Mochudi Centre Chiefs have confirmed that they have filed a protest
against Township Rollers after they used midfielder Ofentse 'Size 10'
Nato in the first leg of Mascom Top 8 semi final on Friday night.
Rollers thumped Chiefs 3-1 in an entertaining match played at the
Francistown Sports Complex.
.
"It is true we are protesting the
use of Nato. BFA CEO (Kitso) Kemoeng released a directive that there
shall be no player registered outside the transfer window. And BPL has
no right to authorise the signing of any player without a consent from
The Status Committee," said Clifford Mogomotsi on Monday morning. "This
is the similar case we had some years back when BPL authorised the
signing of David Makakaba and we went on to lose the points," Mogomotsi
added.
.
According to Article 5.2 of Mascom Top 8 rules
and regulations, Any team which uses an improperly registered player
(defaulter) shall be guilty of an offense and liable to pay an amount
between P20,000 and P50,000 and automatic disqualifaction from the tournament.
.
"People need to understand that we are not bitter about the results but
the rules have to adhered to. Gilport Lions have also filed the same
complaint following their loss against Rollers in the League," Chiefs
spokesman said.
