Meeting with him Mark Clattenberg had days ago o Lefteris Avgenakis, with the English head of KED expressing the desire to remain in his role and to wish the transformation of the arbitration into a professional one, something that the Deputy Minister of Sports agrees with.
«The other day I met with the chief referee, Mark Clattenberg. Exactly on the basis of the Holistic Study for arbitration, the exceptional head of KED, who wishes to remain for another two years to complete his strategic plan, proposed a specific ‘road map’: To immediately institute ‘professional arbitration’, to adopt the good practices of other advanced football countries, to train and instill confidence in the Greek referee, to make him independent from the tight embrace and the accomplices of the EPS, to extend the VAR to Super League 2 and a number of other institutions. I agreed 100% with Mr. Clattenberg! We fully support his work and him personally and a working group has already been set up to work more closely and get results in the coming months.“, Stressed Lefteris Avgenakis in the” Free Press “.
He also referred to the vandalism of the car of a member of the Arbitration Court, which led to his resignation. «The intimidation of this particular court official, as I had said, is the drop that overflows the glass in what has been distributed in the football federation lately. Instead of having already entered the new era of its modern operation, with the incorporation of the provisions of the Holistic Study in the Statute of the EPO and its implementation, as voted unanimously in the General Assembly. of August 27, the months go by, the year changes and the modernized Statute is ignored!
In fact, I learn from the daily contacts with the international confederations that FIFA, to which the new Statute was submitted late, returned it to the EPO, immediately demanding corrections regarding concepts of the Holistic Study!
I remind you that the Holistic Study emerged from the signatures of Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis with UEFA President Alexander Cheferin and FIFA Vice President Greg Clark, and it is completely unacceptable that the EPO administration is obstructing. As unacceptable are the reasons for the resignations of football people from the leadership positions (of Mr. Zagorakis and Mr. Boutsikaris), but also the fact that the remaining actors in the presidency are in danger of being dismissed, due to violations of their Articles of Association.
In general, the devaluation that intensifies with geometric progress is unacceptable and for all these unacceptable there is only one way, one way: The immediate and faithful implementation of the Holistic Study, in full cooperation with FIFA and UEFA, by indestructible persons who can implement it and who really believe in the dynamics of Greek football “.
