KNVB Hands Out Heavy Punishment to De Graafschap

De Graafschap has been handed a significant punishment by the KNVB, forcing the club to play two away matches without their own supporters. The decision comes after the club agreed to a settlement proposal from the KNVB's disciplinary department.

According to VoetbalPrimeur, the punishment is a result of an incident where fireworks were set off in the away supporters' section during a match against FC Eindhoven in October. The club has also been fined €5,000. This is not the first time De Graafschap has faced disciplinary action for a similar incident, having been given a conditional fine of one away match without spectators in May 2025, after a similar incident occurred during a play-off match against FC Dordrecht. The upcoming games against Roda JC and Jong PSV will be played without De Graafschap's supporters.
