Würzburg Kickers: Home Games in Silence Following Pyro Incidents
Following Pyro incidents: Würzburger Kickers encounter deserted stadium - Post-Pyro Incident, Würzburg Kickers Perform before an Empty Stadium.
Looks like the Würzburg Kickers are gonna play their home games on the down-low, yo. This decision comes as a direct response to the chaos that ensued during the Regionalliga match against 1. FC Schweinfurt. The game, which ended with a 2:1 win for the hosts, saw Würzburg's fans going wild with some seriously dicey pyro-tech.
The Bavarian Football Association (BFV) ain't playin' around with this crap. They announced the Kickers will have to play their home games spectator-free for now. Appeals can be made, but they ain't gonna put a hold on the ban. The BFV wants to make a statement and protect the peace-lovin' fans.
The game at Schweinfurt's Sachs Stadium got real intense in the final phase, with Würzburg fans lighting up and lobbing fireworks. The Association's legal advisor said point deductions and stadium bans are on the table in the main proceedings, considering these incidents as major fan misconduct and a clear breach of stadium discipline.
But the Würzburg team ain't havin' it. They plan to appeal the spectator ban, believin' their own moves already ensured a safe and responsible home game. They feel collective sanctions ain't fair since they punish fans who always behave just fine.
The Association does acknowledge that the ban on spectators affects peaceful fans. They claim they had no other choice to make a strong statement and protect the peace-loving masses.
The Kickers' bigwigs had previously spoken out against the pyro incidents caused by their own fans, disavowing them and vowing to unmask the culprits. They called the whole scene "unacceptable" and "over the line".
