text: Idemesha eyenzeke kwezoshishino nasentlalweni yoluntu ayithetheki. Kube njalo nasebholeni ekhatywayo. Abaphathi bamaqela kuza kunyanzeleka bangene nzulu ezipokothweni xa bebhatala imivuzo yabadlali kule nyanga ngoba iPSL ngeke iyikhuphe imali yesibonelelo yesiqhelo emva kokuqengqeleka kweenyanga ezintathu ingadlalwa iibhola ngenxa yekhorona. Kodwa eyona nto ebembi kakhulu kukuba amaqela kuye kwanyanzeleka abakhulule abadlali abaphelelwe zizivumelwano ekupheleni kwenyanga yeSilimela bengayigqibanga isizini. Nayo iChippa iphakathi kwamaqela athe achatshazelelwa kakubi kukumiswa kwesizini ngoba iye yanyanzeleka okokuba imkhulule uRhulani Mokwena – owafika Ekwindla ngemboleko, engena endaweni kaNorman Mapeza. “Siye sanyanzeleka simkhulule umqeqeshi ngoba besingaqinisekanga ngesibhengezo ebesiza kwenziwa ngumphathiswa ngemidlalo,” litshilo kumajelo eendaba igosa eliphezulu lizama ukucacisa ukuhamba kukaMokwena. Akukacaci kakuhle eyona nto ebangele iChippa imyeke uMokwena ingaphelanga isizini ngoba akanayo indawo nakwi-Orlando Pirates eyayibolekise ngaye ekuqaleni kwalo nyaka.   
  Njengesiqhelo, iChippa United iphinde yanika uMbuyiselo Sambu iintambo njengebambela kude kubekho umqeqeshi omtsha. Kokwesithathu kule sizini ebambela uSambu. Emva kokuhamba kukaClinton Larsen nasemva kokuhamba kukaMapeza – kwaye kwakhwetywa yena. USambu, obelisekela-maqeqeshi ixesha elide, waye wathotyiselwa wayokuqeqesha iChippa United edlala kwiMultiChoice Diski Challenge. Ethetha neli phephandaba ekuqaleni kwalo nyaka, uSambu wathi akumkhathazi ukunyuka esehla ngoba ziseninzi izinto azifundayo. Ujongene nomsebenzi onzima kakhulu ngoba iChippa United kufuneka ilwele ukusinda ezembeni emidlalweni emithandathu eshiyekileyo. Kungoku nje iChippa ihleli kwindawo yeshumi elinesibini. Iqokelele amashumi amabini anesithandathu amanqaku emidlalweni engamashumi amabini anane. Kulindeleke iPSL ikhethe amaphondo amaqela aza kwenza iinkampu kuzo agqibezele nemidlalo yawo kuwo. Amaphondo ekucingeleka okokuba angakhethwa lelaKwaZulu-Natal, iGauteng, iMpumalanga okanye eMntla Ntshona. Kodwa konke oko kwakuthi kwenzeka phantsi kwemiqathango epasiswe ngabezempilo norhulumente.
