Ban Red Star Belgrade from all European competitions
Das Problem
Growing up, football was always a passion. It has the power to unite people, bridge differences, and create lasting bonds. But what happens when this beautiful game becomes a platform for hate and violence? For many fans of European football, this question hits close to home when watching matches involving Red Star Belgrade.
In recent years, Red Star Belgrade has become infamous for the aggressive and often violent behaviour of some of its supporters. Incidents of racism, xenophobia, and violent conduct have occurred in and around the stadiums, marring the spirit of the sport. Reports highlight numerous occasions where extremist groups have used matches to propagate their hateful ideologies, turning what should be a joyous occasion into one filled with fear and hostility.
Football governing bodies, like UEFA, have a responsibility to uphold the integrity of the sport. Letting teams like Red Star Belgrade participate in European competitions sends the wrong message—it tells the world that such behaviour is acceptable, ignored, or swept under the rug. This can't continue.
A study by Fare Network, an organisation committed to tackling inequality in football, reported a surge of discriminatory incidents in Eastern European football venues. This trend is not isolated, and the problem is exacerbated when prominent teams seem immune to disciplinary action.
The solution is clear and actionable. UEFA should impose a ban on Red Star Belgrade's participation in all European competitions until there is significant evidence of cultural change. This ban would pressure both the club and its supporters to implement long-lasting reforms.
We ask UEFA to take immediate action to preserve the sanctity of football and to ensure that it remains a unifying force rather than a divisive one. Football is for everyone, regardless of race, religion, or nationality. Let's protect the game we love by standing against those who seek to destroy its essence.
Your voice matters. Let UEFA know that there is no place for hate in football. Join us in demanding accountability and real change. Please sign this petition and help us reclaim the beautiful game.
