Memphis Depay and Robin van Persie appeal: ‘Rioting is not the solution, don’t!’ | Football

sport">“Looting people’s shops and destroying cars is not the answer, man. I cannot determine for an adult man what he will do with his time, but for all young people: don’t do it ”, writes the attacker of Olympique Lyon and Oranje on his official twitter account.

Van Persie

sport">Not only Depay, but also ex-international Robin van Persie has made an appeal to stop the riots. “I understand that the situation is far from ideal and this causes frustration, but please let’s keep our beautiful city & the rest of the Netherlands intact! In addition, I would like to appeal to respect all emergency services and entrepreneurs who have nothing to do with this! ”

Telstar

sport">Telstar has also sent a message to the world. The club from the Kitchen Champion Division put a video online in which director Pieter de Waard calls on everyone to behave.

sport">“Telstar is socially involved, works on inclusiveness and safety. We are making a positive contribution, even now, ”says De Waard. “Excesses as we experience them here and there do not contribute to prosperity. That is why we ask everyone, from the bottom of our hearts, to keep a cool head. Speak to your children, your friends, anyone. Be open to dialogue and stay away from violence. ” The video ends with Telstar’s motto: committed and fearless.

Sunnery James

sport">The Dutch DJ world is also being asked to stop riots and looting. Sunnery James – who himself broke through as a promising player in the youth and was an intern at Chelsea, but an injury prevented a further career – thinks that violence is not the solution. Connection is the power against ‘injustice’. Listen to each other, even if you don’t agree with another. Realize that everyone strives for safety and love! ”, He writes on Instagram.

sport">He continues: “Violence and vandalism are never the solution and cannot be justified, even though I understand the frustrations and powerlessness. Stop demolishing and stand up for your opinion peacefully and sincerely. Everyone reacts differently, so please let’s stop judging each other. ”
