Οι Γερμανοί τελικά έχουν χιούμορ…

…η σιχαμένη/ξενέρωτη ΟΥΕΦΑ όμως δεν έχει.

NYON, Switzerland (AP) – European soccer’s governing body has barred Bayern Munich fans from displaying a Monty Python-inspired banner at a Champions League match because it could offend visiting fans from the Italian club AS Roma.

The Union of European Football Association says the banner saying “Romani ite domum” – Latin for “Romans Go Home” – supporters wanted to display at Wednesday’s match was considered provocative.

The slogan references a scene in the movie comedy Monty Python’s “Life of Brian.” UEFA did approved the German fans displaying a “Life of Bayern” flag at the Allianz Arena.

In a statement, UEFA says: “Anything that may cause offense to a fan base or ethnic group, and therefore pose a security risk, including banners or symbols, is carefully vetted.”
