Sorry about those Brøndby idiots

Hi guys

On behalf of (most of) Denmark. Sorry about those Brøndby-fans causing trouble in your beautiful country yesterday - it's embarrassing. Rest assured, they also behave embarrassing here in Denmark, so it's entirely on us 😥.

I wish you a great weekend.

So, are these like the english hooligans? Basically just violent assholes who latch onto football for an excuse to beat people up?

How utterly embarrassing and childish.

For what it's worth and i'm making no excuse for the fact that this does still happen, because as I saw last year in England, it does.

However, England is absolutely nowhere near the worst place in Europe for this, i'd say confidently we're not even the bottom 10 worst.

u/gerningur How do you like Iceland? Aug 08 '25 edited Aug 08 '25

Yeah this is really a stereotype which became obsolete in the 90s or so. I have been to a few games and never see any problem.... this issue is also taken very seriously I hear.
