New debate about pyro penalties: FCM against higher fines!

While some politicians, like the CSU politician Joachim Herrmann, speak out for stricter measures because they are concerned about security in the stadiums, there are also numerous voices that are pronounced for relaxation of the regulations. Herrmann has already stimulated drastic measures, including personalized tickets and spectator exclusions to curb the pyrotechnic incidents.

FCM remains with a traditional line

The 1st FC Magdeburg, an association that has often been addressed in the past against the high penalties for pyro actions, adheres to his critical attitude. Last season the association had to pay almost 300,000 euros to the DFB, and for the coming season, punishments of 70,000 euros have already been incurred.

In the run -up to the conference, a position paper was sent to the 36 clubs of the DFL, in which 13 clubs stimulate a reform of the penalty catalog. Instead of only evaluating the number of founded pyrotechnic objects, the risk potential of this pyrotechnics should also be taken into account in the future in order to enable a differentiated assessment and corresponding penalties.

among the clubs that stand up for this reform are well -known clubs such as Hansa Rostock, Schalke 04, Borussia Dortmund and Hamburger SV. Nevertheless, the 1. FC Magdeburg remains reserved and does not actively campaign for a redesign of the current rules, despite the strong pressure on other sides.

The persistent discussions show how demanding the balance between security concerns and the needs of fans in football is. While some are pleading for fateful punishments, there are more and more voices that demand more sustainable and sensible use of the topic. The challenges are clear: How can you get the world of experience in the stadium without endangering security?
