MRFA sticks to their resolution

MBABANE – Initiators of the 16-team proposal Manzini Regional Football Association (MRFA) are not ready to withdraw the resolution taken by the FA General Assembly in June.

MRFA Chairman Phumuza Ntshangase yesterday said they were not moving an inch ahead of tonight’s Special General Assembly over the resolution.
“For us it’s no longer a proposal but a resolution which we expect to be implemented as it was recognised by the highest decision-making body in our football,” he said, when asked what their reaction was to the Special General Assembly sanctioned by the FA.
He said they were not expecting anything else other than implementation of the resolution to have elite and first division league teams increased from 12 to 16.

“What can happen if there’s a problem with implementation is for us to be given the platform to assist as to how we think this can be done. When we get that platform then we’ll help in implementing the resolution,” Ntshangase explained.

Rumours

Asked about the rumours that the resolution could be set aside this afternoon, he said it could happen but only because this was Swaziland.
“It would come as a shock to us if the resolution, made by the FA General Assembly, would be set aside but we can’t rule it out and we’d almost be powerless as the resolution was with the FA now,” he said.

Meanwhile, PLS CEO Nqobile Magagula could not be reached for comment as her cellphone rang unanswered. The last attempt was made at 6.30pm.
However, it is no secret that the PLS is opposed to this resolution and will push for it to be thrown out today.
The organisation argued that the proposal was unconstitutionally presented during the FA AGM about two months ago, and they were not going to comply with an illegitimate decision.
