Mutinous GladAfrica Championship club RoyalAM will finally get their comeuppance as they reportedly will face the Premier Soccer League’s disciplinary committee By Herman_Gibbs IOLsport
“Whatever happens, we are champions. If we don’t win the case, the League won’t start on time .”
Over the past week, Mkhize’s bombastic comments have given way to stony silence, and this may have been a tell-tale sign that she has come to terms with failing to gain automatic promotion to the Premiership for her club. Her wishful thinking may have come about as a result of bad legal advice. It might be that Royal AM were led up the proverbial garden path by the comments of PSL acting chief executive Mato Madlala at a gala dinner hosted by eThekwini Municipality to honour the three local KwaZulu-Natal professional clubs in mid-June.
When touching on the contentious matter of the play-offs she said: “This is not a scandal. This shows our judiciary is respected and allows people to raise their views.“It is a freedom of expressing yourself. We encourage that. We don’t dictate. We say if you feel like you not happy with the decision, it’s your right to appeal the decision until you are satisfied.
“In football, there’s a law that protects everyone, and we don’t dictate. It will be a sad day for football if we decide to dictate.“Even in murder cases, the sentences most of the time takes longer, even six months. Everyone has a right to get a postponement.”What seems clear now is that Royal AM have blown any chance of overturning the verdict to award Sekhukhune United automatic promotion.
