Following widespread speculation that Marumo Gallants will get relegated after Cape Town City won their arbitration case the had lodged at the South African Football Association (SAFA) on Monday, the Bloemfontein-based outfit merely got a slap on the wrist, with the Premier Soccer League (PSL) handing them a fine.
Gallants were found guilty on charges of fielding an improperly registered player in Monde Mphambaniso by the PSL disciplianry committee (DC), who fined Bahlabane ba Ntwa R200 000, with 50% of the fine suspended for 24 months. This means the 2025/2026 league season will start as scheduled, with Gallants’ PSL status still intact.
In a recorded audio press release, PSL prosecutor Zola Majavu further stated that the DC found Mphambaniso not guilty, while handing City the opprtunity to appeal the outcomes of the case should they feel the need to.
“The PSL DC ruled as follows: one, that Marumo Gallants be fined an amount of R200,000, half of which is immediately payable, and the other half suspended for 24 months, on condition that during the period of suspension they are not found guilty of the same offence again.
“Should they reoffend, that suspended portion would be triggered immediately, and they will be further sanctioned for that subsequent misdemeanour,” said Majavu.
Galants were also ordered to pay for the costs of the sitting.
