IT WAS with a great concern when the arguably most richest team in South Africa was fined a lot of money which to them is simply may be nothing to pay. Mamelodi Sundowns was fined R100 000.00 for failing to attend the press conference after being buttered out during the penalty shootouts by Kaizer Chiefs in the inauguration of MTN 8 Wafa Wafa competition.
There's an odious saying that 'a leader should lead by example' but on the night it was not like that as the Zimbabwean international Ezrom Nyandoro failed to show the loyal supporters of the team that he is capable of facing Chiefs finest young Itumeleng Khune. In fact, Nayandoro is the captain of this illustrious Downs team.
As the newly signed player in the Amakhosi camp Reneilwe Letsholonyane slashed the back of the net by sending Brian Baloyi to the wrong side, The team just started not to think even about the press conference that the sponsor of the competition have organised after losing on the penalties.
It was bit amazing to see Marks Maponyane keeps on asking Baloyi about his views of the game even though it seems like he wasn't prepared to comment on the game. By doing that it clearly showed that the entire team wasn't prepared for any press conference.
Thanks for Patrice Motsepe's money that he keeps on investing and even paying for the team when the trouble comes. What the team would have done if Motsepe wasn't the owner of the team?
Sundowns should start respecting the rules of the game and organiser, because they are obliged to follow the mandate of the league and it's associates.
Let hope they are no longer going to repeat waht they've done.
Heita, Holla!!!
