Premier Soccer League DC have fined Kaizer Chiefs after they pleaded guilty to the crowd misbehavior in their recent loss against TS Galaxy.
Amakhosi fans throw all sorts of objects in direction of head coach Molefi Ntseki as he walked towards the tunnel after Chiefs were defeated 1-0 by Galaxy at Mbombela Stadium.
“I can confirm that earlier this morning Kaizer Chiefs Football Club appeared before the PSL DC to answer two charges of misconduct relating to the missile throwing incident otherwise known as spectator misbehavior in their fixture against TS Galaxy,” Majavu said in a statement released by PSL on Tuesday.
“They pleaded guilty as charged, and they were subsequently convicted. After listening to the deliberations on sanction, the PSL DC ruled as follows:
“Kaizer Chiefs was fined a monetary amount of R100,000 of which R30,000 is suspended for a period of 24 months on condition that during the period of suspension, they are not found guilty of the same offence.
“Effectively, they were directed to pay R70,000 together with the cost of the seating, which would be administratively completed by the league and added on to the R70,000 Fine.
“They were further directed to send a written apology to the league and the sponsors and also to carry that apology on their website.
“The DC also made several recommendations, which would be contained in a written ruling. Those will be shared first with Kaizer Chiefs, and it will be up to Kaizer Chiefs to elect whether to implement them or not. They will also have a choice to publicize those recommendations.”
