Napoli (A)

Any decent boozers in? Can’t find anything

[CosbehFox]

Today's a public holiday - everything will be open later if at all. 

 

If you are walking around the port, it will be mainly restaurants. Better off into the areas I mentioned in the first post.

We were told head to the Spanish quarter.

Bars over here ain’t what we know them as. Glorified cafes.

That's the case in Italy. Pubs are few and far between. 

 

Personally I'd be careful in the Spanish Quarter. It's a rat run. 

[Guest TamworthFoxes]

Bit late now!! I’m deep deep in the rat run!! Raining hard so most ultras will be sheltering I imagine. If anyone knows an English pub as we know it dm me the name. Cheers.

[ShayBeeby]

Frank malone or L’oca nera are the pubs we’ve just been told by locals. They looks decent but they open at 7pm

[CMN]

Can’t find any bars and we’re around the port area.

Anyone else having issue with the NHS app not scanning for their GreenPass ?

We are in the Irish bar in Piazza Bellini, not bad but quiet

What’s is called?

[CosbehFox]

Be very careful around there. 

 

The better end of the city is in the opposite direction. Vomero/Chiaia up on the hills.

Monumento a Dante Alighieri

there is a little square there, with a few bars/restaurants

[Guest TamworthFoxes]

Head towards Piazza Bellini. Been told English bars where we can watch the football.

"I have fears going back -- without a doubt," he told ESPN FC. "When we were there last time it was horrendous. My mate was taken to hospital by taxi from the ground and the taxi was attacked.

"The night before the game, I booked about 10 of us in a place called the Piazza Bellini in Naples. But I didn't know the square opposite, about 10 metres outside the hotel, was the meeting place of one of their main ultra groups. Word got round when we checked in and when we went out to look for a pizza, they were all waiting for us.

"Word got out that we were there and the next thing, there were scooters, motorbikes, chains, just trying to run you over and everything. Horrendous. Horrendous."

For a few days, at least from an official point of view, they silently witnessed the media tam tam that saw them as protagonists. Forty-eight hours after having taken the hardest blow, with the ban on travel for the whole championship, the Ultras of Napoli are back to talking. They did so through the representatives of the organized groups, in a conference set up in the heart of the Neapolitan capital, in Piazza Bellini: 

'' We want the people of Naples, our families and our friends to know that the ultras did not leave for Rome with belligerent intentions - the Ultras have explained -. It 's true, we are not angels, but we are not criminals or Camorra: we are not monsters". 
 

You are being played.

Where about you staying over here mate? 

[Fox_Trot123]

Anywhere in the port area that’s good to watch the football? 

[RowlattsFox]

I know it's not very European away trip but I reckon a quiet Italian cafe/bar would be ideal tonight  

 

I really hope those out there are sensible enough to not get carried away but history tells me probably not

This thread

 

Find a quiet cafe/restaurant for now and take some tins back to your place for later.

Covid ruled me out but I was booked to stay in Chiaia area of the city. 
 

Spoke to fans who’ve been before with Liverpool and Arsenal including people who go watch Napoli and they generally say Chiaia and Vomero are better areas/safer. The well off locals live in that area. 
 

I’ve just googled Chiaia pubs and Vomero pubs; plenty available. In Italy, you generally don’t find ‘pubs’. It’s bars with plenty of good food. They are also empty until about 9 at night. 

[Guest TamworthFoxes]

They are out looking for us tonight. Just bumped into a load them.

Be on high alert lads.

[ShayBeeby]

In saint James pub…. Decent if a few lads join it’s the spot

[UniFox21]

From what we saw in previous away days, I'd be careful posting where you'll be etc any Napoli fan wanting to cause trouble could easily be looking here
