The Tanzania Football Federation (TFF) has said it will not postpone any of the Premier League matches because of a team`s delay caused by transport problems.
TFF Secretary-General Frederick Mwakalebela said at the weekend that the team which would not report in time because of transport delay will automatically lose the game.
`We are not ready to reschedule matches because of the delay of any team,` he claimed.
He said that TFF had already given transport money to all 14 teams competing in the league, so there was no any excuse for transport delay.
`It is embarrassing to see a team wanting its match to be rescheduled because of transport problems. Regulations demand that club report at their league centres one or two days before the match,` Mwakalebela explained.
However, Mwakalebela insisted that TFF would allow a match to be postponed for a day only if a team would give a strong reason for not showing up on the pitch and not otherwise.
Toto Africans last week requested TFF to postpone their Thursday league match against Police Moro due to transport problem while Prison and Ashanti match was also postponed for a day for the same reason.
