Earlier in the day, Öi chairman Joacim Nordh said an additional board meeting had been called to discuss a possible takeover of Göteborg FC’s place at the damallsvenskan, on which SVT was the first to report. .
– We talked a bit about it last night. We respect our women’s team and have made a strategic decision about how it will grow in the future. But when this came up with the ITC, I think it is my responsibility to see if we should re-evaluate the issue at the board. It doesn’t get any stranger than that, Nordh told GP.
– So I have incredible respect for the issue and the people who are involved in it, both in our own women’s team and in the CCI.
Regarding the opinion of the members on the matter, Joacim Nordh said the following.
– We have seen it more as a board issue and not an annual meeting issue. Playing football is not a question of gender, but both boys and girls should have the opportunity to play in Öis. Whether it will be a question from the annual meeting or not, I cannot answer at the moment, says Joacim Nordh.
But now the decision has been made and it is clear that Öis does not want to merge and take over Göteborg FC’s place at the damallsvenskan.
Öi’s statement on the matter was posted on the club’s website after the evening’s extra board meeting ended, stipulating, among other things, the following.
“As time is short, it is unfortunately not possible to fully investigate the issue. In addition to a thorough investigation, the issue must also be discussed at an annual meeting and members have the right to make decisions. Currently, there is unfortunately nothing we can contribute to ensure that Gothenburg as a city has a representative who will play Allsvenskan football in Gothenburg in 2021. “
However, according to information from Expressen, no last word has been said on the club’s survival.
Göteborg FC is said to be saved at the damallsvenskan with the help of sponsors.
Coach Mats Gren in a text message to the players’ team will announce that “everything will be fine” and that more information will be communicated soon.
