What are the consequences of banners protesting players’ exit?

In the last round of the Chinese Super League Evergrande's home game against China, some Evergrande fans pulled out a banner: "A simple applause is not a farewell, please respect yourself!" This move caused controversy. On May 13, the association of the fans who posted the slogan, the Guangzhou Twelve Guards Fan Club, announced the expulsion of the four fans involved.

Dear club leaders:
