Most clubs in the Erding district welcome the deadline that the association has now set.
Erding - If the "almost unrestricted training" is not possible by May 3rd at the latest, the point round will probably be terminated prematurely.
For the first time, the Bavarian Football Association (BFV) has given a specific date in connection with an end of the season.
The league cup stands on even thinner feet.
The BFV believes it is no longer possible to hold this competition, “should no nationwide training with contact in Bavaria be possible from April 19”.
This is in a press release from the BFV.
Accordingly, the board passed a four-point plan on Tuesday evening in a video conference on how to deal with the season.
If the start of training is delayed, the league cup should be canceled at district, district and association level.
This regulation does not apply to the regional league, a separate decision will be made here, according to the BFV announcement.
Ascent and descent according to quotient regulation
With regard to the point round, the BFV does not want to decide alone.
If training is not yet possible on May 3rd, “a decision must be made to abort the association rounds.
For this purpose, all clubs are included before the decision of the association board by obtaining an opinion ”, writes the BFV.
In the event of abandonment, the quotient rule applies to promotion and relegation - "with the elimination of relegation games".
Further points of the four-step plan: The BFV considers gaming operations under the condition of negative corona tests "not feasible in the area".
The Toto Cup should not be changed yet.
Praise from Wartenberg and Hohenpolding
"I think it's good that deadlines have been set," says Hohenpolding's player-coach Thomas Bachmaier.
"Then you at least know how and when it will continue or not." If necessary, it would have to be stopped.
“The main thing is that we can play a relatively normal 21/22 season.” Ernst Halir, head of soccer at TSV Wartenberg, also welcomes “that now comes a statement that has certainly already been discussed in every club.
The League Cup is certainly a good thing, but pulling it through with hanging and choking is not possible.
The point games are more important. ”Halir hopes“ that we will finish the league ”.
The prerequisite for this is a four-week preparation period.
"If that is not the case, or if the incidence values continue to rise, it will probably not be possible to end the season."
Skeptical climbers and foresters
Thomas Greckl, 2nd department head of Rot-Weiß Klettham, thinks the league cup is no longer relevant: “It would have been a great alternative to fill free weekends.
But it looks a lot like there won't be any free weekends until June 30th.
So I don't understand why they are still holding on to it. ”Greckl also pleads for a minimum of four weeks of unrestricted training in order to start this season again at all.
“And then the sporting end of the season would only be possible with games during the week.
In the meantime, we in the club tend to believe that a permanent break-off is the most sensible thing.
But we take it as it comes. "
Also Albert Bowinzki.
Press spokesman for FC Forstern, pleads for an end.
“It's nice that there is this four-step plan.
But we are so far away from being able to enter the square at all without penalty at the moment.
That's why I see zero chance for this season.
And to be honest: Whether we still play one or the other game, this season won't be more representative either. ”Bowinzki confesses that he has simply given up hope.
All the more he is looking forward to "sensible preparation for the 2021/22 season".
TG and FC Erding expect relegation
For FC Erding, an early end of the season would mean relegation to the district class.
Nevertheless, Ralf Sandner believes the BFV's approach is the right one.
“As an amateur athlete, you need three weeks of preparation in order to survive the season without injury.” A restart at Whitsun would still be possible.
“After that it doesn't make any sense.
But then you have to say: The BFV really tried everything, but simply didn't have a chance. "

Benji Tas, player-coach of FC Türkgücü, sounds frustrated.
“How can we still talk about football when Ms. Merkel threatens a mega lockdown?
Everyone is aware that we now have nothing to say and should wait and see. ”For his team it is a shame“ that the league cup is in the A ... ”.
After all, this competition was considered the last straw for the relegation-threatened district classists.
"But the main thing is that we can do sports again at some point."
FC Eitting: Points round with weekly match days is possible
FC Eitting, says its chairman Fred Neudecker, would have no problem “if we had to forego the league cup”.
However, he considers a point round with weekly game days to be feasible.
"Aborting it would be a shame, but if there is no game approval, there is almost nothing else left."
District league clubs are not surprised
For Berni Schöberl (TSV Dorfen), both ultimatums came as no surprise: “Despite everything, the schedule remains very tight, and nothing more can happen.
I'm curious to see how it works with the different infection levels in the districts.
A game during the week in Teisendorf, for example, would be very sporty for us. "
Robert Hartmann (FC Finsing) had expected the route of the BFV so. “Amateur sport depends on the decisions made in politics. Even if we don't like it, we have to follow the guidelines. ”In Finsing, the forced break can at least be used sensibly. "The contribution of the members to the project of the new grandstand is already twice as high as originally planned."
