What would three groups of the third league look like after the reorganization? There are still a lot of question marks
BRATISLAVA. By the end of the season III. The league remains six laps. There is a reorganization after the competition.
There will be three instead of the current two groups: West, Wednesday and East. The West will have 16 participants while the center and east of 14.
The competition will continue to be managed by the Slovak Football Association.
The clubs liked this format
The competition system is changing after three years, although it was originally claimed that the current model will be used for at least five seasons.
The two groups format most of the clubs, despite higher travel costs.
He offered interesting confrontations, the teams that played together in the second league were again, friendly relations between teams from other regions were created.
As some coaches noted, longer trips to the opponents also had the character of a teambuilding. A journey of 200 kilometers by bus After the winning match It can strengthen the team, which cannot be said about a 40-minute move by cars from the neighboring city.
The level of the competition was very solid, the tables are balanced. Especially in the West group, the last one can overcome the first, but also in the east some parts of the table have been reached.
Interest in the B -eight are eight
The main reason for further reorganization is to cancel the possibility of alternating starts, the so -called farms in men.
League teams and clubs with the Academy Statute can create a B-team that can apply for the third league.
Until the Depending February, eight clubs announced the interest in signing up for their B -B -League:
- FC Petržalka (BFZ) – It will be included in the 3rd West League
- KFC Komárno (ZsFZ) – West
- DAC 1904 Dunajská Streda (ZsFZ) – West
- AS Trenčín (ZsFZ) – West
- MFK Ružomberok (SSFZ) – will be included in the 3rd league center
- MFK Dukla Banská Bystrica (SSFZ) – center
- FC Tatran Prešov (VsFZ) – It will be included in the 3rd East League
- FC Košice (VsFZ) – East
The possibility was not used by Skalica, Trnava, Michalovce, Podbrezová and the second -league Pohronie. Slovan Bratislava and MŠK Žilina already have their B-team, they work in the second league.
The second league is financially demanding
Clubs that have not confirmed the interest in creating a B-team can no longer think that they would build it. However, it may happen that, despite the announced interest, some of the clubs will not sign up for their B -League.
The question is especially the league units, which fight for rescue and in the case of falling into II. League can review their plans.
The second highest competition is for many clubs Financially very demandingsince the costs are comparable to the Niké League, but clubs have much less income from television, marketing or subsidies.
For the B-Tíy playing the third league, there will be at least 7 U23 and younger players in the competition in the game.
Also, there is also a condition for all three -league clubs that a maximum of four foreign players can enter them.
Three can also advance
The composition of the third highest competition will also be influenced by the descent from II. League and practices into it.
At present, the second league has only 14 participants, so it descends only the last one. According to the current table, it is Humenné, which falls into III. East League.
From III. Both winners are progressing. In the east leads with a relatively great lead Slávia TU Košice.
In the West, the situation is still tangled, the first four teams divide only two points. The lehot is currently under the head.
If II. The league was supposed to have 16 participants, and the third club should also advance. Only the teams from the second place can advance to the second highest competition.
However, the interpretation of the rules can also enter the game. If it is not a « procedure », but a « inclusion of the club in the competition », it will also open the opportunities to the clubs from the third or even lower partitions.
