The reporting on this has not been particularly good so far. Because it is all sensationalist. Rather than reporting on the facts.
In Jewish terms, Ajax are the Dutch equivalent of Tottenham Hotspur. They are not a Jewish club. But they have an element of traditional Jewish support. That is why they are proud to sport the nickname of "de Joden" (The Jews). The original stadium was in the Jewish district of Amsterdam. Amsterdam itself was always referred to as a "Mokum" city-which is Yiddish for "safe haven". Going back to times when there were (sadly) far fewer of those.
There were reports of some Palestinian flags being burned. No idea if that is true. But the Netherlands has seen a considerable rise in Far Right ideology. This looked planned. But by local or national Far Right groups. Not Ajax fans.
I doubt very much they were Ajax fans or even football fans, more like external agitators. From what i've seen it was a bit t1t for tat.

I think it probably was before the game. Whereas afterwards looks more sinister.
Might have been football fans-Ajax are a bit like Man Utd in that people tend to support them or dislike them.
Not like Netanyahu to be overdramatising or inflaming the situation
As an Arsenal fan I've got no sympathy (we both know the history) but as a football fan, that has gotta be one of the worse decisions I've ever seen, HTF did the Ref & Lino both miss that.

Saying this through gritted teeth The ref apologised after the match to our head coach , Narcis showed his class by saying he's fine with it and that we all make mistakes ,even he does

The thing is though Sean it doesn't give us 2 extra points and we still lose Berger for a match. I was so apoplectic that the missus came into the room because she thought I'd taken ill.
Footage allegedly showing Premier League referee David Coote labelling Liverpool 'sh*t' and calling ex-manager Jurgen Klopp a 'German c*nt' under investigation.
Professional Game Match Officials Limited, who are responsible for the officiating of games across English football, are said to be aware of the footage that has been circulating on social media – with the matter now being looked into.
The video in question appears to show Coote branding Liverpool "sh*t", shortly after filling the role of fourth official in one of their games, before going on to call ex-Reds manager Klopp a "c*nt". A statement from PGMOL reads: “PGMOL are aware of a video circulating on social media and are investigating.”

Asking for the video not to be shared.

Goodness me.
If that's kosher, & not AI or whatever, someone's in a whole lot of trouble.
