30 stadium bans for FC Utrecht rioters, club finds Dijksma measure ‘disproportionate’

Municipality punishes FC Utrecht after riots match without an audience

“As previously indicated, FC Utrecht understands the fact that measures are being considered in response to the disturbances. But this punishment affects the collective and not the conscious vandals. This is at odds with what we, and with us the entire professional football community, sector,” adds general manager Thijs van Es. He says he also raised this during a conversation with the triangle, municipality, police and Public Prosecution Service.
