High-ranking official of the SPG Ladies: Shock threat with a weapon!
There are shocking allegations in Vorarlberg women's football that drag the entire team and the responsible club into a scandal. A former high-ranking official from the women's Bundesliga team Dornbirn/Lustenau is said to have threatened several players with a firearm in a disturbing incident. According to reports, this incident occurred during a meeting before an important game. In the locker room, the official not only showed the weapon, but also used drastic words to express an unmistakable threat: If the team didn't win, he wanted to use the weapon. To further reinforce the threat, he even put cartridges on the table, like oe24 reported.
The players' reaction was immediate and decisive: five players immediately terminated their contracts with the club and left the club in a hurry. These bold steps followed the threat of the official, who also offered a bet of 500 euros, in which the players would pay this amount to the club in the event of a defeat. This shock wave also attracted the attention of the police, who have now launched criminal investigations against the officials responsible. FC Dornbirn reacted immediately to the allegations and made it clear that the accused official no longer holds any office and was removed from the club register vorarlberg.orf.at.
Investigations and responsibility
Those responsible for the two clubs, which also include FC Lustenau, emphasize the importance of a transparent investigation of the incident and announced their close cooperation with the authorities. They clearly distanced themselves from the allegations and assured that neither psychological nor physical violence would be tolerated in sport or in society. Chairman Gerhard Ölz emphasized that although the accused official denied the entire allegations, a mutual agreement was reached to resign from all functions in order to avoid any possible burden on the clubs.
What is particularly explosive is the proximity of the incident to a recently canceled derby game between SCR Altach and SPG FC Lustenau/FC Dornbirn Ladies, which raises questions about possible connections. Officially the cancellation was due to unplayable pitch conditions due to snowfall, but the current allegations could point to deeper problems. However, the presumption of innocence applies.
