Club targets no-shows in the stands
Malmö FF are pushing a new policy to crack down on empty seats at home matches. The club wants to penalise fans who buy tickets but don't show up, something SLO Pierre Nordberg says is "rätt högt upp på agendan", right near the top of the agenda (1). No details yet on what penalties would look like, but it's clearly a live issue inside the club. If you're a regular at Eleda Stadion, this one's worth watching.
Ex-MFF reserve recalls Messi moment
A former Malmö FF reserve player has revealed he once faced Lionel Messi in a match, and the experience left an impression, though apparently not on Messi. The unnamed ex-MFF man says he was so stunned by the encounter he barely remembers it himself: "Minns inte" (2). It's a quirky footnote from a career that passed through Malmö, even if the name won't ring any bells.
