. Out of 12 Premier League sides that were in action over the weekend, six of them were dumped out of the knockout competition.
From the five, two are Gaborone giants, Township Rollers and Gaborone United (GU) who were initially seen as favourites for the competition. Rollers once again had an unpleasant trip to Orapa where they lost 2-1 to their hoodoo side, the Ostriches. In a space of few weeks, Rollers now lost twice against Orapa United following the arrival of Mogomotsi Mpote in Orapa. Interestingly, Mpote joined Orapa United following his release from Rollers. Despite drawing first blood through Mogakolodi Ngele on Saturday, Orapa United came back to send the Gaborone giants out of the competition.
