On Thursday evening, the supporter group Aalesund Support was informed that Aalesund football club is introducing goal music for each goal. In a Facebook post, the supporters club goes hard against their own club, four days before the start of the series against Vålerenga. – We are the ones who set the mood in the stadium. That they choose to overrun it is like pissing us supporters off, writes chairman of Aalesund Support, Ole Kristiseter, in a message to news. Sunnmørsposten has previously discussed the case. – Hårreisende The disagreement, in short, is that Aalesund wants to test goal music, i.e. the playing of a melody or song after a goal, while the supporter groups Aalesund support and Storm are strongly against it. The introduction of music has caused several sheep to rage. – The fact that it is in use at the largest arenas in Europe is not an argument we stand behind. We have a relatively small group who work their ass off to support our club. That it has to be supplemented with fake sound in the form of target music is hair-raising, Kristiseter believes.

This should not become a thing at the stadium, and hopefully the club will change its mind by Monday, he writes on Facebook. The general manager of AaFK, Ronny Stokke, believes that it is positive that the supporters are engaged, but: – There are also many thousands of others present at matches, such as families, children, adults, the elderly, sponsors, community clubs, etc. We as a club believe that such a measure will be able to reinforce and increase the atmosphere at the stadium for everyone. Together with our supporters, says Stokke to news. Warns of protest The general manager is clear that the music will not come immediately after a score, and that they will take account of spontaneous cheering. – What we are talking about is a short clip of 7-8 seconds, approximately. 10-15 seconds after the ball is in the goal. We think it is interesting to check whether this is a concept that will work in the stadium, says Stokke. POSITIVE: General manager of AAFK, Ronny Stokke, believes that the new introduction can be a good measure for life in the stands at the stadium.

Stormen stands with us in this, and protests will be carried out as a unit, he says. The supporters will not share what type of protest it will be, but they are clear that protests will be carried out until the target music is removed. – If not (the club changes its mind), I expect everyone to stand behind the protests at the stadium, writes supporter coordinator Eikrem. Eliteserien 2023 kicks off on Monday 10 April 14.30 with Rosenborg – Viking. Aalesund can use their new goal music against Vålerenga from 17:00. news covers all the matches on the radio.
