Club Statement
Crusaders FC received the unfortunate news yesterday from the Irish Football Association that we have been fined by the Discipline Committee for supporters using Pyrotechnics at our recent games away to Glenavon & Cliftonville.
The fine of £1250 brings our total fines this season to near £2000.
Our support and the atmosphere created this season, home and away has been exceptional and continues to be our 12th man.
We encourage the use of tifos, drums, club colours & flags while making plenty of noise to push the team on.
We appeal to our wider support to refrain from bringing and using pyrotechnics. They are extremely dangerous and costing your club money.
Any future use will only be met with larger financial penalties on the football club.
