"Leaves us baffled": HSV president backs the fans | OneFootball

At Hamburger SV, fans, board members, and team officials are currently all in agreement.

The Interior Ministry's plan – to control and regulate fans much more strictly in the future – must not take place in this manner.

"We align ourselves with HSV board members Eric Huwer and Stefan Kuntz and wish for the involvement of all parties before decisions are made at the political level," appealed HSV President Henrik Köncke and Supporters' Chief Sven Freese in a statement today, further emphasizing: "It is disconcerting to us that the Conference of Interior Ministers is currently discussing far-reaching measures behind closed doors – without the involvement of the clubs, without the involvement of the fans, and without the transparency that makes successful security work possible in the first place."

Like all ultra groups of Bundesliga clubs, the Hamburg fans stopped their support for twelve minutes during yesterday's game in Augsburg.

From December 3rd to 5th, the Interior Ministry plans to decide on tougher fan measures. Whether clubs will be involved in the process by then remains unclear. What is certain: At HSV, everyone is currently pulling together.
