Marseille v Lyon match abandoned due to Lyon bus being smashed, coach bloodied


Recommended Posts

Was just getting sat down to watch this legendary "Olympic Derby" and it wasn't coming on. Then it came on and the commentator said something about the Lyon  manager being assaulted? What the fuck?

Two week ago, Ajax v Feyenoord was abandoned due to a firework being thrown onto the pitch when Feyenoord were 0-3 up at half time.

Football fans are getting insane. There will be a clampdown soon in the runup to Euro 2024 in Germany, I guarantee it. Israel's cancelled qualifiers against Kosovo, Andorra are being played soon and they play Romania in a crucial match as originally scheduled.

Saw some woman with a loud as fuck amplifier at St Nicholas Square on Saturday going on about the war and folk with Palestinian flags everywhere. Fuck me, it's Aberdeen. Scotland, nowt to do with.

Fucking shit show.

"Nine arrests have been made.

However, it's unlikely the attack will lead to disciplinary sanctions against nine-time French champions Marseille. The attack took place outside the Velodrome stadium, meaning responsibility lies with public authorities and not with the club. The case has been taken over by a French league committee in charge of scheduling competitions, and not by the discipline commission."

Absolutely crazy. Obviously, this rivalry is one of the biggest in the world, the matches are always great, but this level of insanity has to stop at football or the authorities will just come down hard on the clubs and "fans".
