With the 'Iron Duke' currently 77 years of age and other-long serving executive committee members also getting on in years, including Dr. Kaizer Motaung (chairman of Kaizer Chiefs, 80), there are question marks on whether the PSL has a succession plan in place or they left it too late to groom other young football administrators.
Bobby Motaung, who has taken a more background approach - although in the same capacity at Chiefs - has suggested what it would take for a seamless transition of power in the PSL leadership.
"What I've learned from working with the Chairman as our father is to give people an opportunity to grow, spread the wings, not to hold onto things. Sometimes some people want to hold on to things because of experience," Motaung said on Smash Sports YouTube Channel.
"But when you share the wisdom, it becomes easier for you to think even about the succession plan, that if I'm not there tomorrow, what's gonna happen to the industry or business? So, having an open mind and sharing wisdom makes it easier, without ambition.

Like Khoza, who worked his way through from being a cashier and gate controller at the stadiums, Bobby Motaung also cut his teeth working at the gates, before taking up bigger responsibilities at Amakhosi.
