"Should we really win the NLB title, we would sit together with our major shareholders prior to the League Qualification," SCL's marketing director Angela Kölliker had told SRF at the end of March. After those announced consulations, the final decision has obviously been made in favor of a potential spot in the National League A as of next season.

"We have the necessary experience and also the commitment to play in the NLA," SC Langenthal's CEO Gian Kämpf lets the public know in the club's press release.
