Last Sunday there was quite a lot to do about non-compliance with the corona measures during the home game of Feyenoord with FC Twente (1-1). There was a lot of fuss on social media in particular about the photos from De Kuip, which clearly showed that many people did not observe the 1.5 meter measure. Rotterdam mayor Ahmed Aboutaleb soon sent a threatening letter to Feyenoord with the demand that stricter measures be taken to combat the corona virus. Feyenoord takes the message very seriously and will issue a final warning to the supporters on Thursday.

“The message that Feyenoord has received is clear: Feyenoord and the supporters will get one last chance on Sunday (against ADO Den Haag, ed.)”, According to the appeal posted on the club site. “When things go wrong again, there is a risk of playing home games with much less or even no audience at all.” I cannot let this go, because we also act against others who do not comply with the corona measures. If this happens again, over and out with supporters in De Kuip ‘, said Mayor Aboutaleb this week in the television broadcast at Jinek. “

The Feyenoord management is not happy with the groups that emerged on Sunday in the home game with FC Twente. “For that reason, all supporters with a card for those boxes for the match with ADO Den Haag receive a letter, with the explicit request to keep a distance of one and a half meters and to help the club.” In addition, assistant trainer John de Wolf is used to urge The Legion not to make another mistake against ADO.

“Dear Feyenoord players, last weekend the corona measures did not go well in De Kuip”, the right hand of trainer Dick Advocaat opens. “So we have been warned. Sunday is our last chance. An important message, help your club and stick to the rules. Keep a distance of five feet. We want to keep playing for you and not in an empty Kuip. The club is counting on you”, said the concerned De Wolf from the training complex of Feyenoord.

“With a number of extra measures, Feyenoord is doing everything it can to ensure that the rules are followed by everyone next Sunday”, the board of the Rotterdammers added. “For example, the club deploys more than four hundred stewards, who can point out to supporters to keep sufficient distance and not to sing or shout. Anyone who violates the rules consciously runs the risk of his or her card being blocked. to take these measures, because there is a lot at stake for Feyenoord and the supporters. Playing at home in an empty stadium is something nobody wants and is also something the club cannot afford financially, “said the leadership in De Kuip.
