Few suspended after scandal derby in May

Between 50 and 100 were estimated to have been involved. The Football Association’s chairman Fredrik Reinfeldt then expected that many of these would be suspended from the clubs.

“If it’s ten, it’s insufficient, if it’s a hundred, we’re approaching the number of supporters who participated,” he said last spring.

The fact that as few as six have been suspended by the clubs and four of these have also been banned from entry by the police and prosecutors, Reinfeldt deduces that legal processes are still ongoing.

He also says that even then he was completely convinced that too few would be punished “in relation to the quite large numbers who actually committed quite serious violations of order that day”, but that he stands by what he said last spring.

— Our intention is to do more.
