Wow definitely nothing they did to antagonise the situation at all!

There’s a lot more clips like this, including burning Palestinian flags and charging (seemingly) peaceful protestors. It’s a shit show and the police have a lot to answer for

I've been watching this all day on the news and via radio.
I think I can honestly say that Amsterdam and the Ajax fans were the friendliest of all the teams we played in Europe.
Shared metro trains to and from the ground. My disabled mate was taken through the home stand and no problems. A great welcome from those in the town. What was it, 6000+ Albion in town and I didn't see or hear any problems, even when we beat them. The after party in the centre went perfectly.
So I say to all the press, stop mentioning football. It may well have been a segment of the Maccabi fans who went looking for trouble, the same as a small contingent of Amsterdam idiots may have thought the same. But it was not football fans fighting football fans.

I don’t know how many times it needs to be said but it absolutely wasn’t anything to do with Ajax or any football fans for that matter.

It beggars belief that Israeli teams are allowed to participate in European tournaments

Agree about reputation but not every fan following a club is an ultra and I suspect it's often the non violent ones that get targeted.

This is rarely ever the case the elements of clubs want to fight the other elements of clubs who are into violence.
Occasionally it happens but that’s not really the name of the game to pick on a scarfer so to speak and would be frowned upon.

There's a lot of unjustifiable violence in there but also a fair smattering of "f***ed around and found out".

 

[Greenbag50]

Agree with the last bit. Absolutely sick of the middle east and their horrendous never ending wars.

Having read both sides seems like both sets of fans as bad as each other !!

Strangely daily mail ran a story attributing more blame to tel aviv fans

Israeli football thugs tear down Palestine flags in Amsterdam

Videos show dozens of hooded figures dressed fully in black cheering and cnahting 'f*** you Palestine' and 'ole' as one climbed halfway up the front of a building and removed a flag.

You're a football fan !! You know Tel Aviv have a rep. They were causing trouble all day in Amsterdam before the game, smashing up taxis and scuffling with taxi drivers. What did you think was gonna happen.... The other side would just take it lying down.

The reporting of this is quite scarily one sided ..... You've even got biden jumping on the bandwagon now.

Bizarre

Should be banned until they leave the occupied territories. No better than Russia IMO.

You’re quite Clearly suiting your own agenda, surprise, surprise the same people have turned up again and completely made it about themselves, as they do on every thread about this subject.

A bunch of notorious fascist hoolies being made out to be Anne Frank by world leaders. I've never seen such an industrial scale of lying in all my life, every day brings new record highs of screaming bullshit, all to defend tens of thousands of Palestinian families being shredded alive
