The committee found Urey and Paynesville FC player Eugene Swen guilty of manipulating two 2024/25 league fixtures: Paynesville FC vs. Freeport FC and Shaita FC vs. Paynesville FC. The LFA alleged that Urey violated the FIFA Disciplinary Code during a controversial match that saw Shaita FC secure a 7–0 victory over Paynesville FC. The Jubilee FC Precedent: CAS Reverses RelegationJoining Urey in the international complaint is Jubilee FC, which recently won a major legal battle against the LFA at the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Lausanne, Switzerland. In October 2025, CAS Sole Arbitrator Hervé Le Lay overturned the LFA’s decision to relegate Jubilee FC to the Third Division. In response to the complaint by Jubilee and Benita Whitney, Urey LFA media Manager Anthony Kokoi said they have not received any communication of such.
