PREMIER Soccer League (PSL) giants Dynamos and Highlanders have been summoned to appear before the PSL Disciplinary Committee on June 8 following violence and hooliganism that forced the abandonment of their match at Barbourfields Stadium on May 15.
The highly volatile match ended prematurely in the 92nd minute when Dynamos fans invaded the pitch in protest against Highlanders’ goal.
The fans tore nets and attempted to uproot goalposts.
Bosso fans also threw missiles onto the pitch to display their anger after a crude tackle by Bill Antonio on Andrew Tandi, who subsequently dislocated his ankle.
According to a statement released by the PSL, Dynamos are being charged for breaching Order 31 of the PSL rules and regulations.
A club is liable when its “officials, players, servants or duly authorised (express or implied) representatives assault, threaten, intimidate, coerce, interfere, mislead or insult a match official, player, official of the League, public, press or media, or any other person, before, during or after any match”.
It is also responsible when “its players, officials, servants or duly authorised (expressed or implied) representatives or supporters directly or indirectly interrupt, obstruct or disturb the normal proceedings of a game before, during or after the match”.
