Tinkler’s bringing back the feel-good factor

Players at Maritzburg United are said to be happy under Eric Tinkler (right) and have vowed to work extra hard to help him guide the team out of trouble. The team secured only their second win of the season when they beat Polokwane City 3-1 on Friday and the mood is good. “The players are happy, Tinkler spoke to them and showed them respect. He didn’t blame them for where the team are and told them he understood that such things happen but they have to prove that they are not one-season wonders. That is why you saw the likes of (Siphesihle) Ndlovu buzzing on Friday and the mood generally is sky high,” said a source.
