AIK
Have burns occurred as a result of bengal use?
– I don’t have anything on hand that has been put together for the year, says event and security manager Henrik Koch.
How have you perceived the Bengalis? Have you noticed that there have been problems with ignitions?
– We have had more projecting pyrotechnics this year than in previous years. It’s a trend that you can see.
How many organizer suspensions and access bans do you have?
– Eleven organizer suspensions and 26 access bans. I think they are fairly constant compared to previous years.
How did it happen?
– I think it is a good dialogue with the supporters. That it does not work to play football with thrown objects.
BK Häcken
Have burns occurred as a result of bengal use?
– No, says security manager Nicklas Möller.
How many organizer suspensions and access bans do you have?
– Eight organizer suspensions and three access bans. Well, we slept quite constantly. But since then, after the incident that happened last, five have been added. That is why we are at eight. We have tried to work actively with organizer suspensions and there will probably be a few more during the end of the year. In the larger context, it feels like we had a quiet year. Then we grow as a club and the supporters too.
Degerfors IF
Have burns occurred as a result of bengal use?
– No, it hasn’t. In contrast, the Bengals have increased. We have many more Bengals than last year, says security manager Ulf Backman.
How many organizer suspensions and access bans do you have?
– Three organizer suspensions and no access bans. That’s two more than last year.
Djurgårdens IF
Have burns occurred as a result of bengal use?
– Yes, we have had that, says Mats Jonsson, events and security manager.
Do you know how many?
– No, I do not know. But we had burns yesterday due to pyrotechnics. Maybe not only Bengals but because of pyrotechnics, at the game at Guldfågeln Arena. It happens to varying extents, of course, but mostly minor burns have occurred. But nothing more serious at all actually during this season, as far as I can tell anyway.
How many organizer suspensions and access bans do you have?
– It has been quite an intense year, I would say. Without knowing the exact number at arm’s length, I would say somewhere between 30-40 people have been the subject of trials in arrangement suspension cases. We have 21 access bans.
Does it sound to you like the numbers have increased compared to previous years?
– Yes, I would say that they have. Both event suspensions and access bans. Now they are somewhat connected in terms of identification processes and other things, but both parts have increased in our case compared to previous years. Above all, access bans have increased for us.
Halmstads BK
Have burns occurred as a result of bengal use?
– No, I can’t remember that we were made aware of burns in connection with bengal burning, says safety manager Anders Nilsson.
How many organizer suspensions and access bans do you have?
– We have three organizer suspensions and nine access bans.
How is the security situation compared to previous years?
– In general, I think the security situation is ok. I base it on the fact that throughout the season, after each match, the Police considered that we had conducted safe events. We implement security-enhancing measures before our matches (e.g. visitation) and staff up with security guards according to police permission. Like most clubs, we have had pyrotechnics at several of our matches. However, we have not had any disturbances between supporter groups inside the arena.
Hammarby IF
Have burns occurred as a result of bengal use?
– Yes, I assume so. But we have not had any reported more serious cases. There is probably a large amount of darkness there, says event manager and security manager Göran Rickmer.
How many organizer suspensions and access bans do you have?
– Nine organizer suspensions and 46 access bans.
It is probably the most in Sweden. How do you see it?
– That is what we currently have. Then whether it’s a lot or not, I don’t know. It can be a mark of success. But it can also be a grade for failure. I do not know. It depends on how you look at it.
How is the security situation compared to previous years?
– What we can ascertain is that we currently have an audience boom in Swedish football and this means that we are getting a different behavior pattern. Either you choose to look at each individual event or you see it from a larger perspective. Then we can state that Swedish football has succeeded quite well with its security work. Things still happen, we still have disorder but we have far fewer problems than the rest of Europe.
IF Brommapojkarna
Have burns occurred as a result of bengal use?
– No, not at Grimsta, says event manager Philip Kämpe.
How many organizer suspensions and access bans do you have?
– No organizer suspensions or access bans.
IF Elfsborg
Have burns occurred as a result of bengal use?
– No, it hasn’t done that in the arena, says security manager Jonas Livered.
How many organizer suspensions and access bans do you have?
– Five organizer suspensions and six entry bans, could be seven.
Has anything increased or decreased?
– We haven’t had any organizer suspensions before, so now we have five. The access bans are probably the same as in previous years.
How is the security situation compared to previous years?
– We have had to sharpen our security work more and more. Because the climate in the stands has become worse and we have had to adapt to that. More visitors, more security guards, more staff. We take height for more things that can happen in the arena than we had to do before.
IFK Gothenburg
Have burns occurred as a result of bengal use?
– No one has been injured. Nothing of the sort has come to my attention. However, some items of clothing have been destroyed, but no injuries, says head of security Jonas Arlmark.
How many organizer suspensions and access bans do you have?
– We have two organizer suspensions and 13 access bans.
How is the security situation compared to previous years?
– Incidents are generally increasing in Sweden. I think the same applies to Blåvitt, I think we are following that trend.
IFK Norrköping
Have burns occurred as a result of bengal use?
– Someone grabbed a Bengal that was lying on the ground and it burned. The person was burned but suffered no permanent damage. We have had a couple who have had a little trouble with smoke in their eyes as well. Nobody has had to seek medical care, says security manager Erik Grundtman.
How many organizer suspensions and access bans do you have?
– We have seven organizer suspensions and five access bans.
How is the security situation compared to previous years?
– I am relatively new, so it is difficult for me to compare with previous years. But it’s not dangerous to go to football, as you sometimes hear. It is not.
IFK Värnamo
Have burns occurred as a result of bengal use?
– We have a burn injury this season, in connection with a fire, says Joel Wallin, safety manager at IFK Värnamo.
A serious?
– No, very superficial on the one hand.
How many organizer suspensions and access bans do you have?
– We haven’t done anything during the year, but we will add some organizer suspensions during the winter. The access bans are also something that is ongoing. It is not something I can answer and comment on.
How is the security situation compared to previous years?
– I think the experience at the events goes a little hand in hand in recent years purely in terms of safety as experienced among the supporters. I think the culture is almost equivalent. What I think has become positive from the organizer’s point of view is that we have a little more tools that we can work with. With bag bans and other things, there is heightened attention among even ordinary supporters, when it comes to suspicions of people smuggling in Bengals and the like. It has become safer but still not fixed with these concerns that exist.
ME Sirius
Have burns occurred as a result of bengal use?
– Yes, it has happened. We have received information from people who have contacted us. It has arisen, at least on one occasion. It is problematic, says event manager Linus Wallén.
How many organizer suspensions and access bans do you have?
– We have two organizer suspensions right now. Regarding access bans, I may refer to the police.
How is the security situation compared to previous years?
– It’s a bit lopsided. If we look at our business, we take steps all the time. Then it is very difficult to decide. Because some things get worse and some things get better. So it’s a bit lopsided.
Kalmar FF
Have burns occurred as a result of bengal use?
– Yes. Last Sunday. Then we had two cases. These are minor injuries to the hands. We may have had five in total during the season, says security manager Björn Andersson.
How many organizer suspensions and access bans do you have?
– We have six organizer suspensions and six access bans.
How is the security situation compared to previous years?
– Good. The start was like that. But together with the police, we got things in order and then I think it went really well.
Malmö FF
Have burns occurred as a result of bengal use?
– Yes, it has happened, says security manager Peter Narbe.
How many organizer suspensions and access bans do you have?
– Currently, we have three organizer suspensions and one entry ban, as far as I know.
How is the security situation compared to previous years?
– We have had a clear quantitative increase in the use of pyrotechnics during the year. Regarding disturbances in general, I currently have no established basis for the year to compare with last year.
Mjällby AIF
Have burns occurred as a result of bengal use?
– No, no one. Last year, a Hammarby supporter got a burn, I know, but it hasn’t happened this year. We have been lucky, says facilities and security manager Patrik Olsson.
How many organizer suspensions and access bans do you have?
– Four access bans, three more are possibly in the works.
How is the security situation compared to previous years?
– I think we have taken a big step forward, the whole organization. For the better. The pyrotechnics have not decreased but we have been able to identify people and nothing has happened when it has been fired.
