AMSTERDAM (FICTION #16) - AMSTERDAM - 2014
A work about the dynamics of the city: a flyer was distributed in the neighbourhood around some sport grounds, claiming that
due to an increase of violence at football matches the city council decided to hand over the fields to a cricket club.
Translation:
NO CRICKET IN AMSTERDAM-NORTH
SPORTS CLUB DE METEOOR WILL BE FORCED TO STOP!! BECAUSE OF THE INCREASE OF VIOLENCE AT AMATEUR FOOTBALL
MATCHES THE BUREAUCRATS AT CITY HALL DECIDED THAT THEIR SPORT FIELDS MUST BE HANDED OVER TO THE
AMSTERDAM CRICKET CLUB VRA!! THEY CALL IT A CIVILIZATION PROGRAM!! THEY BELIEVE THAT IF ALL
CHILDREN PLAY CRICKET INSTEAD OF FOOTBALL THEY WILL BECOME LAW-ABIDING CITIZENS!!
BUT AN ELITIST SPORT LIKE THAT HAS NO PLACE IN AMSTERDAM-NORTH!! TUINDORP OOSTZAAN WANTS TO PLAY FOOTBALL!!
NO COMPULSORY CRICKET FOR CHILDREN!!
SPORTS CLUB DE METEOOR MUST STAY!!
