Empire Police Chief Biggus Piggus has tonight called for the owners of teams in the SuperLeague to "act more responsibly" heading into the final rounds of this season's Serie A championship. Chief Piggus was speaking after confirming that 4 police officers were seriously injured this afternoon in clashes with supporters of Legoland FC. The supporters were celebrating their team's 3-0 win over Marino.

"There are a number of high tension fixtures coming up and I would appeal directly to all club owners not to inflame feelings. I understand that clubs can have very different opinions on many matters but in the interests of public health and safety I would advise that these be kept under wraps, at least until the final curtain is drawn on this season's fixtures".

Earlier today a new war of words broke out between Parma, LFC and Legoland United over comments made by Torino manager Victor Selvaraj, which could lead to more violence according to commentators. In the latest round of bickering, Parma owner Mr Jon Voi called LFC "pathetic" whilst shortly afterwards Legoland United released an offical club statement declaring that they were in "full agreement with the sentiment expressed by Parma AC".

Parma's comments are likely to infuriate many fans of the Cartel and with the club hosting LFC on the final day of the campaign, in a game that is likely to decide the destination of the title, the potential for serious trouble is considered extremely high. With this in mind, it is expected that the authorities will draft in over a 100 additional police officers for the fixture in one of the biggest security operations of the year.
