As stated previously, Maccabi Tel Aviv’s paramount concern is for the peace and safety of the fans. As has been well publicized the police requested to postpone the punishment handed down to Hapoel Tel Aviv to a future fixture which would not hold the same degree of risk to fans. Unfortunately, this request was rejected resulting in the current situation.
Further discussions have in the meantime taken place with officials of the Police and Hapoel Tel Aviv. Additionally on Sunday morning Club officials inspected Bloomfield Stadium to see the latest measures that were taken to segregate and protect our fans.
The Club also met with fan group representatives, who gave assurances that they would not take any action that would put either themselves or the Club at risk.
In view of the additional measures which have been taken and the further discussions with the Police, Hapoel Tel Aviv and fans, we have decided to take up our allocation of tickets and shall begin sales on Tuesday, 26 September at 10am.
Maccabi Tel Aviv FC is relying on the police and security forces to take all necessary steps during the match in order to secure the safety of all the fans.
Let’s all enjoy the game.
