With the ultras gone there is less atmosphere yes but it’s not a bad thing. The last years the ultra’s were getting more & more racist with flags and sings. So me personally, and a lot of other fans, are happy they are gone. Club Bruges is a football club for everyone and each person & family should feel welcome at the stadion.

I agree football is and should be for everyone. I am not an advocate of racism in any form. Was purely commenting on the atmospheric aspect of the ultras and I did not know the problem ran so deep till now if truth be told.

[@Bruges_Ultras]

Linkse rat, racistische banners? De Vlaamse Leeuw ofwa? Schaam u kapot als Club supporter! Bluft achter joen TV zittn alsje ni van sfeer houd dwoazn clown

[@OnlyStandsTerraces]

To be honest I don't know the whole situation on the matter but there is a clear divide. One saying one thing and others another. In today's world what constitutes as racist I'm not even going to start to get into as nearly everything can be spun into one direction or the other.

[@boetjesodjd]

@@viciousxsam welke vlaggen en welke gezangen? Want naar mijn weet zijn er nooit racistische vlaggen geweest en gezangen ook niet buiten een lied over de joden da ALLE supporters meezingen en nooit word gestart of gezongen in de tribune

Such a shame that the ultras are banned! The atmosphere last year was much better, especially for a derby... COYB

[@OnlyStandsTerraces]

Definitely I agree. Many say there is no place in the game for them but whether your apart of them or not they play a huge part in the game

[@nosweatnoglory1891]

They are not banned 😂 It was their own choice to quit, after what happened a few weeks ago.

[@StickyJavier]

@@OnlyStandsTerraces He's completely wrong though. The atmosphere was a lot better than usual nor are all the ultras banned. About 40 "fans" were banned from the stadium for showing racist gestures after which all of their friends (who were the ultras groups) suddenly decided to not support their team anymore. Which in turn ended up in some sort of a power struggle between those "fans" and the board of Club Brugge. During the last couple of games about 1000-2000 fans decided they prefer being silent as a form of protest instead of supporting their team in a derby. And yet, the people who are actually fans of Club Brugge and not themselves, still made it an amazing atmosphere. I hope you go back and enjoy it again (and probably even more) when those "fans" decide to follow their songbook at another team.

[@OnlyStandsTerraces]

I was under the impression that a few got banned and other groups boycotted the game as a form of backing to those that got banned. I, in no way, thought the atmosphere was bad but not as I expected. I will be back that I am sure

​@@OnlyStandsTerracesin Belgium a 'derby' has a different meaning: two teams of the same city. They're not competitors or real rivals for most of the fans, coming from all places in Belgium. There's almost no tension and certainly not at the beginning of the season. I don't know if you're aware of the play-off formula in our league? The so called ultras don't make a difference in Bruges. A small group of 50 people that made some noise with a drum. Noise, not atmosphere. Keep in mind that most of the fans at the other side were cooking in the sun 😂
