“The ice has moved and there is a will to change things. That’s an important message.” said the president of the governing body of the highest Slovak football competition.
“The events of the last derby cannot be undone, but you can learn from them and start the changes we, the clubs, are calling for, but first and foremost the vast majority of the public, decent fans who want to go to football and want to support their favorite club.
It is important to condemn the aggressive behavior of fans in the last derby Spartak Trnava – ŠK Slovan Bratislava, but it is even more important to adopt solutions so that it never happens again. ” states the press release of ÚLK.
“There is a political will to change the legislation, and that is positive news. We have been trying to start a similar debate for a long time. The events of the previous weekend do not please anyone and we would like it to never happen, but everything seems to be bad for something. The ice has moved and we really appreciate it.
Without repressive measures against individuals, without an effective preventive mechanism, we will not put a stop sign on hooligans. However, if we punish the culprits who commit the atrocities we saw during the derby, the change will come. But the most important thing in this is prevention. Such fans should never get to football either. “ stated Kozák.
A working group will deal with the topic on Wednesday. “We have experience from abroad, where they have dealt with larger groups of fans than in our country. We welcome the will to change the legislation. We want decent fans to go to football. Of course, football has passions and emotions, without them this game would lose its charm.
Nobody wants to turn football into a theater, because choreo has its charm and is a typical part of matches even in developed countries of the world. We know that it is a long distance run, but we are athletes and we are in good condition. I believe everyone is set up alike. ” added Kozák.
The parliamentary committee was convened in response to the events of the Trnava – Slovan football derby, which did not take place on October 17. After less than a quarter of an hour, the referee had to interrupt him, as rioters ran into the field and there were physical confrontations between them. There were also injuries. After the meeting, the police announced that the order for the intervention of the security forces came late from the organizer. The Presidium of the ÚLK later decided on a default in favor of Slovan.
