[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 1035096, member: 40658"] AFAIK SARU will have to pay a participation fee. But SARU has taken the initiative to organise more games for the local teams, and they will play each other 3/4 times for the period that they would have been involved in the RB cup. The question is however if this participation fee will be paid by SARU, or will there be some sort of arrangement between broadcasters and the organisers in getting the funds. As Supersport is SARU's broadcasting partner and one of their main funding contributors, with SKY being their broadcasting partner. I just think it would be extremely harsh on SARU, who went to extreme lengths to organise tournaments for SA, and make deals with other Unions/organisers, to now fit the bill, for something that SARU isn't responsible for, or is being prevented from participating. The fault isn't with SARU, so why must they be held accountable for payment? [/QUOTE]
