Maccabi hoping to give absent fans some cheer
November 06, 2025
|The Guardian
The Maccabi Tel Aviv midfielder Issouf Sissokho urged his teammates to make their supporters smile against Aston Villa, after away fans were banned from the politically charged Europa League match tonight.
The Israeli club’s fans were prohibited from attending on public safety grounds but despite the ban West Midlands police have been granted section 60 stop-and-search powers and plan to deploy more than 700 officers around Villa Park to cope with protests and potential unrest.
The league-phase match has become a major talking point since Maccabi supporters were banned from attending by Birmingham’s Safety Advisory Group. The decision was criticised by some as a surrender to antisemitism, with calls for the ban to be overturned. The prime minister, Keir Starmer, called it the “wrong” decision and the opposition leader, Kemi Badenoch, said it was a “national disgrace”.
