South African football's mother body, the South African Football Association , also weighed on the debate as soon as Sutherland's ruling became known."As far as the Association is concerned, we are happy with the outcome,’’ said SAFA CEO, Advocate Tebogo Motlanthe in a statement over the weekend.
The straight-talking Motlanthe said the outcome showed that the arbiters were well-versed with the rules of the competition. He urged the PSL to accept and implement judicial decisions.SAFA's statement also advised that the costs incurred by Sekhukhune shall be borne by Polokwane City FC and Royal AM FC.
This week the action moves from the courtroom to the playing field to determine who will join Sekhukhune in the Premiership next season. Sekhukhune will take the place of Black Leopards, who were demoted after finishing rock-bottom of the Premiership last season. The Nedbank Cup runners-up Chippa United finished second last and can survive the dreaded chop by winning the play-offs. Only one of the three teams will be promoted after two rounds of round-robin matches.Richards Bay, who finished in third place on the NFD log, will host Royal AM at the Umhlathuze Sports Stadium, KwaZulu-Natal, on Tuesday in the PSL promotion/relegation play-offs pipe-opener.
On Friday, the action moves to the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium, where Chippa United will host KZN visitors Royal AM.
