Jansson to attack the police

On Wednesday, Sirius will host IFK Norrköping in the Allsvenskan. On Tuesday night, Sirius announced that the police decided to ban banners and transparencies on the stands in the match. This despite the appeal and contradiction on the part of Sirius.

“Banners, transparencies and similar objects (in the form of pieces of cloth or other material) that can be used to facilitate masking may be brought into the arena only if it takes place before the audience is released and the object is placed on the front edge of the grandstand.” decision according to an article on Sirius’ website.

The ban comes without warning, according to Sirius, who writes that no ban on banners and flags was discussed at the latest reconciliation meeting with the police authority.

“Sirius Football has a hard time understanding the motivation behind this condition (banning banners and transparencies). As a club, we have been clear that collaboration and dialogue should be the basis for the development of our events at Studenternas. It therefore feels very sad that it “The ambition is not to take root with the Police Authority. Our hope is that the ongoing work, to develop a model that replaces the working model Conditional Ladder, lands in a greater collaboration between authorities and organizers where any measures do not take place on a collective basis.”, writes Sirius in a statement.

Midfielder Pontus Jansson, who has made himself known for taking a stand on grandstand issues, does not understand the decision.

“What a hell of a crash. What are the elves on high posts? There are really no requirements anymore…”, he writes on Twitter.

Sirius goalkeeper David Mitov Nilsson announced with a “God…” his dissatisfaction with the decision on Twitter. When the Football Channel reaches him, he develops his thoughts.

– It was more that you sat on the couch and sighed. It feels like it’s not a problem, but that they (the police) make it a problem. I personally think it’s sick boring. When you see the flags waving and the banners that support the team… you know that the fans have spent hours doing nice tifos and then everything will be scrapped. I do not know why, he says to Fotbollskanalen.

Mitov Nilsson continues:

– It also becomes very illogical that the club without warning receives the news when you have just had a meeting and nothing similar has been mentioned. This is how it is dropped the day before the match. They sit before each match and have a dialogue about the events. It’s not very difficult to bring it up every now and then.

How do you see the decision coming without warning in this case?
– It’s a shame, because it only hinders the disappointment and irritation that exists against the condition ladder and other things that inhibit rather than promote football. The grandstand culture is an important part of football and you want to see more of it, you do not want it to disappear. If everything is to ban masking, should we ban hooded jackets and hoodies as well?

– All matches I have been here, I have seen zero problems. They want to emphasize that it should be fun to go to football and support Sirius. I have not experienced any trouble either on the floor or in the stands, so I take the message with a big sigh. It’s just boring. Then I can not answer whether it facilitates the work for the police, but I have a hard time seeing that this contributes to something positive for the sake of football. It just feels illogical, concludes Mitov Nilsson.

What a damn crash then. What are the elves on high posts? Are there really no requirements anymore .. https://t.co/Cy8AtUmiIx
