Dozens of third-league and divisional clubs received an email last week with an invitation to a meeting at the FACR football association. In addition to the candidate for chairman Karel Poborský, the current boss Martin Malík, former boss Miroslav Pelta or the owner of Pilsen’s Viktoria Adolf Šádek are also to take part.
The email is signed by Jan Hořejší, Chief Secretary of the Steering Committee for the Czech Republic. The Hořejší, which was quoted, among other things, in police wiretaps, when before
through the FAČR building he was to hand over the amount of 100,000 crowns to referee Hájek for influencing the match. Although investigated by the ethics committee, he continues to work for the FACR.
“I would like to inform you that I also invited Miroslav Pelt, Áda Šádek, Martin Malík, Jan Pauly (Secretary General) to Monday’s meeting with Karel Poborský. They all accepted the invitation. “specified a week later a” charged “constellation of invited guests.
The meeting with the clubs is to take place less than two weeks before the FACR General Assembly. And it is from the third league and division clubs that a number of delegates will be recruited to elect the new leadership of the federation.
Karel Poborský will run for the highest position, Malík and Šádek will run for vice-chairman for the Czechs, and Drobný would like to lead the Steering Committee for the Czechs. Paula, in turn, would probably remain secretary general if the “postberbrov” wing won.
“If it is an election meeting of Karel Poborský, it should be held outside the premises of the FACR due to neutrality and equal campaign, despite or precisely because Karel Poborský is currently a federal employee. indicates its holding at the headquarters of the association and the announced participation of President Malík and Secretary General Pauly, it is a flagrant
violation of neutrality and especially the principle of apoliticality of the secretariat, “the opposition candidate Petr Fousek reacted sharply.
“We knew such incredible advantages in the era of Roman Berber, but this case clearly confirms that his departure has not changed anything for some people and they want to continue in the same spirit. It is completely unacceptable that such a clientelistic event is directly organized by a FACR Hořejší or at least with the knowledge of his superior,
Secretary-General Pauly, which would have to lead in any normal union
resignations or dismissals, “Fousek added in his statement.
