According to a statement released by the NBL, the Spirit home game on Saturday night will go ahead as scheduled and it appears the team will be able to continue for the remainder of the season, albeit with a cut in salary for players and staff.
The players are still prepared to take the court despite these developments.
The default proceedings set out by the league still remain in force.
Once again, bad management leaves a sporting club in peril through no fault of their own.
It’d be nice now to see the Spirit fire, as they are capable of taking the game up to a number of teams sitting higher on the ladder.
Currently in seventh spot, they face a tough game Saturday night against the Dragons.
But as we’ve seen this season anything can, and has happened and I wouldn’t be surprised if the boys came out on the back of this upheaval and took the game from their fancied opponents.
It’d also be nice to see a bit of home town support for this struggling club given the fact that the players are so dedicated to the cause.
But I guess that remains to be seen.
