“On this occasion, we agreed to invite the leaders of the Football Association of the FBiH to investigate the previous events in this season as soon as possible, with special emphasis on the football matches that were played in the second part of the season. The representatives of clubs who attended this meeting made unique requirements for the Football Association of the FBiH:
