"We are really sorry you thought that what happened in Cagliari was racist. You have to understand that Italy is not like many other north European countries where racism is a REAL problem. We understand that it could have seemed racist to you but it is not like that.
"In Italy we use some 'ways' only to 'help our teams' and to try to make our opponents nervous, not for racism but to mess them up. We are a multiethnic fans organisation and we have always welcomed players from everywhere. However, we have always used that 'way' with other teams' players in the past and we probably will in the future.

We're not racist. We just do racist things.

Looks like the perfect team to replace Portland for Sir Winston

My favorite Slur Italians use is Moolenyan

Even worse, this is a group of Inter ultras(i.e. the team Lukaku scores goals for) defending Cagliari fans and telling Lukaku sorry his feelings got hurt.
What a shitshow.
What a shitshow.

it's easy to sympathize with the fans here IMO as they clearly meant no offense.

It’s cute they think that Italy is Northern Europe. Definitely no racial inferiority complex going on in that country.

I think it’s just a fricky translation comparing themselves to northern Europe

Oh there was a good episode about Columbus Day
How every US Italian loves him
But in reality the north and the south are so split
Thought it was relevant to the quote
Northern Italians see Southern Italians as garbage.

That was a scene with my favorite side character, Furio.
But I think the point that the other poster was making is that while Northern Italians look down on Sicilians, actual “Northern” Europeans look down on all Italians even more.

Yea I knew the point just made me think of that haha
Actually some northern Italians think of Sicilians as Africans

The Dennis Hopper/Christopher Walken scene in True Romance is a classic.

I saw that the other day. What the frick is wrong with these idiots?!? WM72, help me figure out the line of thinking with these people as you’re the resident Italian football expert. (I know it’s not just Italy but the country has shown its arse enough lately).
