Why Does My Cat Bite A Blanket And Moan

The precedent

OF THOMAS RADEMACHER

(RP) How much is the home win against the UW HC Neuhausen worth? In the second division, the Lions are back within striking distance to the top - if the club on Saturday is not occupied by a point loss.

What the Bergische HC has done wrong? After a red card against Hendrik Pekeler has the club at the Handball Bundesliga (HBL), ie the union of the first and second division, the written confirmation obtained that the pivot may take up to a match lock. "We did not know that there is any misunderstanding," explains BHC manager Stefan Adam. According to the TV could Pekeler Please take the field again and played well in the games after the HSC Coburg and against HSG Frankfurt.

The six points that has brought the BHC in the three games, are now at stake. The three opposing clubs have questioned the eligibility of handball because Pekeler the red card in a reserve to use for the league level had been involved. The league certainly not subject to the HBL, but the handball association Niederrhein (HVN), whose rules provide for a suspension for two weeks instead of a game. That service would Pekeler against Bittenfeld not allowed to play and also in Coburg and against Frankfurt may not be used.

binding commitment

"That's why we wanted to have a binding commitment," says Adam. "The decision that Hendrik on HBL-level is allowed to play again, is indeed useful. Why should a league referees have the privilege to block a league player for two weeks while this is not an impartial in the second division do?" A valid question. The requested review of the three clubs were initially positive for the BHC, but now deals, the Federal Court of Sports of the German Handball Federation (DHB) with the case. That will make a decision on Saturday about the precedent. have

That left the three clubs and after review by the HBL is not loose, the BHC manager a piece takes personally: "I have no sympathy for this approach, the 54 clubs in the First and Second League. to the penalty to suspend a player for a red card for a game, agreed. The procedure is not what these clubs and wanted to have decided. " Should the federal sports court to decide on Saturday that the IPL not to Pekeler may use would entitle the impact is hardly conceivable. The BHC could face up to six points deduction, which could mean a midfield place with 13:13 points. It is clear that a penalty against the Lions would have a very bad aftertaste. Adam explains why, before that, in the event of a negative decision further legal way: "We will exhaust our resources."
