Milan derby, when Inter fans protested against the red shirt

The fans of the “Curva Nord” lashed out in 2012 against the new Inter second shirt, completely red, and sent a strong letter to Moratti: “A real punch in the eye and another in the stomach to leave you breathless”

In the last few hours on social media, Milan fans have taken sides against the pre-match kit with a reference to Inter’s club colours.

Yet it is not the first time that one of the two Milan fans protests over the clothing of their team. It also happened in the summer of 2012, when the “Curva Nord” invited people not to buy the red away shirt, because red is the color of Milan.

The warm heart of the Nerazzurri fans sent a letter to president Massimo Moratti.

Here is the text: “We thought we had seen everything. Footballers with Lotto numbers on their backs, games played on Fridays or at midday…We accepted everyone for our colours, black and blue. Until a scientist finally gave birth to his Nobel Prize winning idea: the FC Internazionale second shirt for the 2012/2013 season will be entirely red. A real punch in the eye and another in the stomach that will leave you breathless. Perhaps the creator of this genius was suddenly catapulted to earth by Saturn, for not knowing that red is the prerogative of another team. Evidently he never showed up at the stadium during a derby. For us, the red on the shirt should only appear combined with the green and to white to certify the Italian champion team or, as in the case of the centenary, to represent, yes, the colors of the flag of our city with a cross superimposed on the white. We invite Inter fans not to purchase this garment and not show up at the stadium, neither in the corner nor elsewhere”.
