FIFA said it wouldn’t use dynamic pricing for World Cup tickets. In a totally unsuprising move, its president has now openly said it will. Dynamic ticket pricing risks reduced transparency & prices ordinary fans out. 🔗 Statement with Euroconsumers: https://bit.ly/40qLNka

🇪🇺🗣️ We met with the European Commission’s Sport Unit in February to ensure supporters’ priorities remain central to the future of EU policy. 📢 We raised key issues affecting fans including dynamic ticket pricing, Multi-Club Ownership, & more. 🔗 https://bit.ly/4tXRx2v

Kalt war's..🥶

The new Council of Europe Recommendation on the use of collective bans against away football supporters is a major milestone for FSE, as it is the first time a civil-society organisation has initiated a such a recommendation. As always, the proof of the pudding will be in the eating..

FIFA's World Cup ticket prices are a betrayal to the most dedicated fans. At least $6900 to support your team from the first match to the final - nearly 5 times more than in Qatar. FSE calls for the immediate halt to ticket sales. 🔗 Statement: bit.ly/44Sqx9G

Time to put this idea to bed once and for all. #KeepFootballHome

Incredible Matt Ford work once again. 50+1 is easily the best part about German soccer, but sometimes its a fight to keep it going. Give this a read, the Leverkusen addition and the upcoming fight over exemptions will be a big thing to watch.

This is so important. If you're a member of a supporters club, make sure your group signs the declaration. We have to win this fight! #KeepFootballHome

Ich bin tief gerührt! ♥️ 80.000 Menschen in Hamburg 45.000 Menschen in Stuttgart 35.000 Menschen in Essen Und vielen anderen Städten Gegen die rechtsextreme AfD & die Handlungen von Friedrich Merz für eine Zusammenarbeit. Das ist der Aufstand der Anständigen. Morgen dann Berlin & weiteren Orten.

Was mich wirklich wütend macht? Dass der AfD-Verbotsantrag nicht gestellt wird. Verrückt. Das Grundgesetz hat uns aus sehr guten Gründen Mittel in die Hand gegeben, um die nächste Machtergreifung zu verhindern. Und es wird einfach NICHTS gemacht. Beschämend. Der Faschismus lacht laut.

Ultra groups in Germany protested against the DFB for voting in favor of handing the 2034 World Cup to Saudi Arabia. Gladbach: “1000s dead in Qatar? Let’s do the same shite again!” HSV: “Head in Infantino’s arse. Neuendorf (DFB boss) talks nonsense” Babelsberg: “SA: world champions in beheadings”

Joint Statement: Award of 2034 men’s World Cup to Saudi Arabia risks lives & exposes FIFA’s empty human rights commitments. Ronan Evain, Executive Director of Football Supporters Europe, said: "Today is a dark day for human rights and football as a whole." 1/3

FSE is recruiting!

Important thread on a topic of increasing concern to supporters. Blanket travel bans are a fundamental breach of freedom of movement principles and are often counterproductive, as fans who have bought flights and accommodation will travel anyway.

Well worth a look..
