Cash problems: Rollers players received their May salaries late PIC: PHATSIMO KAPENG

Township Rollers’ staff, including players, had to wait until yesterday (Thursday) to receive their May salaries. The staff at Rollers were forced into an almost two-week long wait to receive their dues as former investor and club president, Jagdish Shah had travelled abroad.
