‘In Iran they take to the streets, the farmers block a road and the player group opts for a boycott’

In the run-up to FC Groningen’s game against FC Utrecht, it was mainly about ‘Eyes’, the dog of FC Groningen player Paulos Abraham, who had bitten to death a Chihuahua of a flatmate. RTV Noord reported about the incident, was boycotted by the group of players and staff and a day later Abraham was given an early holiday, because the club reported that the Swede was seriously threatened.
