Jele, who got a serious knee injury in November against Bidvest Wits, has not played a match since then, but the Buccaneers faithful are voting for him in large numbers to be part of the Carling Cup next month. But while his team-mates will be on holiday during the off-season, Jele will be training alone to make sure that when the season starts, he will be in a good shape. "All I can say regarding my injury is ‘so far so good', I'm just hoping ahead of next season that I will be well and fit again," he says.
_quote "I'm also hoping to be ready for the Carling Cup but now that it is the off-season most of the guys are away but I won't be going away. I will be working hard so that I can be fit for next season." The defender says he is encouraged by Bucs fans voting for him in the Carling Cup while he didn't play much this past season. "For me I think it is a huge thing that the supporters still recognise me that I make a difference while I'm there, so I'm happy to be one of the players that they are voting for. "I hope that I'm not going to disappoint them on July 28," he adds.

Honestly this Carling Cup is just pure nonsense & injustice for other teams.
-------------
I agree with you, This competition is nonsense. It weaken South African Football.
Tsipa tse ntsho Tsipaaaaa until bucs stops this Treble thing that has become a bitter pill to swallow.
Ichuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!
Any eleven players at Bucs can go on to the field and strangle this Zebras with Brighton Mhlongo as GK for the day
@TP dat 's all about business my chomie and it 's Ayoba why don't you blame Macufe and Mopani in Venda. i don't see de different between dis tournament and previous one, bcos for instance you will find Dunusa leading de Galaxy and dat thing by votes during de game only 350 fans and de rest is Galaxy and dat thing of naZOOrena, even if Man United can play against dunusa or Ajax on de same day all attention wil be at FNB.
Or are u worried to face de Galaxy, just buy two tickets one for you and one for Makoti and keep quite.
I almost cried when you got injured mfana kithi but I didn't loose hope now I'm happy to see you making a return, I had a belief in you.
Welcome back Ntwana means de Galaxy we don't need to sign strikers bcos all our defenders are scoring non-stop.
Next cson we will introduced a new playing system four at de back six on de middle playing without strikers, Le tlonya ke a lebotsa.
For them to scrap that by reasoning that its too much for the PSL was pure hypocrycy to other teams though yet again in reality Bucs and Chiehfs would dominate in terms of hype and fan base in the cup.
yet again We still have the Macufe's and similar tournaments which no one is complaining about though..
Other teams can also have their own tournaments wit their own ideas.This is proof that Chimps n Bucs r big brands n other teams rely on them 2 survive in PSL.I wish the Charity Spectacular can come back but not includ Chimps n Pirates then we can c if its gona b a success
Eish my back 4 will b stronger as always once again. Full backs Jele and Phungwayo lol, Centre backs Sangweni and Leghwathi or(Mathoho). all these important players cn score crucial goals unlyk other unmentionable useless gud 4 nthng defenders (naZOOrena brothers and Sunfools).Leghwathi must rest coz hs arms are injured due to lifting of 6 heavy cups in a short space of time.Josephs must b next to take this heavy responsibility i.e if Mathoho is signed. Bucs i'll remain.
To think it replaced the irreplacable, traditional one-day soccer extravaganza, and initiation to local football........the Charity Cup is a shame.
Cabanga nje, my son will never experience a proper induction into our diski and that scares the hell out of me, cause what if he decides taking fingerprints at Home Affairs with a scotch, velvet suit from 9-5 like le-Joko tea u-King is glamarous enough?
DiehardBucs........Atleast make your case have some weight before you debate, you ca'nt compare anything to the Charity Spectacular my friend.........At Five to Six years, my buddies were already attending these whole-dayers unsupervised, no one needs to ask if it strengthened my understanding of the local game cause it's obvious.
I-Carling Cup on the other hand, requires one to drink heavily or pick-up amapaniki njenge hlanya to participate, I mean really! Dough.
