Success for Bayern Munich fans - Club
Nr.12 one of our partner associations in the Eurofans
project have had a major success with European ticketing. Originally
Bayern fans were told that no tickets would be made available for their
Champions League game in Rotterdam due to the home fans hooliganism
problems. After an organised protest at the Super Cup and representations
by Club Nr.12, Bayern
fans have now been told tickets will be made available.
The guaranteed availability of away European tickets and the right
to travel independently are two of the main aims of the Euofans project.

United Colours of Football (3) fanzine and National Anti-Racist Week
ILSA has been asked to pass on this message:
I am writing to give you advance notice of the National Anti-Racist
Week (in football), which will take place from 11 October to the 21
October 2001 - an eleven day 'week' due to the new TV arrangements,
so enabling all clubs to have the opportunity to include activities
at a home game. It also falls within Black History Month.
Activities will take place at football clubs, amongst fans, community
groups, schools and youth groups. Why not organize some activities through
your fanzine, with your ISA, supporter's trust, or at your club?You
could, for example:
- Help distribute a new United Colours of Football 3 fanzine outside
your local club
- Produce your own anti-racist leaflet,
- Get involved in running community activities, for example, a 5-a-side
competition,
- Make an anti-racist statement inside a stadium such as holding up
placards or messages at a match.
- Display the History of Black Footballers Exhibition during the week
(free of charge)
A 'Community Chest¹ of £400 has been set aside to be offered
to 30 groups of fans, community groups or schools who wish to organise
their own activities locally. To apply simply e-mail an outline of your
idea to Kick It Out at info@kickitout.org.
'Football Unites, Racism Divides' (FURD)
is helping to produce the latest 'United Colours of Football' (3) fanzine,
and we are currently inviting contributions, in particular from individual
fans and fanzines. It could be a new piece of writing or something that
has appeared in a fanzine in the past 12 months. If you have anything,
then please e-mail FURD resources worker Ruth Johnson on ruth@furd.org.
Please obtain the agreement from the authors of any contributions which
you may submit.

LFC
almost announce loyalty scheme .... Liverpool have started collecting
names and addresses from fans buying tickets for Bolton away. An addendum
to the ticket info on the official website suggested this information
was needed for an intended loyalty scheme next season. Questions have
already arisen from fans with Ticket Office staff only taking the names
of those buying the tickets on multiple purchases - the question is
should we buy our away tickets on an individual basis? The info has
since disappeared from the LFC website.
