“The narrowness and opacity of the refereeing system in Russian football creates and accumulates a negative background” – Gafin

Chairman of the board of directors “Dynamo » Dmitri Gafin told that the closed nature of the refereeing system in Russian football accumulates negativity and the level of distrust towards it, as well as the statements of the governor of the Samara region Vyacheslav Fedorishchev became a catalyst.

On Tuesday, the governor of the Samara region, Vyacheslav Fedorishchev, said that one of the officials of the “Wings of the Soviets” informed him of a debt of 36 million rubles to “criminals involved in the corruption of the corps of ‘Russian football refereeing’. .” Later, the leader of the RPL, Alexander Alaev, said that Fedorishchev’s statements should be taken seriously. The president of the RPL also added that the League monitored the work of the judicial system and formulated a number of proposals to improve its efficiency and transparency.

— Do you think the whole problem with Fedorishchev’s statements could have been avoided if the judges had been more open?

— When the work of the entire justice system is open, this reduces the degree of distrust in it. Distrust has been building for years – and now a catalyst has appeared in the form of statements by the governor of the Samara region. We are for the transparency of the system. It seems to me that transparency for all participants in the process will make it easier to understand what is happening and how everything is happening. While the narrowness and opacity of the system creates and accumulates a background of negative information,” Gafin told .
