Clubs and players suffer because of PSL and Safa rift

We can conclude that the reason the Absa Premier League and Glad Africa Championship haven’t returned to action is simply that the shot callers at Safa and PSL can’t put their differences aside and work together to see the return of the beautiful game they claim to love so much.

Their inability to join hands and find a solution given you a glimpse of how the growth or development of South African football has been stifled by football administrators trying to flex their muscles and show everyone who is in charge.

It is said that when two elephants fight the grass suffers and in this case the football clubs and everyone connected to them and football. What’s more annoying than a bunch on grown men who can work together to do their jobs is them shifting the blame on why the league can’t restart blaming clubs and referees instead of addressing the elephant in the room, their egos and grudges from pass fights that have nothing to do with the current situation facing South African football.

This brings up the question of whether we have the right people in charge of football in the country and the overall dark cloud that hangs over leadership in South Africa.
