SA entrepreneur eyes Chiefs

Dicks, through his company FC Cape Town, has since submitted a proposal to the club’s management, which is still being scrutinised. Club spokesperson, Jabu Mookodi confirmed yesterday that they are reviewing the proposal and attending to a few loose ends. “We are just making sure that the contract is more favourable to the club. Mr Dicks carries a lot of experience in marketing and advertising and his contract is centred around being more of a consultant. His job, once the contract is approved, will entail looking for sponsorships for and on behalf of Chiefs.

That is where his strength lies,” Mookodi said yesterday. The Kgatleng giants have been pushing for turning the club into a commercial entity as they look to bounce back to their glorious days. Mookodi said the club management has met several times and they are at a stage where they only left with tying loose ends and then take off. He said in principle, what Dicks offers the Kgatleng giants is what the club has been looking for. “It is just a matter of time before everything can be broken down, fine tuned, agreed upon and then launched,” he said.
