Let's hope our Lazio face will return. Ronaldo+Roma's style should ensure us at least a different game then te Empoli one. It's redemption time,.. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

Roma fans banned from San Siro


Roma supporters have been banned from travelling to San Siro for the Milan game, while Cagliari’s curva nord will be locked down against Sampdoria.

The police authorities have marked the October 28 Serie A clash as very high risk, Level 4, for crowd trouble and taken steps to help prevent problems.

Tickets can only be sold in Lombardy, given out in small numbers and sale will stop at 19.00 the day before the game.

The Disciplinary Commission has also taken action against Cagliari after player Antonino D’Agostino was struck by a homemade bomb or firework thrown from the stands following the 1-1 draw with Catania.

The curva nord – the section where the home fans sit – will be closed for the November 4 meeting with Sampdoria at the Stadio Sant’Elia. Cagliari have also been fined £10,000.

This is the second time this season that the new system has been used to close down only an area of the stadium.

The first was when Inter’s curva was shut to punish the ultras who held up insulting banners aimed at Napoli fans on October 7.

The Nerazzurri supporters won’t be allowed into the curva for the October 31 game with Genoa.
