Mpote waits as Rollers hunt new coach

Popa unexpectedly parted ways with British tactician Mark Harrison who joined South African side Baroka FC in January. Popa then appointed long-term assistant coach, Mogomotsi ‘Teenage’ Mpote to lead the team for the remainder of the season.

Mpote ‘dropped’ his CV at Rollers on Saturday when he led the team to their 14th league triumph with a game to spare after beating Black Forest 2-0. Mpote became the first local coach to win the league in more than ten years since Isaiah Mogwadi in 2006 with Police XI.
