On Wednesday, the Premier Soccer League (PSL) announced the suspension of all matches involving Royal AM until the club presents its case to the league this Friday.
On 9 January 2025, Royal AM FC informed the League that it could not fulfil its commitments regarding its match against Chippa United FC on 11 January 2025 due to difficulties arising from the appointment of a Curator.
The Executive Committee (ExCo) subsequently convened three separate meetings to seek assurances that the club, under curatorship, would be able to fulfil its fixture commitments in a compliant manner.
On 17 January 2025, the PSL’s ExCo was informed that a joint letter of comfort (from club management and the Curator) would be provided, confirming that the issues preventing the club from fulfilling its commitments had been resolved.
However, according to the PSL, no such letter of comfort has been forthcoming. Consequently, the ExCo has been left with no alternative but to cancel PSL Fixture 106: Royal AM vs. Orlando Pirates at the Harry Gwala Stadium on Wednesday and to suspend all other Royal AM fixtures (Betway Premiership and Nedbank Cup) until further notice.
The Executive Committee is scheduled to meet again on Friday, 24 January 2025, at 11:00 to allow Royal AM to make representations regarding this matter.
