"On 12. December, the league must unanimously adopt a security concept and then implement it in all clubs," emphasized lower saxony's interior minister uwe schunemann (CDU) on the fringes of the interior ministers' conference in rostock. Otherwise, she said, countries are forced to deploy additional police to ensure safety at stadiums. "And we will have to charge for that," said schunemann.<\/p>\n
North rhine-westphalia's head of department ralf jager (SPD) also warned: "the DFL members' meeting on 12. December is well advised to decide on its approach." this one still has some bugs, but is going in the right direction. This includes the clubs doing more for fan work, ensuring that fans are accompanied to away games, or increasing security in the stadiums with additional controls. "Our goal is to preserve this fan culture, these great experiences on saturday afternoons. And that's why we have a common interest in getting the 0.5 percent of violent offenders out of the stadiums," jager said. But if the clubs continued to pull, the interior ministers had to act. <\/p>\n
The already revised "safe stadium experience" concept meets with resistance from some league clubs, but especially from fans. Supporters had made their criticism clear with silent protests at recent national league games. They oppose, among other things, stricter admission controls and more video surveillance.<\/p>\n
The chairman of the conference of interior ministers and head of the department of schwerin, lorenz caffier (CDU), made it clear that the ministers were not backing down from their demands and rejected accusations by league president reinhard rauball that politics was interfering too much. "This is already a piece of the madhouse", said caffier. "If the clubs and the league were able to ensure security, we didn't have to think about police intervention," the CDU politician explained. He pointed out that pyrotechnics were still entering stadiums and that intensive admission checks had recently revealed knives, batons and irritant gas. "Things that don't belong in the stadium."<\/p>\n
Bavaria's minister joachim herrman (CSU) also defended the policy's tough stance. "Violent confrontations on the sidelines of football games have increased dramatically, we have a lot more people injured today," herrmann noted. The leaders of the german soccer league (DFL) and the german soccer federation (DFB) are on the move. "We need these controls. Above all, we need a clear outing of all those who engage in violence, and also long-term stadium bans," he emphasized. It must also be clear that "fireworks and bengalos have absolutely no place in a stadium.<\/p>\n
On friday, the ministers' meeting will take a final look at the issue. But schunemann already made it clear: "this conference will send out a clear signal that action must be taken. We will not wait any longer."<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
