The red and whites reiterated the position regarding the definition of UEFA elite referees or, at least, first class from the top European leagues (England, Spain, Germany, France, Italy, Holland).
The letter in detail:
“Mr Fröjdfeldt,
As you know, next Sunday 10.03.2024, the play off and play out process of the Superleague 1 championship is scheduled to begin.
It is the first time with you as the head of the KED that the specific phases of the Championship will be held, during which the title of the champion will be decided on the one hand, and on the other hand the final ranking of the teams that will potentially determine the European tickets for the UEFA competitions next period and from the third which teams will be relegated to the second professional category.
Especially in relation to the outcome of the claim for the title of Champion, the competition is very tough and the need to ensure the fairness, equality and integrity of the organization is of the utmost importance following the continuous and repeated phenomena of alteration of the championship that we have witnessed once morest the normal duration of the event.
We consider it self-evident that you have taken all the necessary actions during the time you were in charge of the Greek Refereeing in order to appoint referees from the Elite category of UEFA Referees or even First (A) Category Referees from the top European leagues ( e.g. England, Spain, Germany, France, Italy, Netherlands).
In the event that you have not done so, we invite you to immediately and quickly search for Referees with these characteristics in order to direct the Play Off matches, starting from the 1st matchday, for the appointment of which you will be solely in charge and not your shadow substitutes.
Appointing referees who do not meet the specified conditions will jeopardize the conditions of the Championship for which you and your supervisors will be solely responsible.
Finally, we declare that we reserve all legal rights in the event that the championship is affected due to your actions or omissions”.
