Austria - 21 June, 2007
Adjust font size:
Former Austrian champion GAK suffered more than just a relegation, dropping at least two tiers. After being relegated from the nation's top flight, the club lost a legal fight to play in the second division.
That means a club that won the Austrian Bundesliga title three seasons ago now is facing the prospect of playing in the amateur ranks.
The club has endured financial woes, and was booted from the top flight after a 28-point penalty for many financial irregularities that led the club to administration.
The league's highest court then told GAK that its finances would keep it even from the second division.
