KUCHING: Unfit Penang have raised doubts over their ability to gain an automatic berth in next year's Super League. 

Following a 0-2 defeat by Sarawak in a Premier I match at the Sarawak Stadium here on Saturday night, team manager Dr Ashaari Mohamad admitted that Penang needed to improve on their fitness level if they were to finish among the top six in the 13-team league to qualify for the eight-team Super League.
