Tomorrow&#8217;s meeting between all stakeholders of the Jinja Declaration &#8211; which brought about the formation of an independent body to manage the competition &#8211; was called by Fufa CEO Edgar Watson on Saturday. This came after Fufa suspended their &#8220;delegated authority to the USL to run the league&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Citing the Memorandum and Articles of Association that brought them into being, USL dismissed Fufa&#8217;s ban, instead calling their own meeting for all clubs &#8211; the principle shareholders. And from that meeting, shunned by Bunnamwaya, Utoda and Hoima, in Kampala on Monday, USL are determined to defend their stand.<\/p>\n<p>A trusted source, who attended the meeting but does not want to be named for fear of reprisal, said USL will not buckle to Fufa&#8217;s demands. &#8220;The stand so far is we shall defend our position,&#8221; said the source. Reports had suggested a simmering mistrust by some clubs about how the league was being managed. League manager Paul Kabaikaramu said they are united but remained guarded on the meeting details. &#8220;All clubs agreed we attend the meeting with Fufa,&#8221; he said, &#8220;Apart from that, there was nothing much.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<fieldset>\n<legend align=\"center\"><strong>More News on allAfrica.com<\/strong><\/legend>\n<\/fieldset>\n<p>AllAfrica &#8211; All the Time<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>View the original here:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/allafrica.com\/stories\/201106290507.html\" title=\"Uganda: USL Will Not Relent in Promotion Feud\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Uganda: USL Will Not Relent in Promotion Feud<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Andrew Mwanguhya 29 June 2011 Kampala \u2014 Eleven of the 14 Super League clubs on Monday night unanimously resolved to approach Fufa in one front.
