Below is from Arsenal's visit in 2009. I have been a few times, Rome Derby twice and Bologna to name 3 and the numbers of Roma fans who want trouble is breath taking, My previous post was to include this sorry, I would also say what a City to visit, sadly the football is dangerous.
TRAVELLING TO/FROM THE STADIUM
There will be free bus service to and from the stadium, the meeting
point will be at Villa Borghese (Piazza Delle Canestre), please see map
inside.
All transport from this area will depart under police escort at 6.30pm,
you are strongly advised to take this transport and not make your own
way to the stadium, this is for your own safety.
• Supporters will be searched and asked to show their match tickets to
board the buses.
• The police will take convoys of 8 buses to the stadium, starting at
6.30pm.
• For the return journey the police will take all public buses to the train
station, in central Rome and not to Villa Borghese.
IF YOU TRAVEL TO THE STADIUM INDEPENDENTLY PLEASE BE AWARE
YOU ARE AT RISK, FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY PLEASE DO NOT USE THE
PONTE DUCA D’AOSTA BRIDGE TO GAIN ACCESS TO THE STADIUM.
If you travel to the stadium using a taxi please ask the driver to drop you
off at LG Ferraris IV.
STADIUM SECURITY
• Please be advised that the following is NOT permitted: Bags of coins,
perfume & makeup bottles and bags, large cameras
• The following are permitted: flags with no sticks or slogans
• The supporters will be searched twice, a ticket inspection by stewards
and then a full body search by police.
• You will be kept in at the end of the match, the local authorities have
confirmed that you will not be released from the stadium until the area
outside the stadium is clear and that they can guarantee your safety, this
may take up to one or two hours.
DIRECTORS, PLAYERS AND STAFF WOULD LIKE TO WISH YOU A SAFE
