PETALING JAYA: Some teams in the M-League have called for the cancellation of the Malaysian League this year but it could only be a ploy to escape paying salaries and honouring their financial commitments.

So says Kuala Lumpur’s talismanic captain Mohd Shukor Adan. He said it does not make sense to cancel the league, which will resume in three weeks.
