"In recent months, the Netanya crowd has returned to the pitches, but at the same time an illegal phenomenon is developing that hurts us all - throwing objects on the pitch and especially pyrotechnics that are prohibited by regulations around the world and in Israel, flares and grenades, some of which were stolen from the IDF. The players and the professional team, "Segal wrote.
"In the beginning, these were isolated cases - which yesterday became a flood that stopped the game for long minutes and during the team's momentum," the owner added.

The staff continued: "The ball is in our hands, the vast majority of the crowd, we must cooperate in eradicating this wrong and dangerous phenomenon, which endangers us safely, rises to the club with heavy damage and will cause quite a few new families and fans to avoid games and stop the growth.
"The club for its part will not stand aside and any fan documented throwing objects or pyrotechnic products, including those who assist them, will sue civilly (regardless of the criminal proceedings unrelated to us) in significant amounts and without forgiveness as before, because this phenomenon must disappear from our world and beautiful one hour earlier."
The owner of Netanya thanked the large crowd that came and supported Hapoel Tel Aviv and said: "Thank you very much to the 9,000 fans who came yesterday and cheered non-stop, thank you to the players who pressed and controlled and did their best and even though they did not decide the game, left the ball on our field.
And thanks to the professional team that set up a team in Netanya that you can be proud of at any moment on the field. "
