Hapoel Tel Aviv Fan Group to Halt Organized Support After Derby
The Hard Block, an organized fan group for Hapoel Tel Aviv football club, announced it will cease its organized presence at matches following the upcoming derby later this month. In a statement, the group explained that after over a year of leading fan support, their goal was to unite the Hapoel Tel Aviv community and encourage the return of all fans. They stated that the club has not taken significant steps to facilitate this reunion.
Consequently, the Hard Block declared that they will return to being regular fans, supporting the team as individuals rather than an organized bloc. They confirmed their intention to attend the derby on September 17th with drums and flags, but this will mark the end of their organized activities. The group urged the club's management to work towards healing divisions within the fanbase and called on all supporters to prioritize the team above all else.
