Anderlecht and even the politics react sharply after spandoek at Coucke's castle. Foto: photonews. Marc Coucke is in the eye of the storm of the supporters of RSC Anderlecht. They even brought a message to his castle in Merelbeke. Unacceptable is that for the purple-white club. They come with a strong reaction. A few days ago, there was already an unmistakable message at the training center in Neerpede, where graffiti was applied with the same clear text: “Coucke outside”. A day later, they had already removed the messages at Anderlecht. In the night of Saturday to Sunday, supporters then went to Coucke's castle in Merelbeke, to also express their discontent with a very clear spandoek directed at the strong man of purple-white. “Sois noble et casse toi. Ne nous oblige pas ...”, according to the spandoek. It is clear that the fans want Coucke to leave their beloved club. “Marc Coucke has no insight into football. He sees our club as a business, not as a supporter”, according to a fan of the hard core against Het Nieuwsblad. “Since his arrival in 2017, we have not won a single prize. While Anderlecht is obliged to stand at its level to go for the title every year. Coucke can invest 200 million in his zoo with animals in Pairi Daiza, but can still not give 10 million to the club.” RSC Anderlecht has already reacted to the way of working of the fans via a press release: “At the end of this season, the club has again met with the Fan Council. In those constructive meetings, the position of majority shareholder Marc Coucke has never been discussed.” “The demands of a few individuals - and that's what it's about - who have made their demands known in the last few days through unacceptable means and clearly threatening language, are not at all representative of our many supporters. The club will never accept that individuals would stop matches to enforce their completely unreasonable and totally unfounded demands.” “The club also clearly states that - in the interest of the vast majority of fans who want to support RSCA positively - any threat or damage to the club, its fans or stakeholders will be sanctioned with all possible means.” “The club takes this summer transfer market ambitiously to start the new season from the European qualifying rounds well, with thanks to the daily commitment of our shareholders, with Marc Coucke at the top”, according to RSC Anderlecht. Even the politics are stirring: this is unacceptable. With that, the case is also immediately off the table for Anderlecht. The case is unacceptable for them and they are also supported by Egbert Lachaert, the mayor of Merelbeke-Melle, the territory of Coucke's castle. “Whether it's at Marc Coucke or someone else: you have to leave people alone at home. You can have criticism or protest, but targeting someone's home goes too far. That's unacceptable”, according to the mayor of Anders still in the newspaper.
