I bet ya, this mess isn't what PSL sponsors expected

The recently concluded 2024/25 season will be the campaign that the Premier Soccer League (PSL) and its newly acquired sponsors Betway will want to forget quickly.

Betway, might just be wondering what it has gotten itself into. The sponsor's maiden season in the highest echelons of SA football was marred by administrative blunders and embarrassing legal showdowns never seen in the history of the PSL.

Several precedents were set, which will no doubt give the league bosses migraines in the future when cited.

The administration of SA diski is not for the faint-hearted and the lily-livered. Often, things are not done by the book, and corporate governance occasionally gets a tackle from behind from the powers that be.

Sometimes, this is not done deliberately, but situations arise that need a street-smart approach and a solution away from the handbook - and that is why a band of shrewd, adaptable, streetwise and sophisticated young administrators are needed to take over the running of the ship.
