According to the web portal irozhlas.cz, Miroslav Černošek’s private company cut 28 million crowns out of the total amount of 120 million, which was to come to the account of the Czech Olympic Committee.
The long-term support of Olympians from the companies Česká pošta, Lesy ČR and ČEZ is a well-known thing. However, it has not been presented that the money goes to the account of the Czech Olympic Committee through the Česká sportovní share, which has been reduced by several million. The mentioned joint-stock company belongs to Černošek. According to the portal, he explains that he used the commissions obtained, for example, to pay expenses associated with the participation of representatives of the above-mentioned state-owned companies in the Olympic Games in London.
Mutually advantageous contract
The contract was said to be mutually beneficial. “The commission was normally treated by a contract with the consent of the management of the Czech Olympic Committee and addressed issues that the Czech Olympic Committee and the Czech Olympic Committee could not solve at the time,” comments Miroslav Černošek for the Czech Radio website.
18 percent of each concluded contract flowed into Česká sportovní. “18 percent were advantageous for us,” commented Jiří Kejval, head of the Czech Olympic Committee, and continued: “Actually, we were not at the meeting, we talked informally about some amounts, but we did not see the final contract between our partner and the broker. . “
The current head of the Czech forests is surprised that the money intended for athletes was not sent directly, but through Czech Sports. According to the findings of the server, in the period 2012-2016, Lesy ČR sent forty million crowns to the Olympians, of which twenty-one arrived at the account of the Czech Olympic Committee.
“I did not know that. I don’t understand at all why there should be a commission, but I’m not an expert. As a layman, I would say that it is unnecessary, “explains Daniel Szórád, the former head of Lesů ČR, who led the company from 2014 to 2018, for the website.
Part of the commission went to Ostrava
“Lesy ČR was an advertising partner of Zlatá tretra, which is why the difference in finances,” Miroslav Černošek answers the server.
The reactions of other participants in this “advantageous” partnership between state or semi-state companies, Olympians and the company of Miroslav Černošek are vague and vague.
Today, the 72-year-old sports businessman from Prostějov, who managed to bring to the Czech Republic, for example, the athletic mega-star Usain Bolt, Canadian-American NHL matches or tennis superstar Roger Federer or Rafael Nadal, is gradually withdrawing into the background. However, the handwriting of Miroslav Černošek will never be forgotten by tennis fans.
It was he who managed to put together teams capable of repeatedly winning the Davis Cup or the Fed Cup for the Czech Republic. These days he is one of the co-organizers of the women’s tennis tournament J&T Banka Ostrava Open 2020, which takes place in the Ostravar Arena.
