How does warning someone for that type of remark come remotely close to "cutting out the true Laziali"?

Seriously guys, you're going to argue the orthodox issue over whether or not a a chant by Feynoord fans against Ajax fans is or is not offensive in a thread about Lazio in the EL. I agree that it is in fact offensive and anti-semitic and can't possibly imagine how it it isn't (but that's my opinion). To argue that anyone who takes issue with the comments is simply not a true Lazio fan is rediculous. Come on, let's be reasonable here. 

Fair enough, then we need to be a little clearer about how we state things. The post in question was phrased as a statement, and did not include any explanation to indicate that the phrase was being disassociated from the author (i.e. Feynoord fans often say...). 


This is why we are diligent about this, we do not and will not ever accept anyone speaking for Lazio fans as a whole and this "history" is exactly the kind of thing we'd like to rid ourselves of. This reputation is unfounded and damaging to Lazio.

playoff round before the group stages as do Genoa. Rioma have to go through another round

So because someone is a "true" Laziale in your books means they should be given privileges to say things that are clearly and blatantly offensive.  And it obviously was not put forth in a manner that was merely  "stating what Feyer fans chant about Ajax" thats completely twisting it around. 
Whatever it is an off topic conversation and I dont want to judge what someone else really meant by their own personal comment, I just do not see how you can possibly argue that warning.

Regarding the Europa League my biggest fear is us going out early and completely letting us down with regards to playing in Europe again.  We worked so hard for this we cant let it slip away and emberass ourselves.  I just hope to see a strong showing and hopefully we manage to fo fairly deep.

Im not convinced he has yet. Yes, the squad has improved dramatically from last season to this season with additions like Lich, the extensions of Foggia recently, but contract issues with several players and the Zarate issue should have been sorted out already, so we could have gone into the mercato with a clean slate and just focused on the additions we needed. Its going to be a long summer I think.

Your opinion is moot, as it is uninformed; based solely on your own prejudice. Especially for you, being a fan of a team that has received similar accusations by media sources and individuals, it is a petty move. You are employing the very same tactics of those who mean to demonise Lazio and her fans - do you not see this?

I am not a Feyenoord fan. As Theo said, Lazio is my only team. This does not mean I cannot celebrate a team from one of my favourite cities on the planet, whose team I have had the pleasure of seeing play. It is ridiculous for my words to assume themselves as "that of a Feyenoord fan" so as to clarify anyone's understanding. In the same regard, is it expected of the average forum member to consider each instance of defamation towards Roma (or any other team) as the words of a "Lazio fan", and not themselves? Not to mention the large weighting of this communities' membership are fans with loyalties with EPL teams who have on various instances openly displayed disdain for opposing teams - why have you not considered them with the same sort of censorship and ridicule?

In defence of both Feyenoord and Het Legion (those responsible for the chants in questions), there is not anti-Semitic or offensive base to them whatsoever. As stated before, Ajax is a Jewish club - just as Amsterdam has always been a Jewish city. The fans, management and players openly identify as being Jewish. In fact, the F-Side (Ajax ultras) will commonly chant "Joden! Joden!" in support of their players. Consider the following images.



A huge Israeli flag as a banner by the F-Side. Please also note the tattoo, it being one of the official symbols of the F-Side (and correspondingly Ajax).

Feyenoord's firm is staunchly anti-racist, which corresponds completely with the accepting and tolerant Dutch culture. In fact, all main firms of teams in the Eredivisione are anti-racist while maintaining an apolitical stance. The usage of "Joden" in regards to Ajax is only as a taunt, and really cannot be seen as anything else. Please consider the following article http://www.searchlightmagazine.com/index.php?link=template&story=24. Note that I do not support the militant Communist ideals in this article, but have only provided it as further proof of the opposition that Feyenoord fans have to racism.

In my own defence, why, if these slogans were in fact mine and not that of Feyenoord, would I have said them in Dutch? There is no relevance whatsoever for me to be using it unless I was making specific reference.

To conclude, I do not mean to derail this topic. It is just in this situation that I am finding myself needing to defend not only a team, but also its fans and myself. Your tactics were reactionary and were simply a reflection of your own ignorance.

I personally look forward to Lazio playing Ajax.
