The match between Meteor and Teplice ended in a 2:1 victory for the hosts. It wasn’t much. In a competition where there is no risk of relegation, almost all players available at the moment usually have a chance during the match. After the first half, North Bohemians replaced five players…
Scandal! The recruiter and Gedeon were said to have fallen out with the referee, alcohol and the police were involved
Where was the problem? At the end of the match, coach David Köstl was charged by Vnuk reversing his original decision; The young glaziers are denied a corner kick and the match ends. When, after the final whistle, the North Bohemian coach asked the referee about the reason for his statement, he was met with an arrogant wall. Events followed, described differently by the Teplice team and the referee.
In his report, the nephew claims that Köstl cursed him, then he was joined by his colleague Patrik Gedeon and also by Pavel Verbíř, who watched the fight as a spectator. Everyone reportedly demanded that Köstl’s statement “what the hell, man, you’re whistling, you’re a scoundrel!” was not included in the record.
More insults and threats followed. And also an oddity. Tepličtí says they smelled alcohol on Petr Kozlík, the second assistant delegate from Prague, so they called the police and tried to keep the referees’ shamrock in the locker room until they arrived.

Meanwhile, home organizers are said to have brought beers to the umpires’ booth to make it look like the umpires had a drink after the game was called off. After the police arrived, the alcohol was not addressed, in fact, the judges were allowed to leave without issue.
And the disciplinary commission took in referee Josef Vnuk, Verbíř and other Teplice officials and imposed fines and disqualifications on them.
“I would believe Teplice’s version. I have lived my nephew several times, both in the division and in the CFL; I don’t even trust this person to greet you… He was arrogant, quietly laughing in your face, masterful. Simply a first class villain , is famous in eastern Bohemia. Search his name on the Internet and you will see how many articles appear about how he cut someone,” says Fidra bluntly.
The adversary has insulted our nation. I wanted to fight it, the Ukrainian admits
“I have personal experience with Pepíček Vnuk since his training days. He won’t change, although he might start whistling with perspective and fairness when he approaches fifty. I’m not surprised by the guys from Teplice; often go to matches in Prague and exhale the the way they handle referees is like lexaurin or diazepam for coaches,” says Zdeněk Heinzel, who had several shootouts with Vnuk as a coach.
David Petrus, who played in the top competition for Baník Ostrava, also doesn’t have good memories of Vnuk. “I’ve experienced what he’s capable of on the field a couple of times. I think you’ll find many players who have similar experiences with him. An inclined plane wouldn’t surprise me with him, even in the case of youth football. Overall, he was one of those judges which I would call weak.”
They did not treat the Marčaník case like a man, regrets the head of the disciplinary
“The chairman of the committee evaluated the case so that the arbitrator recorded everything correctly. So solved, let’s move on. Did anyone expect anything else? It rarely happens that the committee disagrees with the arbitrator. Ce there are few of them, he doesn’t want to sink any of them”, Petrus is convinced, recently punished for self-insulting.
Heinzel believes that the system is mainly to blame: “Punish the coach with six games and then punish the children? That’s on the head. The coach stands next to the substitute and will be a ‘spectator’. The disciplinarian draws a line and goes forward. FAČR collects fines and takes money from the club and, indeed, from the children. And the nephew will feel like he has already done many times as a moral winner and untouchable. That’s the whole problem”.
