what a dream it would be to see Roby Baggio and Batigol play in the same fiorentina side. i would give anything to c that.
cool! that sucked when we cudn't see batistuta play anymore. i remember when he was top goalscorer etc and played really really well. those were the days
im glad to see firoentia back in serie a..

Do u kno what, if we got relegated and bankrupted, viola fans would be happy, and when we come back, i dont think they share the joy we have of the rivals returning.....
Oh they do.... have a look at some of the viola groups and the recent words of their chairman ( along the lines of... without juve there is no viola and without viola there is no juve)
the viola have lost the "most hated" team mantle to juve fans......Roma have it now!
Out of interest... how many games have you been to?
Viola will allways be juves biggest rival...
Roma are hated on the day of the match and in the press but otherwise arent really cared about on the curva.... whereas anti-viola banners are present at every juve match... anti-viola songs are sang at every single juve game
The atmosphere at a juve - roma match isnt close to that of a juve - viola match not to mention if we are the travelling fans....
The rivalry with viola is as fierce as it gets... romas jus a gentle warm up for the main event
well paul, i have been to Zero in italy and 1 in england, and shamefully i was in the utd stand (not as a fan).
From my eyes as a juve fan, i hate roma, but to me they have the mantle as they pose the greater threat than the viola....but i have a personall dislike for roma , so bias my be my arguement.

No real shame in that... ive allways found fans at old trafford to be decent... dont like their team but have sat with them several times

The thing with roma is a rivalry in a competitive sense ... eg as a team at a similar level.... whereas with viola it is a true rivalry born of natural hatred.
As such due to all the talk in the press and forums etc there is this perceived bitterest rivals tag but this isnt carried over to the terraces in the same way as the hatred for all things viola is....
gotta admit paul, fiorentina are bigest rivals only for guys in curva. i mean, does someone from say lithuania or canada who started following juve 3-4 years ago knows what all the hatred is about? only reading somewhere that la viola are rivals aint enough to start hating them with passion.
