You have your say over the game’s most contentious issues.

Mamelodi Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane is more often than not caught offside in the PSL law for his criticisms of the referees. Mosimane hardly minces his words whenever the middleman has mistakenly cost him the match. I personally feel that the Brazilians’ coach, who has been hit hard in the pocket for bringing the PSL into disrepute, has been wrongly accused and fined. Mosimane is a hardworking disciplined serial winner who wants nothing less than a victory in every match and contest he’s in. The interviews themselves are unfair because they are conducted immediately after the game. No quarter is given for tempers to cool down and they are denied an opportunity to gather their thoughts. In the EPL, the press conference is being held over 30 minutes after the match. SAFA referees are prone to mistakes and are inconsistent regarding handball and offside rules. Maybe the Video Assistant Referee ( VAR) could be a better and a far-reaching solution to this problem.

At the moment, referees are being let off the hook without consequence management.
