Dembare and How Mine’s plea is fully supported by other teams in the Premiership.

Kennedy Ndebele the PSL boss said as the PSL Assembly they will soon meet before the start of the league where the issue is likely to be discussed again.

“I am sure the clubs will make that appeal. We are worried because this will further burden already struggling clubs.”

Ndebele said they had been looking at lobbying Zifa to assist them make appeals to various authorities for the reduction of levies that include the police, the Sport and recreation commission and local councils.
