Slovan disagrees with the amount of the fine or the ban on derbies: The organizer failed to the fullest! – Športky.sk

BRATISLAVA – ŠK Slovan Bratislava football club respects and accepts punishment in the form of a ban on its fans traveling to the next four external matches. However, he considers the remaining two penalties from the Disciplinary Commission of the Slovak Football Association to be disproportionate and inadequate.

DK SFZ punished for events from the unfinished and later contaminated Fortuna League derby, which took place on October 17, and the main referee ended it prematurely on the field after the battles of the hooligans of both camps. The home FC Spartak Trnava was fined 35,000 euros, Slovan 20,000 euros. Spartak will play the next three home matches without spectators, entry will be allowed only to children under 15 years. In addition, DK SFZ forbade fans of both clubs to travel to each other until the end of the competition year.

“The amount of the fines does not reflect who was the organizer of the match. ŠK Slovan was a guest team in the derby and therefore could not influence its organization and provide sufficient security measures necessary to organize such a match. The difference in financial penalty between the organizer (FC Spartak Trnava) and DK SFZ did not take into account the fact that FC Spartak Trnava in the past was able to organize not only many derbies, but also much riskier matches with clubs such as Legia Warsaw or Crvena Star Belgrade. underestimated, underestimated the actual organization of the match and the level of security measures, ” it is stated in Friday’s opinion on the official website of “whites”.

Slovan will wait for a written justification of the decision of DK SFZ, which will forward it to the law firm for assessment. It will most likely file an appeal against the decision of DK SFZ. “We do not agree with the ban on guest fans participating in the derby until the end of the season. It is not the right tool. The derby also includes the atmosphere that both fan camps will create. This ban brings with it an increased risk for the organizer when tickets to the home sector, which can cause other unwanted incidents right at the stadium, and there are definitely solutions to match management and security measures, such as the use of biometrics, because we are not talking about thousands of troubled people, but a small group of people. in the case of our fans in Trnava, it is true that the vast majority of them came to support the Slavs and did not commit illegal actions, and I stand behind them. The problem is not the majority in our case or in other clubs, but the minority. “ announced the general director of the club Ivan Kmotrík Jr.
