Premier League of Ukraine
Vitaliy Danilov was elected as a temporary acting president on May 27, 2008, when top 16 Ukrainian football clubs declared about Ukrainian Premier League launch.[citation needed]
On July 1, 2009, Danilov won the election and became the league president without 'temporary acting' prefix.
But in July 2009, five Premier League clubs: Arsenal (Kyiv), Dynamo (Kyiv), Dnipro (Dnepropetrovsk), Kryvbas (Kryvy Rig), and Metalist (Kharkov) declared that the elections of the League's president were illegal due to procedure infraction. The representatives of the above-mentioned clubs did not recognize Vitaliy Danilov as the president.

This time most presidents of the Premier League of Ukraine acknowledged Vitaliy Danilov legality.
