Controversy

The Executive Committee of the Slovak Football Association decided to cancel the 2020–21 season in all youth and women's competitions conducted by the Slovak Football Association. At the time of the decision, Partizán Bardejov were in second place, three points behind Slovan who had however played two more matches.[5] Partizán even defeated Slovan in an away match and remained the only undefeated team in the league. Slovak footballer Marek Hamšík expressed support for Partizán.[6]

As a consequence of this decision, Partizán did not apply to the next season and women's football in Bardejov ended due to financial problems. If the club had started in the Champions League, they would have earned prize money of at least €90,000, which would have been enough to fund the club for the next season.[7]
