– The police are good at raising themselves in advance of such settlement, says Roar Åkerlund. He leads the Viking hordes supporter club, which welcomes arch rival Maakeberget in the stands in Stavanger on Wednesday. Then FK Haugesund and Viking meet in the elite series in football. The police have defined the settlement in advance to have a somewhat higher risk than a “regular” elite series match. On Tuesday they told Stavanger Aftenblad that they are well prepared. They should be visible in the cityscape before the match, they will use the drone to have control from the air and be in place at the train stations in the center of Stavanger and Jåttåvågen, where the stadium is located. NOK 20,000 in fine for football noise fines for football -related noise is also doubled. They did the same last year, when fines were distributed of both NOK 16,000 and NOK 20,000 linked to events involving Viking supporters. Leader Vikinghords, Roar Åkerlund.

The more the police make out, the greater the chances that someone wants to stretch the knit, he says. The supporter leader thinks the police should rather work in the weeks before the match. – Dialogue and collaboration in advance between clubs, supporter clubs and supporter coordinators, it is the important job. Spring out and telling how good the police are at the job is the wrong direction to go in, he says. Spokesman for Maakeberget, Arild Flesjå.

He remembers a Viking visit with a large police offer in his hometown. -That the Viking supporters will come to Haugesund and be met like that is completely unsustainable. There has never been any trouble before. Why should it be now? So much resources are wasted money, he says. Being done to prevent the measures are taken based on past experiences, according to police. “The reason for the measures in connection with the football match tonight is the experiences we have gained over time,” said Police Inspector Kathrine Sæland Rotseth, who is the section leader for preventive and patrolling activities in the South West Police District. She says that the measures have been taken because they want to prevent unwanted events. – The ultra -environment is in development in Norway – also here in Stavanger. In some places in the country, there are some major challenges with order disorders and physical confrontations between the various teams’ supporters. We want to prevent this, she says. Åkerlund realizes that the police want to prevent, but he thinks they choose the wrong strategy. – There have been deviations that we do not want. And it has been grabbed. But drone and things like that are violent for me. The supporter environments in Haugesund, Stavanger and the rest of Norway are so much larger than the small deviations that can occur, he says.
