Spitfire sold for 1.7 million pounds
A former SA Air Force Spitfire fighter plane, discovered in a Cape Town scrapyard in the 1970s, was sold in London for 1.7 million pounds on Monday.
The Spitfires intend to appeal the $400,000 fine and other punishments, maintaining that they did not violate the league's player benefit and recruitment rules and policies, as they are being accused of doing so.
