       It’s hardly a surprise tho is it, whilst the majority of fans
       across the world are ok there is still always some that have to
       have a go, but the clubs do nothing to stop this. Slating the
       ref after a game, surrounding him all night on the pitch, blame
       the ref for your loss and no attempt to take responsibility for
       their own actions. I also have to question how UEFA and the
       Hungarian authorities thought it would be a good idea to take
       him back through the standard route of an airport. Surely,  they
       should know by now that security arrangements should be made
       especially in theses situations.
       I think it’s a real shame for him and his family, after he dealt
       with a really difficult game very well (in my opinion) that they
       then have to be subjected to that on the journey home

       Re the videos of Taylor being attacked In the airport, this is
       what happens when you as a manager set the example u did Jose.
       Any small bit of respect I had for him has definitely been lost.
       Whether he was good or bad, Anthony and HIS FAMILY should never
       have to experience that, most certainly not when doing their job
       CORRECTLY! Also, what a sad desperate life these people have,
       waiting at an airport to attack the referee! So sad and
       desperate. Not a braincells between any of them. If Rosetti has
       a brain which I do think he does he'll continue to support
       Anthony like PGMOL have this evening.

       No offence but italians are some of the worst fans in Europe. I
       remember my dad going to Italy away days and the treatment not
       just by the fans but also local law enforcement agencies sums up
       what is wrong with them. Let's not forget this is a country that
       cannot let go of its fascist past, and has even elected a
       Mussolini-supporting PM.
       Roma should come out and strongly condemn the assault on Anthony
       and his family, and issue a formal apology. Failure to do so and
       they should be banned from UEFA competitions for a significant
       length of time. Let's see their reaction then

       I’ve followed Liverpool all over Europe and Italian fans are by
       far the worst. The only problems we’ve ever had in fifty years
       of away travel has been with Italians. They particularly like
       outnumbering supporters who aren’t interested in trouble and
       attacking them. I have personal experience of this with my wife
       at Roma in 1984 and Napoli in 2019. They are cowards. The scenes
       from the airport will come as no surprise to anybody who’s ever
       encountered Italian fans.
       UEFA share responsibility (along with the truly despicable
       Mourinho) for this attack on Anthony Taylor and his party
       though. Why does an organisation that is making money hand over
       fist allow officials to travel economy with the full knowledge
       that those officials may encounter aggressive behaviour? Saying
       they didn’t know is just evidence of their negligence.
       UEFA really are inept. Of the ten European Cup Finals I’ve been
       to their incompetence ruined four of them as spectacles (1984,
       1985, 2007 and 2022).

       Having seen the longer video of the airport, the security
       planning of escorting the referee party to the airport is
       shambolic. The incident was unfortunately hardly unpredictable
       and it’s no exaggeration to say someone could’ve been seriously
       attacked / struck with something. The police seemed very slack,
       showing no urgency at all! This in itself needs addressing by
       UEFA for future games.

       Ban Roma from any European competitions for 5 years or until
       their fans learn to behave like civilised human beings,
       whichever is longer.  [emoji35]

       As if he'd not had a tough enough time during the game and in
       the Car Park area he then has to see his wife and teenaged
       daughter subjected to such appalling treatment whilst they are
       all returning from what may have been the most prestigious
       appointment of his career
       UEFA have much to explain methinks, as do Roma and Mourinho

       I hope Marciniak keeps the CL final and makes some controversial
       decisions against Inter Milan, costing the game.
       It will get to the point where UEFA won’t have many options to
       appoint to Italian team games
       Personally would love to see Taylor on another Roma game and
       Oliver on Juventus but we know it won’t happen.

       Too true, and this is what happens when appointments pander to
       the vested interests of those competing.  Doesn’t help that
       refereeing is heavily controlled by Italians at the moment!
       Knowing marinho’s antics, Sevilla will have been very anxious
       about the referee appointment, and this is another reason why an
       English ref was a good choice - one thing to our credit is
       they’re seen as strong refs who can’t be influenced.
       Same with PGMOL which is too close to the premier league. In
       everyone’s interest to keep ref appointments completely outside
       the clubs’ influence.
       UEFA refs committee will lose a lot of credibility if it doesn’t
       out very publicly to back Taylor and heavily criticise some of
       the serious incidents.

       Honestly find it shameful and embarrassing that grown men have
       got nothing better to do with their lives than go to an airport
       with the intention of abusing a man with his family, trying to
       get home. Nothing but respect for Taylor for not reacting more
       to the situation because I certainly wouldn’t have been able to
       control myself.
       Mourinho is, and always has been a disgrace and is quite clearly
       the catalyst for this incident thanks to his pathetic actions on
       the touch line followed by the unacceptable outburst in the car
       park. However, we all know he will not be held accountable by
       UEFA who will simply brush it under the carpet as usual, and
       will instead just stop appointing Taylor to any games involving
       Italian teams.
       IMO PGMOL should boycott UEFA competitions until action is
       taken, unfortunately the only consequence of this will be our
       referees miss out on the top games through no fault of their
       own.
       A human being should not be assaulted for doing his job!!!
