KickOff.com has learnt that Orlando Pirates’ scheduled press conference today will be to announce the sacking of Augusto Palacios as head coach.

‘Njenje’ has been under fire after a horror run of form which has seen the Buccaneers winless – and goalless – in the last four matches.

It is understood that Palacios will return to his role as technical director of the youth development – with former Bafana Bafana coach Pitso Mosimane, ex-Bidvest Wits coach Roger de Sa or Bulgarian legend Hristo Stoichkov could take over.

I have heard similar cries from sundowns fans as well requesting Pitso Mosimane to be appointed as head coach, i might be missing something here, by the way, what did Pitso Mosimane achieve as a coach?

All psl Trophies: The same Njenje gave Chiefs 3 libolo or do you want me to say Mabone.
One thing about our Chairman is that, when he visits the branches and hear our concerns, we know he is taking them seriously.
Njenje staying is good news for young players such Mashigo C,Ndulula.
Phungwayo + Nsunda Miyeni + Jele = i see more pain for Zrathane n Dogs
