Schalke Condemns Dublin Fan-March Attacks and Opens Internal Review

Investigators are working to identify individuals shown in the widely shared videos.

Overview

  • Social-media footage shows a photographer confronted during the march and a man who intervened shoved to the ground and apparently kicked.
  • Both victims filed police reports; photographer Carly Clarke later said they were both okay but slightly injured.
  • Schalke called the images "disturbing," apologized to those affected, and said a comprehensive internal review is underway with consequences promised.
  • The club noted that information remains incomplete and that identifying specific perpetrators from the videos is a practical challenge.
  • Around 2,000 Schalke supporters traveled for the friendly at Dalymount Park, which Bohemians won 3–2 before roughly 4,500 fans, with another international match at FC Twente scheduled for November 13.
