An FIGC tribunal has delayed a decision on the Serie B appeals, so the games will go ahead this weekend with 19 teams.

The second division is in chaos, as it was controversially reduced from 22 teams to 19 after Avellino, Bari and Cesena were unable to register.

Appeals have been launched by Pro Vercelli, Siena and Ternana to be readmitted, overturning a decree by FIGC commissioner Roberto Fabbricini.

Catania and Novara also want to be admitted, while Avellino claim they should have been allowed to register.

An FIGC tribunal has delayed a decision on the Serie B appeals, so the games will go ahead this weekend with 19 teams.

The second division is in chaos, as it was controversially reduced from 22 teams to 19 after Avellino, Bari and Cesena were unable to register.

Appeals have been launched by Pro Vercelli, Siena and Ternana to be readmitted, overturning a decree by FIGC commissioner Roberto Fabbricini.

Catania and Novara also want to be admitted, while Avellino claim they should have been allowed to register.

Today their appeals were heard by the Tribunale Federale Nazionale, chaired by Cesare Mastrocola, but no judgement was reached.

Pro Vercelli, Siena and Ternana had requested a delay as they also have appeals before the Consiglio di Stato, while Novara agreed to accept the decision of the judiciary.

The FIGC will therefore make no decision until at least Monday, before which there will be another round of both Serie B and Serie C, featuring the teams involved.
