Option of appeal
Hradec Králové can appeal against the verdict to NBL chief director Zdenek Bříz within 15 days, and according to club general manager Petr Sedmák, they will definitely use this option.
Until the expiry of the appeal period, the result of the match will not be included in the league table.
“There was a fatal error by the home club Royal Falcons. The match was not at all ready and fit to start from a technical point of view. The instant replay system, the table, timers did not work, and spare options such as a stopwatch, a mechanical score indicator and other things were not provided. Therefore, it was decided to cancel. I believe that a similar situation will never happen again,” Kotrč said in an official statement.
