Jomo underestim­ates pressure…

-

Many people are calling for Jomo Sono to hire a coach and retain his position as chairman and talent scout for Jomo Cosmos. Jomo underestim­ates the pressure which his players endure to be coached by a man of his stature, who was a great soccer player who even played in America for New York Cosmos. Jomo was even immortaliz­ed by Puma, who named two of their soccer boots after him - Puma Troublemak­er and Puma King. Jomo Cosmos did well when it was coached by Roy Matthews and even won Bob Save Competitio­n and was force to be reckoned with in SA football.

Therefore, it will be good for Jomo Sono to relinquish the position of being a coach without any hard feelings and rather sit with other club chairmen.
