The Curva Sud Venezia Mestre, the organized supporter group of Venezia FC, has announced they will not attend the upcoming away match against Fiorentina at the Artemio Franchi stadium. This decision comes in response to the limited number of tickets allocated to away supporters for the Sunday fixture.
In a statement, the ultras group explained their stance, emphasizing principles of unity and consistency. They declared, “Either all of us or none of us!” This slogan underscores their belief in collective action and solidarity among supporters.
The Curva Sud has also called upon all Venezia fans to respect their decision by refraining from displaying any banners or flags in the away section of the stadium. This request aims to present a unified front in their protest against the ticket allocation.
This development means that Eusebio Di Francesco’s Venezia side will be without the vocal support of their most ardent fans for what is considered a highly anticipated match. The absence of the Curva Sud could potentially impact the atmosphere and the level of support for the visiting team.
The ultras’ decision highlights the ongoing issues in Italian football regarding away ticket allocations and the rights of supporter groups, as well as the significant influence these organized fan groups can have on match-day experiences and club dynamics.
