Finest athleteAmos 'Shoes' Godirwang put on a stellar performance in the middle for Rollers. The midfield maestro sent his Chiefs' opponents flying in the wrong direction the whole afternoon as he stamped his authority. Godirwang's masterful performance ensured Rollers beat their old enemy 3-1 in extra time.

Week's disappointmentMatch fixing. There are allegations that some clubs are out to influence the outcome of games through bribes. This is bad for football if ever it is true. We know that there are clubs that will try by all means to buy their Premier League status. For all sober club owners, this practice should be discouraged at all costs. We know these are mere allegations, which have not been proven, but as the adage goes, there is no smoke without fire.

Talking pointRollers' total dominance of the 2009/2010 season has set people talking. The Blues will now be hard -pressed to do well in the CAF Champions League next season after Gaborone United (GU) performed commendably this season. It will be crucial for Rollers to keep their squad intact, although the loss of top player, Terrence Mandaza to a South African club seems inevitable. The league and Coca-Cola Cup wins should foster unity and not foment discontent, as was the case at GU last season.
