Generali Arena Austria Vienna Police
In Favoriten, angry fans are currently protesting in front of the Vienna Austria stadium. The police are on site with a large number.
The purple appendix protests against the board level of the “violets”. Austria had not been awarded the Bundesliga license in the first instance. The Viennese now have until April 21 to submit further documents in order to receive the game permit. Otherwise, the 110-year-old traditional club is threatened with bankruptcy.
Above all, AG board member Markus Kraetscher is blamed on many sides for Austria's financial misery. In the past season, the Viennese wrote a minus of 18.8 million euros, the liabilities rose to 78 million euros.
As the Vienna police press office confirmed to “Heute” , there was a spontaneous rally of Austria fans on Friday around 4 pm. The situation was relaxed and peaceful around 4.30pm. Nevertheless, several emergency services were on site for security.
During the course of Friday, Austria's supervisory board and board of directors meet to find a solution to the financial problems. The meetings are held digitally, so the frustrated Austria fans do not meet the management level.
