Wesley Sneijder was spotted in the stadium during FC Den Bosch matches in recent weeks, but according to it Brabants Dagblad the former midfielder is actually not allowed to enter stadiums. He has been banned from accommodation following misconduct against the arbitration on October 3 at the Achilles Veen – DHSC (4-1) match, the newspaper said.
Sneijder is a lender of DHSC and supports the technical staff of the amateur club. After the game on October 3, DHSC ‘with Wesley Sneijder in front’ showed itself to be a bad loser. It Brabants Dagblad wrote at the time that referee Harold van de Ketterij was attacked up to his dressing room, partly because DHSC felt that there was an offside in a goal by Achilles Veen. In the match, Rodney Sneijder, Wesley’s brother, received a red card, he says, because he ‘laughed’; DHSC also complained about this.
So far it was not known that Sneijder had been penalized by the KNVB for his statements to the arbitration. The newspaper reports that he has an accommodation ban that will remain in effect until DHSC has played eight KNVB matches. Because the KNVB did not make the sanction public, it is unclear which clubs are aware of it. “And which attendant or steward has the desire, the courage and the power to refuse entry to the record international of the Dutch?” The newspaper wonders.
Sneijder was present on Saturday, January 23 at the match between FC Den Bosch and NAC Breda (1-1) and was also spotted on Tuesday, March 2 at the game with NEC (4-1 defeat). He was a guest of Marcel Boekhoorn, ‘for whom as a billionaire and NEC sympathizer apparently separate rules also apply’, the regional newspaper notes. Sneijder, together with trading partner Ebert Dollevoet, is a candidate to invest in Den Bosch.
