Johannesburg – Big decisions are set to be taken with regards to the status of this season’s PSL campaign in Friday’s Board of Governors (BoG) meeting.
The PSL Executive Committee will meet with the members of the BoG to find a way forward concerning the resumption of the Absa Premiership and Nedbank Cup. Plans to return were thrown into disarray this past month after the PSL and Safa failed to reach consensus on the matter.
The PSL said it is ready to restart the league with matches beginning last week Friday but Safa responded with a counter-proposal to reboot the action in the first week of next month.
Acting PSL chief executive Mato Madlala said that they will meet tomorrow with their members to discuss the way forward
“We haven’t made any decision with regards to when we will return to action. For now, we haven’t taken any decision,” insisted Madlala.
Unconfirmed reports at the weekend said a number of clubs were prepared to allow the season to be declared null and void, citing costs as a major reason they could no longer allow for postponements since the monthly grants will come to an end sooner rather than later.
Madlala did not go into the details of the direction of the meeting, but revealed hthat the monthly grants would also be discussed.
“The BoG will decide what they want to do. With regard to the monthly grants, we will also discuss that on Friday,” Madlala confirmed
