Göteborg, Sweden – Na big match dey happen for AIK against IFK Göteborg wey go take place this Sunday. But e no be only the boys wey we suppose carry eye go, because na the fans get serious wahala. Some kind vex dey brew as IFK supporters dey vex about where dem go sit down.
Looks like the supporters wey dey wear blue and white no too happy as dem dey put dem fans for one corner wey no too sweet for morale. Adam Carlén, wey na one of Blåvitt players, don talk say, “E go better if two big fan groups fit get one side of the pitch make them enjoy match.” (No be lie him talk, who go like de come watch match and no fit gree cheer together?)
As if sabi any mouth at all, more than 3,000 IFK fans dey prepare to travel go AIK’s ground, but dem go dey scattered like jollof wey no know where dem dey go. Majority of dem go dey for upper tier, while the rest go dey for the first floor with no gree meet dem padi fans. Wetin really dey happen for this football world? Na so dem want turn fan social distance?
“We for prefer to dey together, no be lie wey dem dey talk. I go talk say AIK too don miss am because e go sweet if all of us fit gather for one side to turn the game to show of mind,” Adrian Pihl, wey be chairman for Änglarna (the supporters club), don yarn. After all, no be today dem dey talk say fans na part of the game wey dey make am lively.
Even Adam no slow to add him voice to this matter: “If dem sabi how many fans wey dey travel, why dem no fit plan am well? Our fans deserve to dey together for good experience. Na wetin we dey do for our own home games still. AIK fans no dey put for corner when dem come to our own stadium.” (Make dem no try mouth wahala, e fit backfire o!)
Tobias Larsson, AIK communications chief, don talk say dem dey always put away fans for that place because na im dem dey find space for family fans wey dey buy season tickets. “The kids and family gats have their place, no be so?” he explain. But why dem no plan well to accommodate the away fans? Na question wey plenty of us dey ask.
Adrian no gree rest, he don say make dem prepare well for next time. “As e don be so, make all sides plan ahead wey go make own life easier for us fans. Not just for placement, but also to make sure say we fit safe home tickets on time.” (Na true talk, dem no wan make wahala dey when dem fit put heads together.)
But no matter the wahala, one thing wey dey clear be say the passion for football no fit waka for small issues like this. Fans go always find way to support their team, even if dem go dey sit dem for upstairs where leg go dey cramp. So for this coming Sunday, we just hope say everybody go find better seat and enjoy the game, and wahala no go happen. E be like say we dey look for better atmosphere, you feel me?
