KV Kortrijk suffers loss due to cancellation of match because of storm Austen: "We cannot recover revenue during the rescheduled match"

KV Kortrijk faces financial losses due to the cancellation of a match against KV Mechelen caused by storm Austen. The club had to cancel around 200 staff and external services last minute, incurring costs that cannot be recovered. COO Jelle Brulez noted that missed revenues from VIPs and businesses cannot be compensated during the rescheduled match. Although there is strong interest from regular supporters, it won't offset the losses from corporate clients. Brulez criticized the Pro League for making unilateral decisions without consulting all stakeholders, emphasizing the need for better collaboration in the future. The match remains crucial for the team's standings.
