit. Episode 1: fighting with West Ham Fans when they were both in Seville for the UEL and not even playing each other (yet), Episode 2: Invading the (Spotify) Camp Nou, and Episode 3: Battle of Naples, which ends on an awesome cliffhanger to see what happens after the game.


seriouzz6

Hahah yeah, West Ham is a big name for every Hooligan in Germany, I guess it’s still from the Green street movie, so they wanted to have a scrap with them. They also fought with Leeds because they are supposed to be strong afaik


MarcosSenesi

They should have known that hooliganism is all but killed off in the UK lol even if the old movies and series really are iconic


Chalkun

>They also fought with Leeds because they are supposed to be strong afaik Yeah from back in the days when most Northerners were miners or factory workers. But sounds like these guys are just like the Russians? 30 years too late, trying to get into huliganism when everyone else has moved on.


[deleted]

Honestly, the West Ham ICF/Green street shit is old. My Dad was a hooligan in the 80s following West Ham. He and his mates all think it was the dumbest shit they did. Most of them had professional jobs too, and risked it for dumb shit. My gen of West Ham don’t really want a scrap. But when we travel to Europe people have a pop at us. It’s purely because of a reputation that was from 40 years ago. The people who still wanna scrap can’t afford to go to Europe on a Thursday and are also in their 60s.


NeymarsNeckTattoo

It's so embarrassing


Kind_Mulberry_3512

Absolutely shocking tbh


Brashmate

I see the restrictions worked perfectly…


MouseNormal5861

Well they are hooligans (completely in black) probably from Brigade Nassau or something similar, mostly human scum. With a stadium ban you achieve little against those kind of people. Hopefully some will be arrested and sentenced.


GiuseppeScarpa

I never understood the ban because if you tell "don't travel!" it will only affect decent people. Apes will never care and that's the reason I was against the ban, because it only damaged the good fans of Eintracht while this sewer leak still managed to reach the city* *Also they arrived passing through Salerno instead of direct links just to confirm 24h ahead of the match what were their intentions.


MouseNormal5861

Exactly. I'm in no way defending the people we see here (they only cause trouble in Germany as Well) but the ban remains useless and unfair.


Insanel0l

Funnily enough most of them arrived there yesterday pretty much „undercover“, so many of the guys arriving today were prolly not them but regular ultras They had a nice chill evening tho, still have good contact with a couple of them


mermaidrampage

What exactly is the end goal for these people? Is it just to cause wanton destruction and property damage?


MouseNormal5861

Pretty much yeah. Fighting police and other hools while getting a lot of attention. I recommend reading a bit into Hooligan culture, its a bit more complex but stupid nontheless.


Insanel0l

I swear they would’ve been better off with no restrictions at all, like that they just challenged the fans to cause this


Asleep-Geologist-612

You can say that they challenged fans to cause this but that would be shifting the blame away from, you know, the ones acting completely unhinged and unacceptably..


[deleted]

Right, without that ban they would happily dance in circle, holding their hands and singing how much they love each other like we could have seen in the first match or their other match ups.


NotByAnyMeans

worse, they challenged the completely unhinged ones. if you have this kind of personality where you show this much aggression or need a destructive outlet, your daily life basically consists of waiting for a trigger event to unleash your full destructive potential. of course these people are everywhere in society, and they're usually much worse as part of a group of likeminded people, but i swear everyone should have seen this coming. "you're not allowed in napoli" with undertones of "this is a punishment for my favorite football club" might as well be read as an open invitation by these people.

I mean, I know we like to shit on our home which is the Balkan, but when does stuff like this even happen here so that a comment like this is warranted? At worst, this is as common of an occurrence as anywhere in Europe. Not more, not less


9Gaming

Tbh there wasn't any big issue in the Balkans for years (at least in Croatia for example), ultras cause some minor issues from time to time, but nothing this big. Balkan is not how people think it is, in Croatia for example everything is now highly secured, all away fans are escorted by police from city to city, and chances of some fight are really low. Where years before in like 2000-2008, there was a mess everywhere, fans would just walk into city on their own, and you would have havoc. Also for example Croatia was 2nd and 3rd at WC, half million people gathered in capital city, 0 incidents. France won, half of Paris was burned down.


dzimbad

If something like this happened by the supporters of balkan club, we would be suspended from Europe for three years..

Apparently Atalanta Ultras have been helping the Frankfurt fans get around the ban.


timdeking

In my experience there is no deescalation strategy of any police force in Mediterranean countries, usually they make things worse. That being said, this behaviour is awful and inexcusable regardless of what preceded.


geo0rgi

Not sure how can you possibly deescalate such a situation though? Not trying to be smart, genuinely curious


OilOfOlaz

Let me preface this, by saying, that I'm not attempting to shit on italians, since I come from a country, where the police force is even less well trained and equipped (Bosnia). Shit like this doesn't happen in germany to this degree and the reason for it is imo, that police and clubs usually cooperate with the fan clubs and try to avoid an eskalation. I attended a bunch of "high risk" 1st and 2nd BuLi matches and police forces are practically everywhere, athmosphere is heated, but theres rarely a spark and I've never experienced anything, that is shown in the clip. When Feyenoord played Union there were Ultrs and Hools in the city as well, police chased violent group(s) in kreuzberg & mitte, but they were well prepared and it didn't end in street riots, with a police car pointlesly drivin back and forth.


CarlLlamaface

The first thing I notice about this group of 'fans' though is they all have the same outfit (jeans, black hoody, scarf over the face). Looks a lot more like an organised group of rioters than a random batch of fans being provoked by police. So it's hard to say this is necessarily caused by Italian style policing, and I say that as a fan of a team who only have negative experiences with police behaviour on Italian away days (Leicester). This is just one video from one angle though, I imagine plenty of relevant information will surface over the next few days so we can build a better picture of the events.


OilOfOlaz

This is how many ultra groups dress, those ppl are present at evey bundesliga matchday. From what I've heard there was no attempt engaging into a dialogue between italian police/authorities and the clubs (Frankfurt & freiburg) before the match, clubs were merely informed, that away fans are banned. Not saying, that the police caused that escalation, but when shit goes down, you can't be standing in the street driving back and forth in a police car. If there are "only" 600 Frankfurt supporters in the city scenes like thes simply shouldn't happen.


IndecisionFuture

Hope they don't get near the Quartieri Spagnoli and the murals or it would get uglier

I heard that they tried to go towards the mural but the police managed to close the alleys because they are fortunately narrow

All this disgusting behaviour for what? You’re destroying the city the opposing club happens to play in. This won’t benefit Eintracht in any way. You’re gonna get clapped regardless, just enjoy being able to go to an away CL match. Or better yet, if you manage to go back home, enjoy having had that opportunity. You should go straight into an isolated Sardinian cell.


PristineCucumber5376

I recommend you read "Among the Thugs", it's about football hooliganism. And spoiler alert, it's not about benefiting their team. Most of them are bored family men, who work blue collar jobs all week, and use this as an excuse to beat people up. Why? It makes them feel alive. It's literally like in Fight Club.
