Tickets Statement: From \u201cExtraordinary Measure\u201d to Clarification and Partial Retraction<\/h2>\n
Hours before, Tangier Union became the talk of Moroccans, as it issued an official statement announcing an extraordinary measure regarding ticket purchases. It mentioned directly: \u201cAnyone who has not purchased their ticket for the Tangier Union match against Nahda Zemamra\u2026 will be unable to benefit from the right to purchase tickets for the upcoming match against Raja Sports.\u201d<\/p>\n
The club justified the step as aiming to \u201cencourage fans to continue supporting the team in all its matches, not just during matches that see a large audience turnout,\u201d while emphasizing that \u201ctrue belonging does not just show in major matches, but is manifested in constant attendance.\u201d<\/p>\n
The statement sparked a major uproar and widespread criticism on a national level, as many considered it a \u201cthreat\u201d and \u201cpunishment\u201d for the audience. The club later responded with clarifications affirming that it was \u201cjust a message\u201d to emphasize the importance of supporting the team against all opponents \u201cwhether they are major or minor,\u201d and that it \u201cwould not prevent anyone from tickets,\u201d denying that the decision was a punishment or a strict condition.<\/p>\n The statement did not go unnoticed by the fans, especially the \u201cHercules\u201d group (Ultras Hercules), a prominent faction supporting the club. The group issued a fiery statement describing the decision as \u201ca precedent in the history of Tangier Union,\u201d accusing the management of \u201cdiminishing the audience\u201d and \u201cforcing them to attend\u201d through a logic of orders and threats of penalties.<\/p>\n The Hercules statement read: \u201cWe chose to support the union and imposed on ourselves to be loyal to it, and we will not allow anyone\u2026 to diminish the great Union audience. We attended under storms and were the only ones behind the team during the coronavirus period\u2026 thus we announce our attendance at the Nahda Zemamra match due to its great importance, and we declare our boycott of the Raja match because it has become an ordinary match after this decision.\u201d<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/tanja7.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/725592820_1018547527433388_6912419033027189724_n-1_Tanja7.webp\")
