Athletics, a breath of fresh air

Few fans bothered to watch the play-off game between Township Rollers and Mochudi Centre Chiefs in Francistown on Saturday and the thousands who stayed away will feel justified after the clash was cancelled. The match did not even reach the half-way mark before it was called off, after Chiefs, fielding only seven players, suffered an injury blow.

This meant the tie could not continue and ensured that the unending football circus rumbles on unabated.
