“But on a principle basis‚ and the legal advice that we got‚ we respect the decision of the arbitrator but we are taking it on review.”

The legal battle stemmed from a resolution taken at a Safa extraordinary congress in Mpumalanga in March 2015 that Sasfa was no longer an associate member‚ and to take over the running of schools’ football.

“Ja‚ no‚ we have taken a decision already. We will be taking this matter on a judicial review‚” Sasfa president Mandla “Shoes” Mazibuko told SowetanLIVE on Tuesday‚ just hours after Safa officials had pronounced their confidence that the matter was finally closed. Mazibuko said Sasfa had been self-sufficiently running schools football since their expulsion‚ and would continue to do so while the court was going to review.

Asked if he had any idea how long a judicial review process might take‚ Mazibuko said: “We believe that a judicial review would not take longer than the next six months. But it’s not in our hands. “It is very strange how the [arbitration] award is coming about. However we respect it‚ and we are taking it on a review.
