OPINION | Cape Town offside over venue swap

We are saying that even if football is not a priority for the stadium, the city cannot be informing the PSL club only days before hosting a match that the stadium is not available. It leaves a lot of questions.

Football, like any other sport, deserves respect. To act like football doesn't matter in a country where it's the number one sport is not the right thing to do. If Cape Town City's owners take their club elsewhere - as Comitis has threatened - it would simply open up the floor for those who are showing football the middle finger to continue doing as they please.The least football people deserve is some respect. You don't do this by giving them four days' notice that their home - where they have chosen to play their home games - is not available.
