Herentals Football Club owner Innocent Benza is convinced a third force is working tirelessly to ensure the club is pushed out of the Premier Soccer League.
Herentals were recently expelled from the PSL for the second time after having survived by the first expulsion by the skin of their teeth.
“Since the end of last season, we have been called cheats, not once but twice, for allegedly fixing our matches against Black Rhinos and Bulawayo Chiefs … I do not wish to point any fingers or accuse anyone but I do believe that there is a third force, so to speak, behind these allegations. And what hurts me the most is why football has chosen to ignore my obvious love for the game and fixate instead on these false allegations,” he wrote in a statement.
