Crystal Palace fans, alongside Liberal Democrat representatives, staged a protest outside UEFA headquarters, demanding better treatment for supporters. The demonstration comes amid growing frustration over the governing body's policies.
Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy has publicly criticised UEFA, calling for immediate reforms to address the concerns raised by football fans across the UK. "The voices of supporters must be heard," Nandy stated.
Why Are Fans Protesting?
The protest was organised following a series of incidents where Crystal Palace supporters felt unfairly targeted by UEFA regulations. Fans argue that excessive restrictions and heavy-handed enforcement are damaging the matchday experience.
Political Backing
The Liberal Democrats have thrown their weight behind the campaign, with party members joining the demonstration. A spokesperson said, "Football is nothing without its fans, and UEFA must recognise that."
As tensions rise, the spotlight remains on UEFA to respond to the growing backlash from both supporters and political figures.
