In the second half, the fans in the Fiffi-Gerritzen curve unfurled a banner that many spectators may not have recognized at first glance. “Alle Cinque al Artusi Bar” was written on it. It is a kind of solidarity address.
The recipient was the Artusi Bar on Hammer Strasse. There are a few planters with vines in front of it, right on the bike path. They have not only been there for a few days, but for several years. Now the regulator has identified a problem. The vines have to go away.
There should be a grace period of a few days, but no solution so far. The members of the Fiffi-Gerritzen-Curve (often to be found in the neighborhood) have declared their solidarity with the banner.
The (Italian) statement on the banner was an invitation to appear at the bar in the followingnoon to show the flag. At the same time, the curve managed to accommodate a well-known “greeting” in the direction of the police (“ACAB”). Regulatory office, police, the main thing is Italy or something.
A second banner later went to René Gerritzen, one of the three sons of club legend Fiffi Gerritzen. He died on August 19 at the age of 67 and there was a last greeting from the curve.
