KickOff.com has been reliably informed that Robert Sithole has been appointed the referee for the MTN8 Final.
Bucs take on perennial rivals Amakhosi on Saturday night at the FNB stadium and Sithole will be in charge of the clash.
He will be assisted by Zakhele Siwela and Leon Mngqibisa, while Zolile Mthetho will be the fourth official.
In recent seasons, Sithole has refereed a Final specifically the 2009/10 Final between Kaizer Chiefs and Ajax Cape Town on 10 April 2010. Amakhosi ran out 2-1 winners in Durban.
Efforts to verify the appointments for the match were in vain as the PSL’s PR and Press Manager Altaaf Kazi couldn’t be reached for comment.

He must make sure that the midget Jali doesn't break our players legs like last time.

Heita. I don't think this report in any way suggests that Sithole favours Chiefs. What makes you think we are suggesting that? Simply because he was in charge of the Final in 2010? Come on, man.
Rise khosi Rise
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA TTM kanti you read this clown's comments and get crushed daily hehehe I'm sure its your daily dose neh! mina my advice drink your coke lite with ice and relax!
TTM,i personally don't doubt your reporting but the Comments on game of these magnitude "may" suggest u think he might favour KC.Wait till after the game you will see wht the comments will be.
Last year piret supporters were relieving their stress on you,calling you all sorts of names even after you confessed you are a piret supporter.I don recall anyone coming back to apologise to you.
Anyway good reporting on your part,i just hope these is not only done for these game.
But TTM that is the direction and impression this report gives; maybe you should put more examples to minimise impressions of bias to this kind of reporting E.g. you can allude to number of times Sithole has refereed the final including other teams, unless of course he either has no experience in the final or Chiefs is simply the only clubs to which he has encou8nted in finals... either way, just give more examples to cover all points to maximise objectivity....
