Reading the sad story of legend Isaac Shai about how some clown had the audacity to tell him that umsebenzi sewuphelile, I felt like crying. This is typical of darkies. I bet the person who delivered the news has made no positive contribution to the club. He’s just an employee, but because of some lousy position and status, he thinks he’s made it. He has never played pro football in his life. That is why I have always requested our favourite publication Soccer Laduma to please introduce a space where you give us a breakdown of all management teams and employees of every club in the PSL so that such clowns should be known and exposed.

‘BEST LEAGUE IN THE WORLD’ RETURNS!
The PSL is back! The Big Three all drew. My team continued where they left off by keeping a clean sheet. The big surprise was Spurs beating AmaZulu FC. Congrats to them. On another note, well done to Arsenal for scoring five of the best against Burnley. Nyambeni Samson Khuphani, Tshiawelo Ext 5
Good three points for Spurs against AmaZulu FC in their efforts to avoid the dreaded axe, but they will need a consecutive run of victories to achieve that. I just hope “Mazinyo” does not scram towards end of season when he see the axe looming. It’s not Bartlett’s fault Spurs find themselves where they are. It won’t be Middendorp’s fault either. Rather, it’s this play-off thing that’s depriving participants from signing quality players as it’s difficult to plan not knowing whether you’ll be campaigning in the topflight or second tier. On another note, can Rhulani tone down a little bit with his “acting” on the bench. Even Pitso was not this dramatic. Mompati Panyaza Ndlovu, Lekubu village, Zeerust
The defensive approach taken by Rhulani Mokwena against Pirates demonstrated how he is not confident of his players who failed to make it to Afcon. What did talented attacking players such as Maboe and Maema do to deserve such a high level of disrespect when it comes to team selection? Rhulani is a good coach but definitely lacks manmanagement skills. Thabo Mabetoa, Pretoria
PSL action made its long-awaited return last weekend and the performances we witnessed were worse than poor. I had high hopes for the clash between Downs and Bucs, but what a lukewarm affair! Penning this missive, I’ve just seen a quote by Broos saying the PSL level needs to increase, citing tactical discipline as the focal point. Spot on! Sometimes I ask myself if PSL players were watching the Afcon or just lazing around at the chesa nyama enjoying the immortal waters and turning the wheels of their expensive rides. Seems we’re in for a long second round of the season. Hence, Sundowns will win this league easily as no team appears capable to stand up to them. The more I plead the fifth amendment about my beloved Amakhosi, the better. Marvin Matseke-Mabula, Burgersfort Leboeng Rutseng
Having watched the game against Royal AM, I can only conclude that Chiefs management does not want to contribute in building the standard of football in South Africa. Let me say this, Kaizer Chiefs is dead and buried! Mzukisi Sajini, Jo’burg
Quick One-Two’s
I kindly request for SAFA to stop instigating hatred towards Foster. To hear that they still want to have a meeting with him is disturbing. Foster’s situation was explained enough, and for him to play for Burnley during the Afcon was his way to recovery because he was close to his doctors. His coach even promised to show his medical records to anyone who needs them. But I think that will be an invasion of privacy, and Kompany is aware of it. SAFA, please stop this before this boy is completely destroyed by these comments which will put him under unnecessary pressure. Instead of thanking Burnley for taking good care of our player, we are looking for something that’s not there. How would the player rehabilitate far away from his doctors? To me, it seems as if we’d prefer a trophy over Foster’s wellbeing. Andile Faku, Mandalay, Cape Town
This club v country issue ain’t new, and there seems no end in sight. Foster chose to remain at Burnley and asked not to be included in the Afcon squad,
