The PSL should regard the policies of other big leagues as the norm for progress, I mean, Mr Editor, if VAR technology is applicable and working well in La Liga and in Italian Serie A, why don’t we order the system to improve the standard of refereeing? Mduduzi Mhlongo

Give Banyana Banyana a Bell’s for winning the Team of the Year award in the Sports Awards. What an exciting year for the coach and players. Their hard work is paying off. Papi

What a dramatic game between Bucs and Downs. What happened off the pitch prior to and during the game must be condemned. Kimotuse

Desiree Ellis has named a strong competitiv­e Banyana Banyana squad for the upcoming Women’s African Cup of Nations. We must give the team all our support and encourage them to perform to their highest ability. I’m hopeful that our girls will fly our flag high in Ghana. Lebethu Why was Daniel Bennett allowed to officiate such a massive match after failing to dismiss Itumeleng Khune for handling a ball outside his area? EM

It’s disappoint­ing that off-the-pitch events grab the headlines, rather than the game itself, which was highly entertaini­ng and tactical. The PSL must stamp out this thuggery and must not let cases drag for a long time like the Thidiela one. Lulama

I see a bright future in Rhulani Mokwena’s coaching career, but lately I have a problem with his conduct. His conduct at Pirates may end up confusing the head coach. Rhulani seems to be wanting the head coach’s job. Godfrey

Please let us blame Solinas alone – the technical staff must never allow a formation of 5-4-1. Chiefs, I have been in love with you for 45 years, but against Chippa you were like primary school boys. Please include Ntshangase and forget about Cardoso. LTM

Benni McCarthy as a player was always in the penalty box. He’s still the national side’s all-time leading scorer with 31 strikes, the only South African to win the Uefa Champions League, and now (Ed: one of) the most decorated/qualified coaches in Mzansi. Congrats coach McCarthy for obtaining your Uefa Pro Licence and thanks for shining a light – you’re a true SA champion! Lucky Mabhuma

I don’t think Stuart Baxter was right to recall Serero. The boy ditched us when we needed him the most and he needs to be reminded he isn’t bigger than the game. Mokoka
