Naples aflame with hostility for England visit

My brother got married in Sorrento in 2019 and we spent quite a bit of time touring around Amalfi Coast and a few days in Naples, stunning part of the world and the Italians do the best food anywhere, they are seriously passionate about Napoli, almost obsessed! One lunchtime we were all in a bar outside Naples about to have lunch when my brothers son aged 6 at the time was wearing his football top which happened to be a Juventus top with Ronaldo on the back, the barman saw it and screamed "Noooooo"! think he was half serious but said if it was one of the adults he would have thrown us out! He was great though, asked us were we were from, we said Northern Ireland and then starts on about George Best and what a team we had in the eighties etc. Thought the people very friendly but very very passionate about their football.
Did the wee man get stabbed later on the day?
 
Had the misfortune of meeting a father and son from Burnley in a pub, when Burnley were playing. Sure it was one of the first games back in the Premiership after the initial covid carry on.

They were openly racist and proud of it.
 
Ive been banned off that train service twice when it was Virgin

Had some great sash bash’s over the years with English Bears

no bottles getting launched though :cool:
This was back in the 80s mate ,there was plenty of Man City and Chelsea boys on the train so the mockits jumped off at Motherwell for their own protection :))
