Following the disciplinary proceedings opened by the EHF on 10 May 2011 against THW Kiel (GER) and their coach Alfred Gislason, after statements made to the media following the 2010/2011 VELUX EHF Champions League quarterfinal match THW Kiel (GER) vs. FC Barcelona Borges (ESP) on 1 May 2011 in Kiel, Germany, the EHF Arbitration Tribunal has made the following decision:
Alfred Gislason is sanctioned with a fine of €2,500 and one match exclusion (EHF club competitions). Reason: Derogatory remarks towards the EHF referees and the EHF, which may bring the sport of handball and the EHF into disrepute.
