FSE - Football Supporters Europe’s Tweets

Fans at the Champions League final bear no responsibility for tonight’s fiasco. Thousands are still trapped outside the stadium, remaining calm in the face of a completely unreasonable situation. We urge the relevant authorities to ensure the safety of all fans.

📣 ICYMI: FSE is calling for the blanket ban on away fans at UEFA club competitions to be lifted. ❌ Football fans shouldn’t be subject to specific exclusions, which amount to a form of unequal treatment. 🔗 Read more: bit.ly/2UOe4Dl

📣 The decision to ban #Rangers fans from travelling to Lyon is an unacceptable restriction on freedom of movement & blatantly illegal. 🇫🇷 Together with , we have filed an emergency proceeding with the French Administrative Supreme Court.
Quote Tweet
Un arrêté préfectoral limite à 2.000 supporters des Rangers le déplacement à Lyon. Manifestement, le ministre n'a lu que le titre "interdiction" et non l'article 2 "jauge à 2.000". Donc le ministre va publier, la veille du match, un arrêté d'interdiction totale.

Game over. Fan activism works. But we must guard against any return to the status-quo. 1️⃣ The wreckers must be held to account. 2️⃣ All this must be used as a springboard from which to launch a root & branch reform of the entire game. #NoToEuropeanSuperLeague

Manchester City have withdrawn from the European Super League and Chelsea are also preparing to do so. Chelsea and Man City were not drivers of this plan, they were the last to sign and feared being left behind. Full story ⤵ #bbcfootball

🇫🇷 After destroying its identity & engaging in a constant war with fans, #Bordeaux’s owners have pulled out of the club, leaving it on the brink of bankruptcy. 📣 Robust regulation is needed immediately to prevent these vultures from ruining any more of our community assets.

We are appalled by 's decision to team up with , a company that monetises fan engagement at the expense of match-going fans. This is an incomprehensible move at a time when football needs protection from crypto-mercenaries.

An announcement that will concern fans - UEFA selling fan engagement now through Socios cryptocurrency fan tokens as a means of supporters getting access to "VIP trips to UEFA Season Kick-Off Events, the chance to visit UEFA's HQ, virtual meet-and-greets with UEFA legends"

1/4 The Newcastle takeover is yet another example of how football allows states with some of the worst human rights records to use it as a geopolitical & sportswashing tool. The game as a whole must reflect on why it has become so attractive to authoritarian regimes.

Amnesty International has urged the Premier League to change its owners' and directors' test "to address human rights issues". It comes as Newcastle United moved closer to a Saudi Arabian-led takeover. #nufc #bbcfootball

This unprecedented alliance between a club and public authorities to ban away supporters is a worrying development. We remind Italian authorities of their duty to protect supporters’ fundamental rights. Solidarity with all fans impacted by this shameful decision.

After Italian public authorities' recent decision to ban Feyenoord fans in Rome, French authorities have just announced a ban of FC Basel supporters two days before their game in Nice. A terrible week for supporters’ rights & freedom of movement in Europe.

💰| This is not only the highest price ever paid by MU fans, but most likely an all-time record for an away ticket in a competition. We are liaising with and on the matter. Quick reminder: it’s the clubs that are loaded, not their fans...
Quote Tweet
The €120 Barça are charging MUFC fans for Camp Nou is the most expensive ticket in MU's history outside of a final. MUFC will now increase cost of Barça's tickets at OT to €120...and use difference to subsidise ticket prices for travellers to Camp Nou down to £75.

🗣| Yesterday, Spain followed the lead of Italy by announcing that the Supercopa will be held in Saudi Arabia. Taking the competition away from the fans & awarding it to a dictatorship is yet another example of football’s ignorance when it comes to human rights.
Quote Tweet
Today’s mass execution of 37 people in Saudi Arabia is a chilling demonstration of the authorities' disregard for human life. It is yet another gruesome indication of how the death penalty is being used as a political tool to crush dissent. amnesty.org/en/latest/news
