READER LETTER | The Charity Cup featuring four popularly voted teams used to be the season opener but was replaced by a competition featuring Chiefs and Orlando Pirates. This illustrates the abuse of dominance by Chiefs and Pirates.

Lately, Swallows' proposed sponsorship by Telkom was blocked by the PSL clearly because Swallows was going to compete with Chiefs and Pirates on a level playing field.

No sponsor should dictate to the PSL about the entry of other sponsors. We have a free enterprise system in our country. Monopolistic practices in any form are anticompetitive and forbidden by law. It's a pity Swallows did not take the PSL to the Competitions Commission. The Telkom sponsorship to Swallows was going to help alleviate unemployment and poverty in the black community. Thanks to a biased and selfish PSL executive, the black community remains poor.

One cannot wait for a new era in the PSL, where there is vision, fairness and compassion to address unemployment and poverty on the black community and not only cater for two teams whose fortunes on the playing field have declined precipitously.
