Sundowns showing Pitso a middle finger

-
By Malose Wa Ga Lamola
Pitso Mosimane is boasting a decorated CV in the domestic league therefore, it is disheartening to learn of the arrival of a technical director at Mamelodi Sundowns.

Mosimane has proven beyond any reasonable doubt- that he is capable of doing his job- under no supervision. All the coaches that came after Trott Moloto and before Pitso have failed so dismally at Chloorkop. Appointing a technical director to boss Pitso is a sign of disperect. In exception of Ted Dumitru Europeans have come and gone at Sundowns without winning any title. The reigning coach of the season has accumulated more trophies than all his predecessors.

Sundowns is showing a middle finger to Pitso. All the reported factions at Chloorkop are bad for the club. Pitso can be labelled arrogant and all but his work ethic is unquestionable. Patrice Motsepe wanted to conquer Africa and Pitso has ticked that box. Why are we still doubting our own?

Without sounding xenophic but Europeans are overrated in South Africa. They are not any better to our very own coaches. Technical Directors are given more power than coaches and the presence of one at Chloorkop will tame Pitso's powers.

Baxter leads Bafana to the land of Pharaoh

By Malose Wa Ga Lamola After a performance that goes beyond industrious- Bafana Bafana- has qualified for the Afcon finals set to be staged in Egypt this winter. Congratulations on your commendable victory against Libya. Percy Tau has led the team from the front. Tau's brace was adequate for Stuart Baxter's men to claim a 2-1 victory over a stubborn Libyan side at Tunis. The Royale Union Saint Gilloise star player continues to be in a fine form- as he emerged through the pack to seal the deal for Bafana. Baxter has qualified for two Afcon finals in his two stints with Bafana. The Brit first qualified for the 2006 Afcon finals coincidentally held in Egypt. Baxter has now led Bafana to yet another Afcon finals. South Africa has celebrated the class of 1996 for too long- the current generation has to emulate their big brothets and conquer Africa again. With the type of football Bafana is ditching out- winning the Afcon won't be too much to ask for. Bafana is capable

Haraba: It Is Not Only About The Money

By Malose Wa Ga Lamola Hollywoodbets Super League has set up a theatre for women's football in South Africa. An action galore series, more of a horror film than a comedy flick. Though, football is less fictional than most of Hollywood films, but it offers the same dramatic content if not more. Heroes and villains, the building blocks of classic tales. Directing a television production bears some similarities to football management. Trying to coax the best out of role players. Coaches are more concerned with numbers on the log standings, so are directors' obsession with viewership.  A one team dominated league is often referred to as a farmer's league. The dominance of Mamelodi Sundowns Ladies in the Hollywoodbets Super League puts the women's league in category one of farmers' leagues. Royal AM Ladies mentor, Thato Haraba, argues the notion that Hollywoodbets Super League is a farmers league and is of a view that assumptions lack as much in t

By Malose Wa Ga Lamola Banyana Banyana celebrates Africa Women's Cup Of Nations victory after beating Morocco 2-1 in the final. Photo cred: Backpagepix Milpark Stadium remains a sacred space for South African women in football. Like an angel offering redemption to a sinner, in 1992, FIFA readmitted South Africa back into the international football fold. A year later Banyana Banyana was born. The real world finally intruded into South African women's football in the winter of 1993. A new era was opening. Banyana took on neighbours eSwatini, the then Swaziland. The main architects of South African women's football history. Former Banyana Banyana star midfielder, Anna Monate, took ShakingInk down memory lane as she reminisces on the historic day when she took to the field donning national team colours. Though, the stakes were real, and high. Playing football was an art they were learning to master. Monate laid bare the incidents of the 30th of May 1993. “For my
