Gigi Becali (67 years old), the owner of FCSB, was fined by the Disciplinary Commission of the Romanian Football Federation (FRF). The financier of the red-blues was complained to the Central Commission of Referees, because of some offensive statements.
Becali had declared about Sebastian Colțescu and Ovidiu Hațegan, among others, after CFR – FCSB, in the 8th stage of the Superliga: “They are already crazy, they have something wrong with them. Let them go to the hospital.”
The request signed by Kyros Vassaras reached the table of the Disciplinary Commission of the FRF. There were several postponements, and on Monday, October 27, the Disciplinary Committee made its decision.
5,000 lei fine for Gigi Becali. The FCSB boss offended the referees after CFR – FCSB 2-2
On August 31, CFR and FCSB finished tied, score 2-2, in stage 8 of the Superliga.
Sebastian Colțescu – Ovidiu Hațegan was the couple who officiated from the position of central – VAR referee at the CFR Cluj – FCSB derby. The champion's financier also received a warning.

Becali claimed then that FCSB should have received two shots from 11 meters. The first, after a hench made by Păun, and the second after Denis Alibec was pulled by Matei Ilie's shirt.
“We haven't seen anything like that for five years. He's pulled by the shirt, it's not 11 meters, that one hits the elbow, it's not 11 meters. You should be kicked out of arbitration. Their mind, their eyes do not reason. Dad, go to the hospital and get your head checked out. Go, me, to the field.
Well, Hațegane, go, well, to the doctor, because he is a doctor, or go to your colleagues to see if you still have something in that Bible, to check that Bible. You too, Coltescule, have had problems in your life and maybe you still have some broken guinea pig problems. That this is fate”, Becali said then.
