He said (via <b>NewsDay<\/b>):<\/p>\n<p>We have brought the game of football into disrepute and now the same club that we dearly love is going to be fined heavily because it\u2019s very clear what the statues say. We know even before we go for a hearing that it\u2019s a serious offence.<\/p>\n<p>As the chairman of PSL and the president of CAPS United, I am not happy with the videos I am seeing of the fans going after the referees. We don\u2019t condone any acts of violence in our football.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s respect referees, they make decisions in a split second, even in Europe VAR (Video Assistant Referee) makes mistakes, someone sitting and watching on a monitor makes mistakes.<\/p>\n<p>I want to encourage the responsible authorities to deal with this as soon as possible because the statutes are there.<\/p>\n<p>In 2022, Highlanders and Dynamos were fined by the PSL Disciplinary Committee due to incidents of violence and hooliganism during their league match between the two clubs at Barbourfields Stadium in May of that year.<\/p>\n<p>Dynamos FC, who were the home team, were fined $7,500, while Highlanders FC was fined $5,000. The match was awarded to Highlanders on a 3-0 scoreline.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/zimbabwe\">Zimbabwe<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Zimbabwe.
