DURBAN - Speculation is mounting that the PSL season may be called off - but Safa’s bosses say they will be “very surprised” if such a move takes place.
In a media conference with the South African Football Journalists Association yesterday afternoon, Safa’s acting chief executive Tebogo Motlanthe said: “It will come as a surprise from us . We’ve all agreed, we’ve all worked hard for four months. It will mean all that work will be going down the drain. It will be a surprise.
“Our intention is to see the league starting but not ignoring the basic fact that we need to save lives. The pressure should not lead us to do wrong things. As long as things are done in a right way, the South African Football Association is very clear: we need football to resume, and we need lives to be saved,” Motlanthe said.“We want to maintain the standard of the league.
