UEFA charge Cologne and Arsenal

[Gray]

Arsenal charged with blocked aisles in the away supporters section.

Bloody ridiculous, would anybody want to try and clear the aisles with that lot of Cologne fans that were there last night?

Did UEFA finish their statement with #Wengerout?

Agree it's ridiculous to charge them for blocked aisles but they should be charged or investigated for number of away fans in home sections. Arsenal fans tweeting last night about being surrounded by Cologne fans in homes sections. Although one did point out they were not causing any trouble and just supporting their team.

Just like Celtic at our ground last year it an acident waiting to happen .
It expensive for games now a days especialy European games .many home fans dont bother going and watch it on the box .thus freeing tickets up in the home end .the truth is Clubs dont give a shit who they sell them to as they get the cash for them

Cologne charged with their fans trying to enjoy themselves, no real trouble, mostly good natured from the videos I've seen (well worth watching).

Should have charged Arsenal for their fans impersonating a football crowd.

Ridiculous that either club are charged.

You cannot stop 20000 people travelling. In fact both sets of supporters should be congratulated for not causing trouble.

Segregation has entrenched a strange attitude in football grounds, it is as though a fan with different colours is an Alien.

Eufa out to fill coffers again

In a nutshell.

Surely Cologne should be the ones punished ... 15+ thousand fans arriving at the stadium with either fake tickets, no tickets or pushing there way in and sitting in the home end.
What if Man Utd tried that at the Etihad this year ? Same rules should apply. Punish them!

Germans occupying territory they have no right to be in? Have a vague feeling there's some sort of historical precedent for that...

The Europa league game v lech poznan at our place is the worst I've ever experienced, club gave 6,000 free tickets out to them apparently :/
