The Federation is paralyzed by the case against Manager Rocha!
The Spanish Football Federation started the week with bad news. Pedro Rocha, the only candidate approved for the presidency, will not be able to be proclaimed this Monday, as established by the electoral process. due to a problem related to the Management Commission.
The Electoral Commission made no decision and decided to refer it to the Sports Administrative Court (TAS). one of Miguel Galan’s many appeals, and a five-day period for a decision now opens.
Galan submitted his challenge late, but TAD accepted it anyway.. The Supreme Sports Council (SSC), that is, the government received a message from TAD that this body is initiating sanctions proceedings for a possible very serious violation of the rules of the board chaired by Pedro Rocha.
Galan’s next demand is now based on the fact that the board made decisions that were inconsistent with him, such as the dismissal of Jorge Vilda as coach of the women’s soccer team. That’s why, The TAD will examine whether the manager has indeed exceeded his limits. or we had to act so that Spanish football would not suffer.
Government pressure
It’s worth remembering that Vilda was fired amid strong pressure from the government itself. For example, Yolanda Diaz, second vice president and minister of labor and social economy of the Spanish government, was one of those who demanded the dismissal of Jorge Vilda.
Now begins the waiting period during which The legal services of the Supreme Sports Council are analyzing the content of the TAD decision to initiate a casewhich consists of 39 pages to determine next steps.
All this caused complete paralysis in the Federation.. The board is unlikely to make decisions that affect day-to-day activities of the Federation until a clear decision is made.
The uncertainty is total. If the matter ends in the disqualification of the Management Commission, not only will Pedro Rocha not be able to represent himself, but none of its members will be able to do so.. The current president, after Rocha’s resignation, to run for office, This is Rafael del Amo.
Start the electoral process again
At worst, the electoral process should start from the starting point. That is, a new calendar will be opened for receiving applications and Deadlines will be determined so that they can submit the 21 endorsements required to qualify for the position.
Pedro Rocha still firmly states that he has nothing to do with the actions of Luis Rubiales and will go to the end. It cannot be ruled out that the coach will not be disqualified, since Luis Rubiales was not disqualified at that time.. Let us remember that the former president was disqualified by FIFA, and then his inevitable resignation came.
To complete the script, Javier Tebas decided to resort to blaming coach Rocha because the prosecutor “took over the functions of a judge.” A technical-legal problem that clings to LaLiga will support the only presidential candidate.
One of the merits of Pedro Rocha was the signing of peace with You.This comes after a long path of conflict between the La Liga top leader and Luis Rubiales.
Rocha has reached a consensus unprecedented in recent times in Spanish football.which TAD may violate if it does not allow him to proclaim himself president.
