Doesn't directly relate to us at the moment but something to be aware of.
Feyenoord supporters have been banned from attending the away game in Naples, not by the club but by the 'Prefecture of Naples'.
I believe no Nice fans were allowed to buy tickets either for the qualifying round.
Both decisions were based on reputation of each clubs supporters (Feyenoord in particular had some issues in Rome 18 months ago), so in principle we should be okay. However there could be implications of 2k+ Feyenoord fans now being in Naples and not being allowed in (they will already have made travel arrangements).
I think there is a reasonable chance of crowd trouble for this and we all know UEFA love a stadium ban. Might be worth keeping an eye on this.
As someone who has already made travel arrangements, hopefully it passes without issue.
I have to say I think its an unfair decision, and having met some pretty sound Feyenoord fans last week I feel for them.
