The responsibility of the owners of the groups and the association. Yaakov Shahar and his friends are afraid of the fan clubs and are afraid to come out against their violence. They just try their best to hide it not remove it.
The proposal is simple, any fan caught with a weapon or photographed in a fight, the club will simply ban membership in the fan group and they will be denied entry to football fields for 10 years. Violated the order denying social security for the first class family and extending the order for another 10 years. The simplest, why not carry out?
The color……..the color……..

Can't you clearly see that this is an attack by a helpless lone fan?
Where is the Maccabi Haifa team that will issue a notice of condemnation and permanent exclusion for those Berber fans?
