Contents

At the semi-finals, in match between Vladislav Varna and Levski Sofia was not judged to be played to extra time due to insufficient light to continue the game. Vladislav refused to replay the game on the next day in Sofia, and left for Varna, demanding the replay to be staged there. The Bulgarian National Sports Federation (BNSF) at first set a new date for the replay, which was again to take place in Sofia, then gave in and allowed for the game to be played in Varna, but only if Vladislav and the North-Bulgarian sports federation covered the losses for the Sofia replay. That condition was not met. In the end BNSF and Vladislav did not reach an agreement and the championship was abandoned.
