Miembeni boycott hurts teams in Isles League
MIEMBENI City continue to boycott Zanzibar Premier League games after this weekend missing their third game in a row.
Miembeni who were to play Kilimani City over the weekend once again failed to appear at Amaan Stadium, the venue of the game. Their failure to honour three matches consecutively means the team has made exit from the league and they will be relegated to the lower division, according to the league’s regulations.
Deeply troubled Miembeni had written to the league organisers asking for the withdrawal, but their wish was not granted. The withdrawal of Miembeni City has deeply affected the league’s standing table as benefited some of the teams and hurt many others.
One of the victims are JKU who have lost six points from 42 to 36. They are now fifth-placed in the league table. The league leaders KVZ have remained a the driver’s seat despite losing six points. They are parading 40 points instead of 46 points which the team carved prior to Miembeni City withdrawal.
Zimamoto who were fifth prior to Miembeni City withdrawal have benefited much. They are now placed second with 39 points. Third are Mafunzo with 37 points same as Polisi, but superior goal average favours the former. Both teams had 41 points prior to the changes.
Jang’ombe Boys who have reaped 33 points are seventh while KMKM are placed eighth with 30 points. Black Sailor are next with 27 points the same as Chuoni, but goal average separates them.
