BILLY BREMNER MEMORIAL JOIN OUR CAMPAIGN

SFSA X account blocked by UEFA

Date: 19th November 2025

It is hard to believe that UEFA are so out of touch that they demanded that X take down images  of  joyous fans in bars in Glasgow, Stirling and Dundee where some of our members were celebrating a glorious evening for the nation. It really smacks of  folk who have no idea about football ,making decisions.  Having campaigned for 5 years to get Scotland games shown FREE on TV fans were rightly celebrating in pubs club and homes across the country. Yes the game was  on in the background but these clips were of fans watching the game that were legally being watched on the BBC and were on average of 40 seconds long. So its hardly us streaming a game to a worldwide audience !

 

To say that were shocked to have our account blocked and then having this content deleted  is an understatement. Our message to UEFA is maybe best summed up in the chant often directed to match officials, ”You don’t know what you are doing”. However, if they want to apologise and give us a couple of tickets for Scotland’s first game at the World Cup in 2026 we will do a  ballot for our 85,000 members!
