Only 45 Napoli fans enter the away end at the Franchi
Napoli's organised supporters boycotted the trip to Florence in protest at the away-ticket rules, leaving banners rather than fans in the away end.
The away end at the Franchi was filled with banners, not supporters, for Fiorentina-Napoli on Sunday 20 September. Napoli's organised groups staged a mass boycott of the game, leaving only 45 fans inside behind a banner reading "45 inside for our colours".
Outside the ground, a second banner explained why the majority had stayed away: "The rest outside for our values..." The away end had reduced capacity, with tickets restricted to Campania residents holding a fidelity card, non-transferable, and sales closed the day before the match.

It is not the first time Napoli's ultras have responded this way to away-ticket restrictions. On the pitch, with the sections empty, Allegri's Napoli drew 1-1 with Fiorentina.
