Satmos officials still hospitalized

SELEBI-PHIKWE: FC Satmos' manager Benny Kgomela and coach Guston Mutobo are still recuperating in hospital after a car accident three weeks ago. Kgomela has been transferred from Francistown's Nyangabgwe Hospital to Gaborone Private Hospital (GPH). Mutobo is still at Nyangabgwe.

The two officials fractured their legs after a mini-bus they were travelling in hit a cow and overturned near Serule, about 60km from Selebi-Phikwe.  Kgomela was the driver of the mini-bus which had four passengers. He told Mmegi Sport yesterday that he might be released from the hospital in about two weeks. "I am better now. They have inserted some knee and ankle supporting implants and by the end of this week, they would be teaching me how to walk," said Kgomela who sustained two fractures on the left foot. Mutobo also sustained leg fractures and has been given supporting implants, said a team official. Attempts by Mmegi Sport to get a comment from the Zambian tactician proved futile as his cellphone was off.

Satmos' owner and stand-in coach Mooketsi Mading said that the club is ready to help the duo to recover from the effects of the accident. "Luckily, Kgomela is using his medical aid scheme to foot his medical expense and we will be paying for Mutobo's medical expenses when he gets released from the hospital. They were from a team assignment and there is no way we can shy away from helping them out," said Mading.
