According to the Italian FA, this photograph of Paulo Di Canio from yesterday’s Rome derby shows him making a fascist salute – something very, very bad under Italian law. Oops.
Mind you… to me it just looks like a footballer raising his hand after scoring. Or maybe Alan Shearer is also a fascist. After all, that’s the exact celebration you get from Newcastle’s number 9 after every goal. Ever get the feeling the Italians are about as overly-sensitive about trying to rewrite (or erase) the history books as the Germans are about swastikas?
