Inter Milan Supporters Plan Silent Protest Against Club
Tension is mounting among Inter Milan fans as they express their discontent with the club’s recent decisions. The dedicated supporters, particularly those in the Curva Nord section, have announced plans to protest by remaining silent for the first 20 minutes of upcoming matches.
The primary reasons for this protest are twofold. Firstly, fans are upset about the significant increase in ticket prices, especially for high-profile matches against teams like Feyenoord and Bayern Munich. Secondly, they object to new restrictions that limit their ability to create elaborate choreographed displays in the stands, which have long been a tradition for passionate Inter supporters.
In a statement released by the organized fan groups, they expressed frustration over months of what they perceive as repression and unreasonable prohibitions. The supporters claim they have been banned from displaying banners and flags, and prevented from organizing any choreographed performances in the stadium.
The fan statement reads in part: “After months of enduring these restrictions without explanation, we have decided it’s time to voice our dissent. Starting from the next match, we will observe 20 minutes of silence at the beginning of each game as a form of protest.”
This move by the Inter Milan ultras highlights the growing tension between passionate football supporters and club management over issues of fan expression and the commercialization of the sport. The protest aims to send a clear message to the club about the importance of maintaining the traditional atmosphere and fan culture at matches.
