As tradition dictates: A dominant season deserves to end with pool toys!

The F.C. Copenhagen Fan Club finds it deeply unsatisfactory that this year’s cup final has been moved to MCH Arena in Herning – a stadium with a capacity of only 12,000 spectators. This week’s two semi-finals in the cup tournament attracted a combined audience of over 35,000 spectators, clearly showing the widespread, nationwide interest in the tournament. In light of the commitment from both finalists and the final's status as a celebration of football across Denmark, it is highly regrettable that such limited conditions have been chosen for the match.

On Thursday, April 3rd, the Divisionsforeningen (Danish League Association) announced their plan for the organization of the 2025 cup final. We recognize the need for safety considerations at major matches, but we are disappointed and puzzled that fan organizations have not been part of the process leading to the chosen solutions.

After the most recent derby at Brøndby Stadium, we expressed concerns about the safety of our traveling fans due to repeated security failures in and around the away section.

In the F.C. Copenhagen Fan Club, we have followed the debate over the past few days regarding one of FCK’s owners and his statements about the war in Ukraine.

For us, it is clear that F.C. Copenhagen, as a club, has taken on an important social responsibility in connection with the war.

There is always a risk that fan clubs can get stuck in inefficient workflows simply because of the mindset: “This is how we’ve always done it.” That’s why we greatly appreciate the opportunity for knowledge-sharing at these seminars.
