Today's News columnist Johan Esk thinks that Östersunds FK has engaged in "economic doping".

- What makes this kind of scandal so sad is that the district court considers that the club, through its chairman, has engaged in financial doping - but the club receives hardly any penalty at all. It is like an athlete has doped but is allowed to retain the medal.

The club is not punished with sports, how should you understand it?

- Football's rules completely fail when exposed to really tough tests by civil society. It is as if it is more important that there is peace and quiet internally than to reflect what has happened in reality. Then it will be like this.

If the verdict states that you have been cheated, why are there no consequences?

- There is a section which says that if the club has engaged in such financial irregularities that it has damaged the reputation of the sport, then it can be punished. But then the covenant must begin by stepping down from the stand. This whole case has been run by journalists, tax authorities and lawyers. The union has been constantly watching, frightened for this to happen.

- If you now "throw down" Östersund and then Kindberg is freed in court, then should you move them up? This is a nightmare for the union.
