Money talks: Miscellaneous downed boots demanding outstanding salaries

Miscellaneous players revolted over unpaid bonuses yesterday ahead of a crucial Premier League match against Township Rollers in Palapye tomorrow. The Serowe side faces relegation if it fails to collect maximum points, while Rollers will be crowned champions with victory. Reports from Serowe indicate that the players refused to train, demanding their dues as the club’s crippling financial woes came to the fore.

Although he could not confirm or deny, club chairperson, Oscar Sefako said the development is not entirely surprising.

Sefako was in Gaborone yesterday when Mmegi Sport contacted him for comment. He said players had approached the management over unpaid wages. “I believe they managed to meet the management yesterday. I am in Gaborone as we speak, but leaving for Serowe,” he told Mmegi Sport yesterday.
