People who “pack” beads are working against our country – coach of FC Khust

SA Khust is unhappy with the actions of the TCC and wants the UAF to prescribe clear rules for holding the championship among professional teams.

We remind you that earlier the Ukrainian First League club reported that the 25-year-old team player Nikolai Sirash was forcibly detained and taken to the military registration and enlistment office.

The head coach spoke in more detail about this situation. Howdy Vladimir Tsytkin.

“He arrived by train in Khust, and TCC representatives picked him up at the station I think it was illegal, nothing, he was just taken to the military registration and enlistment office, and contacted him disappeared.

We played, and after the match Sirash asked to take a day off because he had a sick child and needed to be taken to the hospital. Kolya went to Kyiv, he is a migrant from Chernigov, lives in Irpen. Sirash was taking care of the child all this time, and yesterday it came back and this happened. Now his wife is alone in Kyiv with a sick child.

They did not abandon him. There is no information about him, Nikolai is not in touch, his phone is turned off. The man was simply kidnapped in broad daylight, without an agenda, without any reason.

Before they took his phone, Kolya managed to dial my assistant and told me everything.

We tried to find out anything yesterday at the military registration and enlistment office, but no one spoke to us or explained anything. They don’t want to talk and won’t even pick up the phone. All we knew was that Sirash was in Mukachevo; I don’t know where they are taking him.

The club wrote a letter to the PFL and UAF. We have informed everyone, but so far no response. We don’t know what to do next. For example, FC is coming Chernigov come to us for a match, and they are “packed” at the station. Or it will happen to us on the road. Or they will go to the stadium and take the whole team from there; five or six of us were of conscription age. I cannot guarantee that we will play the First League match against Chernigov on Saturday. We have to do something. The President Howdy I tried to call Kyiv yesterday, but… Honestly, nobody cares.

It’s not that they don’t know what to do. What’s the problem? If we hold competitions, we must understand the rules and conditions. The UAF shall provide any guarantees for the holding of competitions. During competitions, professional clubs must be protected so that such situations do not occur, at least for the duration of the championship or for the duration of the players’ contracts. From May 18, when the Mobilization Law goes into effect, everything will be more intense.

If nothing changes, the Ukrainian championship teams will simply withdraw because they cannot ensure cooperation for the players.

Unfortunately, in our country the laws do not work. “Packaging” the beads is a road to nothing. People who do this are doing against our country.

For the players, we have to make a decision. If all must serve, then there is no need to hold a championship;

Football players are no different from other professions. The issue here is not about the players, but about some rules and laws. If we have a championship, there must be guarantees of participation for football players during it. Otherwise, the teams will split up. How do I call a player to Khust, if you just pick him up on the street? What if they take five players, six, ten? There must be some rules!” Tsytkin said in a commentary to Sport-Express Ukraine.
