Union’s Appeal Against Suspension of Defender Burgess for Brussels Derby

The sanction was known on Friday at the end of the day: a firm suspension match, plus a second suspended match. The Union had until Sunday noon to appeal, which the club did not do, happy to be able to count on the boss of its defense for the Brussels derby next weekend. But now, the Prosecutor’s Office also had the possibility of appealing, which Prosecutor Ebe Verhaegen did, considering that this 1+1 was insufficient in his eyes.

If the desire to appeal was transmitted to the club on Saturday in the second part of the day, the appeal itself was filed on Sunday morning and the information only officially arrived on Sunday afternoon at the Union , by email, at 3:08 p.m. During the match, therefore. Timing to say the least strange and little appreciated by the Union. Blessin could therefore have counted on Burgess this Sunday against Cercle. Is it ultimately a communication problem? In any case, the Union may well call into question the entire procedure during this appeal.

The great English defender who watched the match from the stands this Sunday, will also be in the stands at Lotto Park next Sunday… unless the Union wins its case on these procedural problems.
