This was reported by " Interfax " from the words of the specialist of the department for working with the fans of the Premier League of the Premier League of Northword Alekseev.

According to Alexander Meitin, the director of the Premier League Security, it is impossible to completely exclude the manifestations of racism in stadiums, since the fans are decided on provocations "in order to assert themselves, they may pay for someone, these tricks are paid."

Earlier, fans of the Russian football clubs Zenit, CSKA and Spartak made a joint appeal, in which they expressed concerns regarding their prospects if the Law on fans is adopted in Russia. Fans expressed the conviction that the problem of violence at the stadiums is currently minimal, moreover, it is the fault of the organizers of football matches. “We need to work and create appropriate conditions, and not try to resolve the issue of their incompetence by adopting repressive laws,” the fans said in their appeal.

The initiative to create a law on fans arose after a series of riots at the matches of the Russian Championship - in particular, during the meeting of the Wings of the Soviets - Spartak in Samara. Due to the incident, at the sector of fans, guests had to suspend the match. The stadium itself, due to the actions of fans, received damage in the amount of over half a million rubles. On several fans of Spartak, criminal cases have been instituted.
