I work at Maestro's in St Anne's Square here in Manchester. We Italians don't sing. First of all I cannot sing, and secondly we're too busy shouting, pushing our players and giving our views to whoever is sitting next to us to have any time to sing. Like football fans all over the world, we're just as excitable. We're chanting, we're shouting and egging on our team.
'And then he misses again, come on! When we needed to score', we'll shout. When a player gets a ball near the post or he saves and it's exciting, we're liable to say anything like, 'Give the ball, give the ball! Head it, head it, get on your feet you stupid idiot!'
I've always liked football and I've been in England 27 years but when I was over in Italy, I used to hear about English football and always associate England with the Beatles. In the seventies it was Liverpool who were the top team, so when I came here one of the first things I did was go to Anfield. I've remained a Liverpool fan ever since despite the fact that I live in the city of Manchester. It's not easy but I can handle it!
