It’s believed Nettey was not eligible to play the match because he received three yellow cards before the 1-1 draw against Sharks.

If found guilty the Phobians will be docked 6 points and will, therefore, drop to 15th position on the league log with 15 points.

"I haven’t heard that[points deduction] formerly Emmanuel Nettey is playing well so people will try and say all sort of things and do all sort of things.
