More problems for Newell: AFA came back to remove the two points that had come back

The Court of Appeal finally upheld the fine for breach of the sworn statement of wages corresponding to the previous tournament.

The Court of Appeal of the Argentine Football Federation made a claim to Lanus and again deducted two points from Newell that he had returned last August, which corresponds to the Superliga 2016/17.

It should be recalled that the club Rosario had been sanctioned, in the middle of the economic crisis, with the deduction of three points, because it did not present in time and constituted the affidavit and the free debt before beginning this season.

So much so that the news was published in the official journal and caused another headache to the institution.after the resignation of coach Omar De Felippe. However, Newell's vice president, Cristian D & # 39; Amico, expected that he would not sit back and appeal to the CAS to claim the three points.

The motive of Garnet is purely economic, since it was lower than the ranking of the tournament of 2017, it received less money from the distribution of the Superliga.

After hearing the decision, Newell's published an official statement:

Old Boys of the Athletic Club Newell informs the partners and supporters that, as of the date of the date, the Court of Appeal of the Argentine Football Association, in its resolution of November 27, 2018, published in the bulletin n ° 5568, made the revocation requested by the Athletic Club Lanús against the resolution of this same court of August 7, in which he deducted a point at the CANOB of the final table of the positions of the championship of first division (2017/2018), thus amending the decision of the Disciplinary Tribunal of 24 November 2017. Consequently, our institution receives the authorization of three points, as was the case at first instance.

In the same way, and for the same reasons that supported the request for the first decision, Club Atlético Newell's Old Boys expresses disagreement with the last decision of the Court of Appeal and informs that it will interject new relevant complaints through his lawyers, in order to obtain the return of the points in question, have won legally on the playing field.

Since the first resolution of the sports disciplinary court of the Argentine Football Association, which sanctioned us with the suppression of points, our institution has sought to propose its revision through the official channels envisaged because it considered that they exceeded the provisions of the regulation. and that, for example, on the other hand, its consequences affect both sports and institutional aspects. For all these reasons, the club will continue to fight in all cases of claim for what it considers fair.
