Kaizer Chiefs have urged their supporters to exercise the utmost discipline and respect when they take on Mamelodi Sundowns in the highly anticipated Betway Premiership match this Saturday.
This request comes in the wake of the club recently pleading guilty to charges regarding unruly fan behaviour during the Soweto Derby. In light of this, Chiefs are determined to avoid further incidents and ensure a positive and respectful atmosphere at the stadium.
They have made it clear that any form of misconduct from supporters will not be tolerated, with the club emphasizing the importance of creating a safe and enjoyable environment for all fans.
They were fined R100 000 with R50 000 suspended, but paid a total of R150 000 as a previously suspended charge for fan misbehaviour from the Carling Knockout quarter-final with Sundowns in November kicked in.
Ahead of the weekend’s game, Chiefs released a statement calling on fans to represent the club in the best way possible.
The club wrote: “Kaizer Chiefs strongly condemns any form of spectator misconduct. Such behaviour not only tarnishes the integrity of the game but also carries significant financial consequences for the Club.
“Sanctions of this nature divert critical resources away from essential investments, including player development, facility improvements, and the livelihoods of our staff.
“We call on all Amakhosi supporters to uphold the values of Love & Peace, respect, and discipline—both on and off the field. The Club remains committed to ongoing education and engagement initiatives to ensure a safe and enjoyable stadium experience for all.
“We deeply appreciate the unwavering support of the Amakhosi faithful and trust that, together, we will uphold the highest standards of conduct in all future matches.”
