Ooh la la!
Leave it to those Italians.
Juventus' Paolo De Ceglie, left, and Giorgio Chiellini, right, not only gave their shirts to
fans in the wake of the Italian club's 1-0 victory over Maccabi Haifa in Israel Tuesday, but their
shorts, too. (AP Photo).
I offer this picture not so much so we can ogle Italian bums (although my wife, ahem, begs to
differ), but as a vivid reminder that the UEFA Champions League is on again today.

It is now up to the Gold Coast Fans to get off your bums, buy a ticket and come and support a
really good football team. Our team has a real chance of actually winning this competition. I am
not saying we will, but we have a great chance.

games, chasing women, and entering university will do that to you).

made up of women and children many wearing club colours. Just to their left was a smaller group of
three or four people who made the 'noise.' One guy with a drum, one guy brandishsing yellow or red

How can couple of hundreds of idiots ruin your day?
Ask Paolo Maldini. A bunch of disrespectful morons booed him off the pitch with
a barrage of insults. This won't be a smudge in his CV but anyway the behavior shows how rotten
Italian football is.
One of the long-lasting bacteria in calcio are so-called fans; ULTRA movement
that have turned into a parody and perhaps is the best picture of the chaos in once the best league
in the world.
