Torcida broke the boycott ahead of the visit to Varaždin: We invite everyone to buy a ticket and cheer the club from the stands

The fan group Torcida has called off its boycott ahead of Hajduk's away match against NK Varaždin in the Croatian First League. Initially, Torcida had expressed strong dissatisfaction with the ticket prices and announced a boycott, urging fans not to buy tickets for a match against 'political nonsense' referring to NK Varaždin. However, after NK Varaždin decided to lower the ticket price to 10 euros (plus a 1.5 euro fee), Torcida concluded that their main goal of reducing the excessively high ticket price had been achieved. As a result, they decided to end the boycott and now encourage all fans to purchase tickets and support their club from the stands. The situation reflects a complex historical background involving the former club NK Varteks, which was founded in 1931 but went through financial difficulties, rebranding, and eventual bankruptcy. Some fans believe that today's NK Varaždin lacks continuity with the old Varteks and consider it a completely new club formed after the collapse of the original team.

On the day of the match, Torcida comes to the stadium: "The goal is achieved, we end the boycott"

The fan group Torcida, which had planned to boycott a football match between Varazdin and Split due to high ticket prices, has decided to end the boycott after Varazdin agreed to reduce ticket prices to 10 euros (plus a 1.50 euro fee). The group stated that their main goal, reducing excessively high ticket costs, has been achieved, and they now urge fans to purchase tickets and support the club. Initially, Split fans had announced they would attend the game, but it appears that the event will indeed take place with both teams' supporters present. Originally, tickets for all stands were priced at 18 euros, while those for the luxury boxes cost 25 euros.

A big turnaround on the eve of Varaždin - Hajduk: Torcida is coming to the stadium

The football fan group Torcida, which supports Hajduk Split, initially announced a boycott of ticket purchases for a match against Varaždin due to high prices and poor conditions for away fans. The original price for tickets at the Gradski Stadium in Varaždin was set at 18 euros for the Hajduk tribine, with an additional 1.50 euros for online purchases. Torcida criticized the pricing, sanitation facilities, segregation of away fans, and restrictions on displaying Hajduk’s symbols. They called for a protest and urged Hajduk supporters not to buy tickets. However, after Varaždin reduced the ticket price to 10 euros with a 1.50 euro fee, Torcida concluded that the main goal of the boycott, lowering costs, had been achieved. As a result, they decided to end the boycott and encourage fans to purchase tickets. Hajduk will thus receive support from their fans at the stadium.

Torcida on the eve of Varaždin: The goal is achieved, we end the boycott

The football fan group Torcida, known for their activism against the club NK Varaždin, initially announced a boycott of an upcoming match due to high ticket prices.

As a result, they officially called off the boycott and urged fans to purchase tickets and support the team at the stadium. The article highlights the complex history between the old club NK Varteks and the current NK Varaždin, including disputes over identity and legitimacy.

Bias read (Center): While the issue involves a sensitive historical and ideological conflict between two football clubs, the article presents both sides of the dispute relatively neutrally. It explains the background of the rivalry and the motivations behind the boycott without overtly favoring either side. The framing
