Embarrassing, this is how football fans are treated every week end in France. The gov chooses the easy way out everytime with the ban of fans even for fixtures with low to no risk of riots or incidents, no real rivalry or tensions between clubs
Football / Soccer / Calcio / Futebol / Fußball
I genuinely couldn't imagine a more violent fixture in western europe, both sets of fans are absolute scum lol
Ajax supporters don't really stab / murder people. The stabbing happens in France / Italy a lot.
Millwall, Lazio, Praha just to name a few.
Not to forget Feyenoord.
Wouldn't be too concerned about Millwall if they visited Amsterdam. But i don't think Ajax have thr most violent fans in Europe. Our ultras are not angels but compared to a few others in Europe it's not that bad.
Groningen vs Saint-Etienne
Groningen? 😅
Your club is just copying them from last season (minus the relegation): https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=7j6kFgL4Zf8 😂
We are not angels, but a little bit self reflection is needed after they allowed Marseille fans to bombard the Lyon coach (injuring him), and teambus with stones.
It’s ok though, after investigating themselves, everyone concluded they did their job correctly.
The game will be (re-)played in Marseille as if nothing happened. No sanctions no blames. All good.
Actually something did happen: they banned Lyon fans from going and recommended to use better fortified buses... Basically Lyon's fault!

That sounds like an Onion article headline
You expected something else from French bureaucracy? Anything they can do to not actually have to do anything
🏅
French are at it again
From the bottom of my heart. Fuck the French police.
We host the Olympics. It will be awful security wise.
Our fans haven't been that violent in Europe recently, right?
They trashed our own stadium and forcefully suspended league games, but I can't remember any outstanding act of violence abroad for at least a decade.
Tbh that isn’t 100% true, but yeah not that much. But the general consensus is Ajax=Dutch=Bad
Tbh in the long run it’s probably saved your fans getting beaten up by the French police for no reason
Beaten and tear gassed for no reason. As is tradition.
True, you gotta be a bit mad going to Marseille away.
This is a good thread. No one is taking the bait from the police and Ajax fans aren't denying we have some issues.
Good shit lads.
bit ironic aint it considering how bad France is getting with hooliganism in their fan bases.
When is the last time you heard French supporters make trouble away?
Marseille, the mickey mouse fans of Europe.
French police pretending to care about the safety of Marseille fans
Lol, actual lol
The French are so civil
Our police is just shit. There were issues with some Dutch fans on away games but it's also up to the authorities to make sure things go well when they come.
This is a total embarrassment, combined with the scandals surrounding the French police with far-right policemen, some who murder people without facing consequences, domestic abuse, lack of hiring, etc. A complete rebuilding of the police institution is needed
Lol
Don't take it personally Ajax bros, it's the excuse used weeks in weeks out by our incompetent authorities to justify the ban on traveling fans. Infuriating but it really says more about Marseille and french authorities than it says about you.
Whether it's ajax or any other team it's always like that anyway, our fans complain every time about away fans restrictions but apart from AEK fans we can't have anyone come close to us without the most stupid behaviour coming out, doesn't even matter who started what, the reality is there's always a small group of fans who's too dumb to just go watch a game and behave. I don't have much love for the police and their awful organisation but I can somewhat understand why they'd rather avoid having visitors if they can.
What Marseille fans did to Lyon's bus don't make a strong case for them, but it has mostly been French authorities taking the easy route.
Instead of deploying and organizing themselves to secure a safe environment for travelling fans, whoever they are, they just straight up ban them so it's easier for them, don't even need to bother.
And then when you have the UCL final, you have no clue how to manage fans.
Come to think about it, the French police aren't so different from my country (Indonesia). They're too lazy to think about solving the problems properly and they just ban things (and people).
Classic French Police BS.
How about that Lyon bus?
Lyon were punished for that one.
TLdR;
I’m not locked in here with you. You’re locked in here with me!
-Ajax fans
-French Police Department
So the French police have managed to pre-emptively blame fans for violence that hasn't even happened yet.
Ajax fans have surpassed Liverpool fans in the "French police trying to blame you" stakes. Liverpool fans got blamed for shit they were the victims of. Ajax fans just got blamed for shit in the future
People here acting surprised. Every single time Dutch fan travel for away EU game, they just sack cities and attack random people.
Good decision, maybe Dutch police will do a little bit more to actually prevent the most violent supporters to travel.
Nothing new from this ghetto ass club (referring to Ajax, not anyone else).
