About hundreds of football club supporters, RSC Anderlecht donated €7,000 to a vandalised Falstaff restaurant in Brussels next to the Bourse in the city centre, which was vandalised by hooligans two weeks ago.
The Lawyer, Sven Mary, will hand over the money and consult with Le Falstaff’s management.
The supporters shared the information with the sources, “Hundreds of supporters have donated. Our core supporters backed the idea, and we know Le Falstaff is the only victim of the situation. The Swiss and we are not. We would like to apologise once again to this renowned establishment.”
The crowdfunding was ready last week to compensate for the damage to the restaurant, which was destroyed a week earlier during the fight between RSC Anderlecht and the Swiss Young Boys Bern supporters on the day before the two clubs faced off in the European Conference League.
Along with this, about 30 men wearing masks threw tables and chairs through the eatery’s window in destruction, which was reportedly the result of an earlier clash on 17 August between supporters of both teams when they played in the Swiss capital Bern.
The Anderlecht supporters contacted the well-known lawyer Sven Mary, who is their usual legal counsel and has strong ties to the club, following the fight in Brussels.
“Currently, we have contacted Le Falstaff in writing. We plan to sit around the table with the management as well as possible lawyers to make a cost estimate of the damage,” Mary clarified, adding that it is necessary to look at all the damage and determine which share of it was caused by the Swiss Young Boys Bern supporters.
