Boss Fischer speaks of “idiot shit” |
Scandal at Eintracht’s Supercup party!
Big trouble at Eintracht’s own fan festival before the Supercup cracker against Real Madrid (9 p.m. in the live ticker) in Helsinki!
President Peter Fischer (66) got into a fight with a Frankfurt fan from the stage: “I’ll have you thrown out of here now. I’m tired of this idiot shit. You just never come to the stadium again, what do you want here?”
Fischer had previously made it clear in his speech that after the recent incidents, Eintracht should no longer allow hardcore fans and ultras to misstep. Otherwise there is a risk of ghost games in the Champions League! The fan then repeatedly interrupted Fischer from the crowd with shouts.
“Yesterday I sat at the table of the UEFA President, who said very clearly: I have great sympathy for you, you have made a great journey. But if shit happens to you, then it’s called a ghost game in Frankfurt,” said Fischer about the meeting with Aleksander Ceferin on Tuesday evening in Helsinki.
The President continues: “The ghost game is not about me – there are ten places and I have one of them.”
Of course, Eintracht wants to prevent ghost games. After the anthem scandal and storming at the start of the league against Bayern (1: 6), the club has already announced that it will take tough action against the chaos.
Even after entering the Europa League final, there was a pitch storm in Frankfurt after beating West Ham. That’s another reason why Uefa has its sights set on Eintracht.
Fischer visibly moved: “I want to experience the Champions League together with you. I want to show our opponents what we can do and what we stand for. I can never sell a ghost game again, ever!”
