Royal AM To Await Their Fate As Trophy Handover Paused! Andile Mpisane and Shauwn Mkhize saw their side draw 1-1 and win the GladAfrica Championship.
Royal AM drew 1-1 with Cape Town All Stars in the GladAfrica Championship yesterday. A result which confirms that they won the NFD title.
However, boardroom drama means that they have not received the trophy as yet.
Last week Sekhukhune United won a dispute which gave them a 3-0 victory over Polokwane City. This saw them go to the top of the table.
However, Shauwn Mkhize threatened to sue the PSL after this ordeal. Hence, the matter is still being discussed and the champions of the NFD are yet to be confirmed.
“The Premier Soccer League has been threatened and served with Court papers in relation to an arbitration award handed down impacting the GladAfrica Championship table.” The PSL said in a statement.
“The matter must clearly be ventilated one way or the other and resolved. The League responsibility is to properly consider the matter and take advice so as to ensure that all disputes and differences are finalized urgently and without delay.
“While the matter remains in dispute, it is advisable to delay the GladAfrica Championship trophy handover for a short period to permit the League to consider the matter. The matches will continue and the results will be arrived at, and the issues resolved.
“The League undertakes to resolve whatever issues there are as expeditiously as possible.”
Should Royal AM be crowned champions, Sekhukhune United will go to the play-offs, alongside Richards Bay FC. Royal AM To Await Their Fate As Trophy Handover Paused!
