The UBs are just the current "young team" who are using the current "fads" to support their team.

 

Soon they'll be "overtaken" by the next generation.

Bill The Butcher is popular with a few Ultras groups.  Here are Milan's Curva Sud lads with one of their flags depicting him, are they doing it because they're anti-Catholic...

Agreed. I'm not an expert but Bill the Butcher was a nativist (see the Milan group using the same word meaning) who was intent on protecting the interests of native-born or 'established inhabitants' against those of immigrants, in this case Irish catholics during the great famine, but I think that's largely incidental.

However, it could have been used by Milan Ultras (I don't know) to demonstrate their status as the true natives of Milan, since they were founded before their rivals. 

Think it shows great creativity and intimidation by a group that self-find these great Tifos and displays, and should be allowed to create what they like within the law. What do that other mob do? Childish effigies and offensive and unlawful banners. Glad we don't stoop so low.
