The weekend of truth is here for three clubs fighting to avoid relegation from the Premier League. Staff Writer,

Motlakase Power Dynamos, Miscellaneous and TASC are facing a defining moment in a memorable photo finish at the bottom. The race is spiced up by the fact that Miscellaneous is pitted against TASC in Selebi-Phikwe as Motlakase takes on Nico United at the DH Moore in Orapa.  Miscellaneous can only survive if they beat TASC and Motlakase lose or draw against Nico. The Serowe side has 23 points, one behind TASC and Motlakase.  Both TASC and Miscellaneous were promoted at the beginning of the campaign while Motlakase are in their second season.
Yesterday, Miscellaneous' coach, Teenage Mpote, told Mmegi Sport that although the Motlakase-Nico game could have a bearing on their survival chances, they will not be worried too much about what is happening in Selebi-Phikwe.  He said that it is important they give 100 percent concentration in their game against TASC. "We will play wholeheartedly whether Motlakase win their game against Nico or not.

"Our aim is to improve in each and every game and if it happens that we survive, we would not want to see ourselves in the same situation next season," he said.  He added that though they played with youngsters when they were promoted to the Premier League, they would have competed well if it was not for the fact that they travelled every week.
