Rainbow flag controversy: What do Rems-Murr clubs say about it?
An incident occurred during a major league football game between Türkspor Neckarsulm and TSG Backnang that reignited the debate about the use of rainbow flags in sport. A TSG Backnang fan was asked by the local club's stewards to remove a rainbow flag from the board. This action caused a lot of excitement and incomprehension among those present.
In response to the incident, the Württemberg Football Association (WFV) intervened to clarify what rules apply regarding the display of rainbow flags on sports fields. In this context, numerous inquiries were made to various clubs in the Rems-Murr district in order to find out their stance on this issue and possibly establish a uniform approach. The reactions of the clubs are likely to be of great importance, especially in a region that is characterized by a large number of clubs and sports.
