Karoi demand share of points with Scottland

NORTHERN Region Division One Soccer League side Karoi United want their match against Scottland played in Karoi last month be declared to have been drawn after a disciplinary committee had caught the former offside in a hearing of the abandoned tie.

Karoi United have lodged an appeal after the disciplinary committee had found them guilty of causing the abandonment of the match, having failed to control their fans, where one allegedly pelted referee Mathew Dingo with “missiles” causing injuries on the groin and sheen.

Despite insisting that the club was innocent of all charges, they have suggested that they pay a US$1 000 fine instead of the US$2 000 that had been imposed by the disciplinary committee.
