Wir trauern um Thomas Glöy.

Thomas war Fanaktivist der ersten Stunde, Fanzine Pionier, Museums Macher bei St. Pauli und unzählige Jahre im Vorstand von BAFF.

Thomas war aber in allererster Linie für viele von uns ein guter Freund und wir werden ihn sehr vermissen.

Mach’s gut, Thomas!

Oh look, it’s @tariqpanja.bsky.social talking about Bernd Neuendorf.

“The people who are supposed to be looking after the game are quiet, because, you know, I dare say this, because they are paid off in different ways, and that is the structure of football.”

❌ No reduced prices for accessibility tickets
❌ No free companion passes
❌ Zero genuine dialogue
❌ Zero protection from scalping on resale platform

FIFA is ignoring fans with disabilities who want to back their team at the #WorldCup.

Here are some of their voices.
A quote from Jo McNicol, England supporter, FSE Disability & Inclusion Fan Network Member, speaking about the FIFA World Cup 2026 ticket prices: "I booked my flights and transport for the upcoming World Cup as soon as we were able to. I wasn’t successful in the first two ballots and at no point did I need to tell them I need wheelchair seats. I found it very strange they didn’t ask for this or allow you to advise you wanted accessible seating. FIFA are allowing anyone to purchase a wheelchair space. I also found wheelchair tickets on the resale platform at a high price with only one space and no seat for a personal assistant (companion). I can’t travel to games without someone helping me. The companion seat is needed for me to be able to attend safely.” A quote from Piotr Czarnota, Poland supporter, FSE Disability & Inclusion Fan Network Member, speaking about the FIFA World Cup 2026 ticket prices: "For 12 years I’ve had the honor of following my national team, Poland, as a supporter. During that time I’ve been to four tournaments both European Championships and World Cups. Until now I’ve never had any problems purchasing tickets or organising my travel and accommodation. Although Poland’s qualification for the World Cup will only be decided in March, I can already say that the proposed ticket costs are shockingly high from my perspective. Planning a barrier-free trip, booking accessible accommodation and having an assistant attend matches with me are essential if I am to take part in this football event. Unfortunately, the current challenges related to ticket accessibility and pricing are making the prospect of attending this celebration of football increasingly unrealistic.” A quote from Jon Attenborough, Scotland supporter, FSE Disability & Inclusion Fan Network Member, speaking about the World Cup 2026 accesibility tickets: "It’s absolutely disgraceful. It just shows FIFA’s complete lack of consultation with disabled fans and their representative groups. Charging full price for an extra adult ticket will have a devastating impact on disabled supporters and their ability to afford attending the World Cup.” A quote from Alberto Alaiz, Spain supporter, FSE Disability & Inclusion Fan Network Member, speaking about the World Cup 2026 accessibility ticket prices: "Since its inception, football has been founded on the bond between players and supporters. Without the fans, modern football is reduced to little more than a casual kickabout. Yet while FIFA proudly announces the expansion of the World Cup, it simultaneously prices supporters out with tickets affordable only to the wealthy. If the experience is already costly and challenging for the average fan, it is even more prohibitive for those of us with disabilities."

Don't be fooled by FIFA's PR spin to cover its tracks. The reality of the 60 USD tickets barely makes a difference.

Take England vs Croatia. Approx. 1% of the fans in the Dallas Stadium will have 60USD tickets via their NAs. That's about 800 from 70.000+. FIFA must do more.
Infographic by Football Supporters Europe illustrating FIFA World Cup 2026 ticket pricing. Titled ‘The Real Extent of FIFA’s 60 USD Ticket U-Turn’, it uses an England vs Croatia group match example at Dallas Stadium. A dense grid of small human icons represents stadium capacity, showing that only a very small proportion of fans would have access to USD 60 tickets, while the vast majority would pay at least USD 265. Flags of England and Croatia and an explanatory legend are included.

We’ve written to FIFA President Gianni Infantino to warn #WorldCup2026 ticket prices will exclude fans with disabilities.

High prices, charging for companions, & unchecked resales without price limits will cut them out. FIFA must act on this now.

Weswegen man Carro nicht trauen sollte, auch bei anderen Themen wie 50+1:
Bayer Leverkusens CEO Fernando Carro sagte bei Sky: „Das ist eine polizeiliche Maßnahme, da können wir nichts zu sagen. Ich finde, man sollte in unserem Land der Polizei schon vertrauen."

Die Preise für die WM-Tickets, die die Verbände von der FIFA an ihre Fans vergeben, kommen langsam an.

DFB meldet 5.935 Euro für alle acht Spiele zusammen in der günstigsten Kategorie. Teuere Kategorie 14.095 Euro

Hier gilt laut FIFA kein "Dynamic Pricing".

FIFA's World Cup ticket prices are a betrayal to the most dedicated fans. At least $6900 to support your team from the first match to the final - nearly 5 times more than in Qatar.

FSE calls for the immediate halt to ticket sales.

Let us be very clear: this baby's rattle is not awarded "on behalf of billions of fans around the world", as FIFA claims. It’s nothing more than an ego-stroking stunt.

🏆⁉️ FSE on the FIF AWorld Cup 2026: Minimum certainty, maximum exploitation.

Ahead of tonight's #WorldCup2026 draw, many questions still left unasnwered by FIFA - from human rights concerns to the costs of tickets.

🔗 Full Statement: https://bit.ly/4iJ54px
A graphic with the headline, "WORLD CUP 2026: MINIMUM CERTAINTY, MAXIMUM EXPLOITATION". Below is a long quote from Ronan Evain, Executive Director of Football Supporters Europe (FSE). The quote reads: "We remain extremely concerned by the all-round lack of clarity and the profit-driven approach that has guided FIFA until now. Never in the history of the tournament have fans been expected to take such huge financial risks to follow their team with such little certainty on what to expect in return. FIFA should lead by example and set clear pricing guidelines to reassure fans and acknowledge their contribution to the game. FIFA had full control over this and yet made a conscious decision to set record high prices. It also must ensure all fans are safe and feel welcome when attending. It's still not too late for FIFA to do right by all attending the tournament." The FSE logo is in the corner.
