Dynamo Board Chairman Dmitry Gafin commented on the situation surrounding the club’s request to the refereeing department not to appoint referee Sergei Karasev for the team’s matches. Gafin confirmed that he had a personal wish for this referee to not officiate Dynamo matches, but noted that this was solely his position. The appointment of referees for matches is not within our powers. Let’s see when the next time we appoint this referee. I wouldn’t want to see Sergei at our matches. It’s time for us to take a break from each other. And if he gets bored with us, we are ready to provide him with his media outlet. We have an excellent entertainment program before matches, in which Karasev can come out with a guitar, with his music team, and fill in some blanks. As for refereeing, in the near future, neither the club nor our fans will want to meet on the football field. Source link
