Champions League/Uefa Cup 07/08

when steaua played against rapid in the uefa cup 2 years ago.the city was a war zone before the games.just go to youtube.com and search for "bataie galerii"

usualy when a derby match is played stuff like this happens steaua-dinamo, steaua-rapid, dinamo-rapid.the fights between the fans and the gendarmes are on a daily basis...the rest i doesent happen very often.but the fights are often

i saw the spurs match great comeback from psv gomes did good to my dissapointment

It's hard to talk about certain fans without sounding xenophobic but I have to agree. While in south america, europe and africa football is like a religion, in asia and usa it's like some quaint passtime. Although after hearing the yanks' great original chants I'd prefer them not to sing. Some guy asked on a sports forum today what's the best football chant you kno, loads turned up saying USA! USA! or here we go steelers here we go!

yh i remember that. its massive down there in central europe. loads of fighting and all.

Nuno10 : I didn't realise they had crowd troubles in Romania, that was sorted out in England in the late 80s after Heysel because of course all English clubs were banned from the competitions.

nuno, there are loads of troubles in the central europe. all those countries its massive. as sun sad it becomes a warzone.
comparing to turks and greeks its nothing. they got guns and whatnot.

oh my. seriously i think they just need to keep themselves to baseball and 'american sissy football'. and yh i forgot basketball a sport i could accept.

and i also hate when people say soccer. its football. only americans and many asians use the word 'soccer' its pathetic tbh.

unfortunelty in romania many fans come to games just to fight with the rival fans or the police.they live for that.its just they way of life.and its wrong.anyway its better than 5-6 years ago;now women and children can come to games

good to see the improvement, here in sweden the hooligans dont find in the stadium or around it. they arrange fights. and that doesnt bother anyone and they arent a danger to others :).

i have to admit though, the atmosphere in those countries is amazing, singing nonstop and all.

of course, because of the comunist influence romania was left behind in every field of activity.we still have to learn from the western countrys. ojust last year some teams from the 1 div took down the fences, compared to england...i have never seen an english stadium with fences seperating the fans from the pitch

Yea but now united are champions they presume we all are when some of us have suported them for as long as they can't remember

wouldn't put it past UEFA so sounds reasonably true.
I'm just annoyed that we have to play the Arse and if we manage to beat them then another Chelski semi.:(

here's another
