Football Association of Slovenia seemed to have already decided on Tuesday who will play in which league next season, but things have evidently started to get complicated. Very complicated. And not so much because of Rogaška. The black and white team from Rogaška Slatina is indeed challenging the decision of the NZS regarding the revocation of the license, but it seems that an even bigger headache for the governing body at the moment is caused by Dob!
Dob has easily won the 3rd SNL West this year with excellent performances, without experiencing a single defeat in 26 matches. Darko Birjukov’s proteges secured a whopping 13-point lead over Ljubljana’s Slovan, but it’s still possible that they won’t actually utilize what they earned on the field.
As we have learned, or rather, as is increasingly being discussed in the Slovenian football community, Dob is not inclined to advance to the 2nd SNL. According to our information, the club’s leadership has assessed that moving up to a higher level of competition would be too much of a financial burden for them, so they reportedly want to remain in the 3rd SNL.
All of this, of course, turns everything upside down. Based on the results, both Tabor and Fužinar should have dropped out of the 2nd SNL. Since only Aluminij is coming from the 1st SNL to the second league, as the additional qualifications due to Rogaška’s licensing issues have been canceled, this means that there is one vacant spot in the 2nd SNL. Well, or even two, if Dob indeed renounces promotion. So, how will the NZS decide? Well, the task is not easy. Somehow, it will have to be resolved. And as quickly as possible…
