Komphela will appear in front of the Safa Technical Committee panel of Fanyana Sibanyoni, the technical committee chair, Safa technical director Serame Letsoaka, CEO Robin Petersen, Jomo Sono, Clive Barker, Farouk Khan, Buti Mathathe and Suoane Ramashala.
The other four candidates for the job – Neil Tovey, Gavin Hunt, Ephraim 'Shakes' Mashaba and Gordon Igesund – underwent the "gruelling" interview process last Thursday, with Safa reportedly "very happy" with the presentations. Who do you think should get the job? Have your say on our Facebook page!
Komphela oversaw Bafana Bafana's 3-0 victory over Gabon on Friday, in a match he said he would use for "experimenting" with line-ups, and the former national Under-23 coach will hope the positive result will count in his favour.
The Sunday World reported over the weekend that the new Bafana coach will earn roughly half of what Pitso Mosimane was earning – R400,000 to R500,000 a month.




Your comments on this story...
You've had your chance before and I'm not convinced that you can lead us to glory . Thanks for gradding the bull by its horns and coach our national team, while this moegoes(Pitso) was busy with CCMA
then for the assistance lets have neil Tovey or Farauk Khan
lol, serious and my worry is that it will be difficult to have this queen's language lecture from steve and still evaluate him on the same time. Because in one sentence you are guaranteed three words to search from your dictionary but steve will obviously wont wait for the chief!!
Nonkonyane has already contacted his inyanga to give him some muthi to understand the queens language. This morning he was buzy echatha, ephalaza, egquma, eqa umlilo, & ekhwifa ethi "andisazi isingisi namuhla"
Lol. Mzwandile! Lol. My hopes lie in the fact that Jomo is there!
He will see through all that fancy grammar and and put his foot down, phela eversince Stebe got in the picture, Nontshinga has been nowhere to be seen. mh, mh.
From a political point, Steve stand a good chance, Butana Kompela might play his card here.
From a competency point, Gordon n Gavin stand a good chance.
Mashaba we dont have time to re-cycle failure - Same reason why Pitso was fired. Shakes is big headed.
Lol now do you see the result of hiring a Chieffrom Baziya in Umtata for the adminitration posts...? khona what does a chief know about futbal...
At Sweyts
Do you still remember that guy on marawa at metro who use to call and complain " Nonkonyana used to so vocal Mr Marawa, what happened now?? did he also got a handshake or something??" lol
what are you talking about? Gordon can be a assistant referee for all i care. Steve Khompela should get this job and assisted by Gavin Hunt. Gucci Man i have a feeling you are pregnant, you are very angry for a 40 something woman.
