It lends itself to serious conflict of interest and flies right in the face of proper corporate governance.
Now a picture of the PSL vs Mamelodi Sundowns and their coach, Pitso Mosimane, has been created and the league is doing very little to dispel this notion exceInstead of making things better, this week, after a peeved and obviously frustrated Mosimane vented: “You don’t know how many points you have in the bag; this thing takes too long. You can’t fight when you don’t know how much ammunition you have.
“Rules are rules but deal with this thing as quickly as possible, man, there are a lot of mixed feelings.” 2. The league does not generally comment on matters such as these, which must be dealt with responsibly and with the affected persons.

SBu_Mseleku I listened to pitso acknowledging that Sundowns was wrong, all he's saying is hand out the sentence so that they know where they stand, is that so difficult to comprehend, no one is disputing that Sundowns broke the rules.
SBu_Mseleku Thidiela spoke about this but people didn't wonna listen to him coz of the statements against Hlungwane .They all wanted him to be burn in football.
Mphele_ SBu_Mseleku Y u did not ask this question whn it was Ajax C Town
SBu_Mseleku You are the 1st brave Journalist in sports that is not biased and call a spade a spade. Dictatorship must End. May God bless your craft and grow you more and more worldwide.
king_khalil_12 SBu_Mseleku Khoza must go
SBu_Mseleku Conflict of interest has been a characteristic of south African football at every level of the game for decades... The fact that we continue to allow it to exist is beyond me.
SBu_Mseleku Most clubs owners are sitting in the board of PSL ,all these issue because pirates is on the verge of winning the league.all these years journalist have never questioned Dr Khoza position,suddenly people are all up in their feelings.
SBu_Mseleku First of all Sundowns knows the law . They must not hide with the chairman
SBu_Mseleku when are we having a permanent PSL CEO?it must be one hell of a job that needs skills and qualifications not found on earth
SBu_Mseleku This is just nonsense and it must stop as soon as possible
SBu_Mseleku To be honest that shouldn't be allowed and I find it very unfair, come to think of it shouldn't one of the SAFA members to be the PSL chairman based on the fact that PSL is under SAFA
SBu_Mseleku When Sundowns was winning back to back Championship it was never a problem now that they are about to loose points based on offence they have committed its a conflict on interest,You people will complain about everything,I dnt think Khoza elected himself in that Position
SBu_Mseleku But it has been happening for more than a decade.... Why now
SBu_Mseleku So true... This article shows how old fashioned is the PSL leadership style and it’s nothing professional. I hope many journalists could write more about this and inform the fans about a rot in the league.
SBu_Mseleku Very unfortunate for a senior journalist of your calibre to peddle rumours & baseless allegations while completely disregading if the case against Sundowns has merits. If you are familiar with the NSL constitution you would know that the chairman will always come from the clubs
Mphele_ SBu_Mseleku They are treating psl like taxi industry
SBu_Mseleku Tell you friend Pitso to shut his mouth and do his job that is to coach the team not to involve himself with boardroom affairs because it's clear that he knows nothing about that's why he find himself in this situation in the first place.
SBu_Mseleku We can not blame Khoza for failing to uphold the rules of the game he never advised Pitso to field Wayne, therefore the club is guilty as whole not the Psl. As for Mr Mseleku you should encourage the understanding practicing of the law instead of defending your friend
SBu_Mseleku I think sundowns and their coach are attention seekers. On my the club have relevant people to handle such disputes not the coach. The coach is arrogant and think sundowns deserve a special treatment. Next time they better read the rules of the game, to avoid blaming khoza.
SBu_Mseleku Leadership right there. Surfing in the uncharted article with hard cold facts...
SBu_Mseleku Mseleku comments are irresponsible especially coming from a senior journalist, PSL is the best league in Africa & that cannot change because sundowns broke the rules and want to do so with impunity
SBu_Mseleku Khoza is a hypocrite 🙄
SBu_Mseleku What's funny is that this issue of khoza being chairman is brought forward because it suits pitsos agenda. Isn't kaizer more or less in the same boat as khoza? Follow the rules and you wont worry about khoza being the chairman of the psl. Simple logic
SBu_Mseleku Is that a trick question? Why are pirates offices few streets away from PSL offices? It's simple. It's one and the same office hence we have a permanent acting CEO who also held a player at gunpoint.
SBu_Mseleku masandawana did Khoza tell you to field Arrendse? Okay , Mina as a Pirates fan I say Dr Khoza makehle esihlalweni and run Orlandopirates. Then we will see Psl turn into SAFA.
SBu_Mseleku SBu_Mseleku Hayi mkhuluwa, uwatye wonke 🙌🏽🙌🏽 brilliant piece 💪🏾
SBu_Mseleku Uyadakwa
SBu_Mseleku Ask yourself how did Downs win the Caf CL.Rules need to be respected n so far Dr Khoza n his board have done exceptional job.
SBu_Mseleku Ja Vhele,.... This thing a yi tiri bcoz loko wo languta kahle,... Sundowns yi tlanga both CAF and PSL and PSL is not doing anything to postpone those games to give sundowns sufficient time to prepare for CAF.
SBu_Mseleku How can you have a Board of Governors comprising of team owners and then have a chairperson of that Board who is not a team owner? Playing the man here and not the ball. Poor journalism at its worst.
SBu_Mseleku Is he an Executive Chairperson? Is the structure, the Board of Directors relevant and appropriately constituted? What of the constitution of the PSL itself, has he or the Board if Directors violated it in any way? Those are the kind of arguments i expected, not such pettiness
SBu_Mseleku How many seasons sundowns play game in hand mybe 3 seasons n they were winning those games it was fine why noise now,u will win CAF CHAMPIONSHIP KA BOYELLOW MASANDAWANA STOP POLITICS IN FOOTBALL PIRATES COLLECTED THEIR POINTS FAIR
SBu_Mseleku Coz sundowns is not winning their game in hand right,khoza is not playing any role in pirates winning a league,CAF CALENDAR IS THE PROBLEM HER,THAN IT MEANS PITSO DON'T KNOW PSL RULES HOW CAN U PLAY SOMEONE WHO IS NOT ON THE LIST IS NOT HAPPENING THAT
SBu_Mseleku You forget that the chairman you're bad mouthing is the brain behind the financial wellness of all PSL clubs play equal football&afford any player from anywhere.push him out of PSL so that Pirates can have all his expertise&resources
SBu_Mseleku As an experienced journalist, u wrote mail & gaurdian already published.. atleast I expected ugcwalise on policies of pal when it comes to DC and acting CEO ungahambi nomoya.... article was a waste
SBu_Mseleku When Masandawana was charged orlandopirates was not leading the PSL table but BidvestWits so shut up
SBu_Mseleku 😢Pitso and his cry-babies
SBu_Mseleku Ubab' Khoza and the board are doing great to run the psl as an entity. Lots of benefits have been introduced for the clubs, players and psl is making money. Rules are rules, Pitso needs to accept that. Ayeke ipolitiki
SBu_Mseleku Mr khoza need to go. He is running psl like his won spaza shop. We need new leaders who dont have team in pls or nfd
SBu_Mseleku I would understand if Motsepe complaining coach can't do his job and now Khoza is a problem. Sundowns made a mistake. Sundowns need to be professional and play the games and get the points to win the league finish and klaar
SBu_Mseleku Bra Sbu, the PSL was scolded about this by honorable Motimele as far back as 20 years ago! We have however seen a worsening of Corporate Governance with the league chaired and CEOd by team owners since then! AbsaPrem
SBu_Mseleku A veteran sports writer only sees this now, really. Lousy argument, report about the success of the league, not bias reporting.
SBu_Mseleku 2 I'm surprise ngu Pitso when he say that👇, how did they won CAFCL and how long that decision was taken,you know the answer yhaa DC is fail it take long to resolve issues but its not only this one for Sundowns so its not like the are being targeted, DC is fail here.
SBu_Mseleku Bra Sbu, two things tata we need to look at it before we throw stones to Khoza, 1 PSL was just cleaning the air becz bekungathi bafuna i Sundowns i fail CAFCL so after that letter now we know who want those date topic close.
SBu_Mseleku You can't be chairman of the club and chairman of the league never only in south Africa and it drags us backwards khoza must fall
SBu_Mseleku Good narrative
SBu_Mseleku Ok Dr Khoza resigns then what The fact that Sundowns fielded an ineligible player goes away!! C’mon!!
SBu_Mseleku You can't be a player and the referee same time. Cooperate governance does not allow someone to act for three years. You can't hold the same position for more than ten years, you bound to get comfortable and start to become a dictator.
SBu_Mseleku Mr Thidiela was suspended for trying to raise this issue you can't be a player & referee at the same
SBu_Mseleku Why is everyone trying to turn Sundowns technical team mess to I Khoza?
SBu_Mseleku Then the PSL eternal acting CEO is also a CV club chairman, what mockery is this
SBu_Mseleku If Sundowns dint field Wayne Arrendse do you think Will be sitting here debating personal interests Mxm
SBu_Mseleku Khoza will not go anywhere. People who understand PSL and where it comes from will never agree to that. Khoza together with other chairmans made what PSL is today. Have you heard any of the club owners complaining? The only people you will hear are those that contribute nothing.
Schooler1__ SBu_Mseleku Sbu, who paid u? This reeks of sum1 from Pta. This is not you, man...You've always been bigger n better than this.
SBu_Mseleku Raising this is good. But the timing suggests an intent to manipulate. There's also no evidence of wrongdoing so there's now the move to unseat Khoza on potentialities? Sundowns was wrong, they must trust the PSL chairmaned by 'afflicted' Khoza as much as they have in the past.
SBu_Mseleku Nepotism
SBu_Mseleku Well written article by a neutral and he sees the way all the masandawana are seeing them, ironic neh! Masandawana MSFCfanVlog
SBu_Mseleku I also question the acting PSL CEO and penalty that was awarded yesterday if you get what I mean
dbnbranch SBu_Mseleku Khoza must go plz
SBu_Mseleku critical PSL decisions are taken in the bedroom. I still miss the Charity Spectacular. But a noctagenarian owns PSL
SBu_Mseleku The PSL is faction in the ANC led SAFA....just like you have CR17 and NDZ. Clubs can't risk to delegate a neutral in a bitter battle for Power(SAFA)
mpexo SBu_Mseleku Irvin Khosa is bullying PSL and this can not continue like this, SA football should grow to the international standard but if we still have Khoza we as a Chairman we are going nowhere. This Sundowns issue is worrying and it should be addressed appropriately. It's time Up for him.
SBu_Mseleku When points were deducted from Ajax there was no issue of conflict of interests
SBu_Mseleku We need an independent PSL / SAFA for our soccer to grow in South Africa. If you go to LFA leagues, most administrators also are club owners - it's the norm in SA
SBu_Mseleku Ningazonya misoonu
Bobby_M97 SBu_Mseleku Now we have an acting CEO,who has being acting for 2 years and too close to the Chairman,something is not right in PSL
SBu_Mseleku Acting CEO of PSL and the chairman are both club owner . Italian mafias and the love for pizza 🍕
SBu_Mseleku Irvin Khoza: Orlando Pirates chairman SAFA Chairman PSL Chairman South African President: A highly placed source told me how Cyril is cornered and DD is running the show with instructions from his friend Irvin Khoza. Apparently DD is always seen in DK at Khozas House.
SBu_Mseleku 'now a picture of PSL vs Downs has been created'SBu_Mseleku created by who? since when is PSL responsible for utterances by Downs, its coach and supporters? What rules has been broken by PSL in all the instances you mention?how is Pirates unduly benefiting over other clubs?
SBu_Mseleku They tried last year but failed. He is making sure this time around
SBu_Mseleku When you start failing to separate the love of your team and your work, you begin to start question other people position because of your insecurities.
SBu_Mseleku He must just resign at the end of the season. 😑
SBu_Mseleku If they decide ti kill they business let it be...
SBu_Mseleku Ufuna kuphathe bani mhlonishwa uSbu Mseleku? Can you imagine umuntu ongenayo ngisho itekisi eyodwa athi uzoba ushiyameni we tax association. Ngabe kuncono kukhala omunye wabanikazi wamaqembu naye futh ngeke eze laph cos dy hv platform Noma kungaba ubani ophathayo ukhona oyokhala
SBu_Mseleku The tooth fairy mandoda
SBu_Mseleku 'Would PSL have attached the letter had it been from Pirates or Arrows'SBu_Mseleku there's record of Pirates being in similar& even worse situations before..Has Pirates or its coaches ever assumed such a position of bemoaning non-existent conspiracies,casting aspersions on PSL?
mpexo SBu_Mseleku We thank Mkhulu for the good work he has done for South African football but it’s time for him to go.
SBu_Mseleku 'conflict of interest' true. 👌
SBu_Mseleku I totally agree with this guy
SBu_Mseleku Serious PSL needs it’s chairman and Khoza must just focus on pirate
SBu_Mseleku My point exactly
SBu_Mseleku Level the playing field.
SBu_Mseleku OfficialPSL something to think about.
SBu_Mseleku I remember you Karabo_Mokwele alluding to this.
SBu_Mseleku SBUdaPRO
SBu_Mseleku Did sundowns break psl rules or not ? When ajax was docked points and relegated was it PSL vs Ajax as well ?
SBu_Mseleku How many years years has PSL being around Why now
SBu_Mseleku Retirement time for Khoza and the league should be restructured to comply and meet the standard of corporate governance than running it as a mafia empire.
mpexo SBu_Mseleku Amen.
SBu_Mseleku Well in my knowledge chairman is being elected..
SBu_Mseleku This Conflict of Interest should have been long raised by Auditors. It shows middle finger to Good Corporate Governance
IndWorldThinker SBu_Mseleku I never understood it too..
SBu_Mseleku The world doesn't revolve around sundowns. Though the issue of the acting ceo is valid. No one is out to get sundowns. They are no more special than any other team including those in the NFD... So one must not insinuate that they are being treated unfairly.
SBu_Mseleku when sundowns won champions league threw the back of same scenario no one complained now the situation is vice verser it not fair rules are rules
SBu_Mseleku This is a rubbish story
NeoMolefe_SA SBu_Mseleku Club Owners/Presidents/Chairperson must not be PSL chairpersons, it's a conflict of interest and as you can see now with Khoza, he's doing all he can to make sure Pirates wins the league from the boardroom.
Mirasse_ SBu_Mseleku This is so very true and profound, for some everyone seems to scared to raise the conflict of interest ya Irvin Khoza. There's always a string or two that he pulls for Pirates every season, he tried same last season and Ajax got relegated. David Thidiela is one of his victims.
SBu_Mseleku Kaizer Chiefs was once banned because they had to chose to honor the PSL or a continental competition, they didn't call on the chairman to step down. there only issue is, it's been a long time since he has occupied that position.
SBu_Mseleku Who was the match commissioner that allowed this incident to happen in the 1st place
SBu_Mseleku Mr Mseleku may God bless you sir bcz next season you might not get acriddation but this article is important.
SBu_Mseleku Club owners must grow a pair and stop this Mugabe lite
SBu_Mseleku This Sbu guy is sent by Sundowns ,we wouldn't be in this situation had Sundowns followed the rules & Pitso is not very good with rules he once thought he qualified Bafana for AFCON only to find out he didn't understand the rules.
SBu_Mseleku Ijooooooooo dis Rats will eat him alive like dey were eating cables at loftus stru,wait till dey call for boycot of city press lol
SBu_Mseleku Sundowns broke PSL admin rules, not FIFA, so point deductions is not a suitable punishment as Wayne is properly registered
SBu_Mseleku I said it long time ago....but no one listened
BigLation SBu_Mseleku Its just not right
Si6usiso SBu_Mseleku Guys did Khoza tell sundowns to field Arrends?
iamNtane SBu_Mseleku Conflict of interest
SBu_Mseleku What about the politician who is a SAFA president?
SBu_Mseleku Khoza must fall
SBu_Mseleku People like Pitso can cause havoc and destroy any structure especially when most of us incl journalists are fueling something that is not there.
SBu_Mseleku The real capture of the South African football... We really need a commission of enquiry on this matter... All former and resigned PSL CEOs should be called to testify...
SBu_Mseleku 'All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.' By George Orwell
SBu_Mseleku Thank you bra Sbu, informative piece. Bathi it’s sour grapes, & we are cry babies something is cooking at PSL. Same thing happened last year why allow that and who stands to benefit. We aren’t kids it leaves a lot to be desired.
SBu_Mseleku MmusiMaimane where are you professor of conflict of interest, tell ur shadow minister of sport to intervene
SBu_Mseleku What an article, we are being taken for granted....There is no regard for a good corporate governance in the PSL. Where have you seen a conflicted person acting as a CEO for three years? Why is it difficult to appointed a qualified, competent and independent person?
WaSwele SBu_Mseleku Time is up for this yhoo
SBu_Mseleku I have said it before that why Khoza is a Psl chairman and Orlando Pirates chairman including the chairlady Manto
SBu_Mseleku But these people own our football....it doesn't work, won't work and will never work. But this is South Africa. Who are we to even complain
SBu_Mseleku Mzantsi suffers from strong man syndrome. Psl Khoza & Safa Jordan. Can't wait to see the back of these old man. They must go look after their grandchildren thixo. Holding football back, nje!!!
SBu_Mseleku Nonsense! Pirates never had special treatment
SBu_Mseleku Doctor Ivirn Khoza should not be in that position if it was Orlando Pirates who were in the same position as Sundowns he would treat the team as equal I don't think so
