When three laps remain until the end of the season, the Balkans collect 67 points -- five short of the Pristina leader -- writes Periscopi.

And that was too much for the Balkan leadership, which has dismissed it immediately.

After poor results, especially in the last two games, the club has made a decision to interrupt co-operation with Coach Blade Shkembey. We thank him for our indefatigable work and future success”, says the announcement. The Rock was named Balkan coach on December 27th, replacing coach Ismet Munishi, who also had the Balkan club fired even though the team was in first place. Before the Balkans, the last club the Rock had run was KF Teuta in Albania, while in Kosovo it had headed Prizren's KF Freedom. The Balkans, with today's loss, rank in the third position at 69 points, five points less than the leader Pristina, which holds its first position by 72 points, when there are three laps left to develop. The loss by Arberia was second in line, after the one from Drenica last lap.
