Ninove refuses football academy ESOA access to football fields, despite reversal by the province: "Club went too far"

Ninove has decided not to allow the ESOA football academy access to its fields, despite a provincial reversal of the municipal council's exclusion decision. The city claims ESOA has violated rules regarding the use of the UiTPAS system and field regulations. Although the province overturned the exclusion from the UiTPAS, the city maintains its stance, citing past issues with the club's adherence to regulations. ESOA denies any wrongdoing and expresses concern over the city's refusal to restore access, stating that it has sought dialogue without success.
