Premier Soccer League vs Kaizer Chiefs Soap Opera Leaves Fans Irritated, Demanding a Speedy Resolution

• There appears to be no end in sight in the saga of the Premier Soccer League disciplining Kaizer Chiefs for missing fixtures
• The club suffered a Covid-19 outbreak in December, forcing them to not pitch up for matches against Golden Arrows and Cape Town City
• After much toing and froing with the league charging the Amakhosi for not honouring the fixtures, fans are tired and want a speedy resolution

The drawn out saga of the Premier Soccer League disciplining Kaizer Chiefs has taken on soap operatic proportions, and football observers are tired of it.

Chiefs were charged by the league for failing to honour two fixtures against Golden Arrows and Cape Town City in December. The team cited a Covid-19 outbreak at the club for the reason to not pitch up, requesting that five of its matches be postponed.

According to Soccer Laduma, the request was denied, leading to a fixture logjam. PSL prosecutor Zola Majavu then charged Chiefs for missing the two matches on 12 January, as reported by KickOff.
