The Football Association of Zambia Disciplinary Committee has awarded three points to Choma Green Eagles following their abandoned Super League Week Four against Kabwe Warriors.
Kitwe referee Gladys Lengwe was on 12th April forced to abandon the match in the 63rd minute when Eagles were leading 2-0 after home fans rioted at Godfrey Chitalu Stadium in Kabwe.
The FAZ Disciplinary Committee that sat over the weekend awarded Eagles three points and a 2-0 victory.
The committee has since fined Warriors Five Thousand Kwacha over the said crowd trouble at Godfrey Chitalu Stadium in Kabwe.
And FAZ Disciplinary Committee has handed a life ban to Kasama Malalo Police footballer Enoch Moyo for assaulting a referee.
Moyo is said to have manhandled a referee thereby forcing the abandonment of the FAZ Division Two North between Kasama Malalo Police and Tazara Blue Stars on April 26, 2014.
In another verdict, Lusaka Dynamos have been awarded three points over their unfulfilled FAZ Division One South fixture against Kafue Celtics on April 27 at Khosa Stadium.
Kafue Celtics have further been charged K1, 500 for failing to fulfill this fixture.
And in a similar case of unfulfilled fixtures, Lusaka Tigers have been awarded three points with a 2-0 score line after Mazabuka United failed to fulfill a FAZ Division One South Week Six match.
This is contained in a media statement issued to Radio Icengelo Sports today by FAZ Spokesperson Nkweto Tembwe.

Too bad for my team Warriors, but the punishment IMO is very fair. Soccer fans (or is it Club supporters) need to learn that venting their anger by forcing an abandonment will not do any good to their club’s fortunes, it only puts them in a worse situation. The best they could have done was to keep singing and drumming until the last minute. That’s how Crystal Palace managed to dig out a draw against Liverpool from 0 – 3 down with some 11 minutes to go. In case you are wondering, Liverpool is that team which (in)famously ‘slipped’ and gave away the title to some obscure team bank-rolled by a certain Sheikh something…!
GBFC ninshi? number 10! something is wrong somewhere. Can someone explain the reason for the bad performance. What has demoralized you boys?
