Kaizer Chiefs have been fined a payable amount of R150 000 by the Premier Soccer League (PSL) disciplinary committee for spectator misbehaviour during their recent 2-1 loss to Mamelodi Sundowns.
The fans were not pleased with some of the calls by referee Sikhumbuzo Gasa and his assistants and threw missiles on the pitch during the Betway Premiership match at FNB Stadium on September 28.
League prosecutor Zola Majavu said Chiefs appeared before the PSL DC on Thursday morning and pleaded guilty to the charges.
“They pleaded guilty as charged and were fined a monetary of R100 000 of which R50 000 is suspended on condition that they are not found guilty of a similar offence in a period of the suspension, which is until the end of the season,” Majavu said.
“Last season, they still had an outstanding and suspended fine of another R100 000 from a similar incident.
“Effectively, it means now that they were convicted for this new offence, they will pay an additional R100 000 which was suspended.
“In total, Kaizer Chiefs will pay effectively R150 000 plus the cost of the sitting.”
