Supporters Forum: Why I ditched Chiefs for Sekhukhune

In this edition of Supporters Forum, KickOff speaks to Sekhukhune United supporter Phuti Chochi about his love for the Limpopo side.

The Johannesburg-based Chochi, who is originally from Moletjie in Limpopo, is currently studying BCom Accounting at the University of Johannesburg.

Club supported?

"I used to support Kaizer Chiefs but changed because of their current performance.

"So, I decided to support my home team Sekhukhune as they need support from the people of Limpopo.

"They are not in the PSL to add numbers or to be relegated. They are there to compete, hence I feel they need our support."

How long supported?

"Since this is our third season, I started supporting Sekhukhune in their second season in the PSL. I started last season, to be exact, and it was an easy decision for me to switch to Sekhukhune as my relative Seun Ledwaba is a former player at Sekhukhune."

Are you happy with the bosses?

"I'm very happy. I think they are one of the best managements in the league, they are fully committed and always encourage players to do their best on the pitch. They are not too involved in the coach's decisions."

Are you happy with the coach?

"Lehlohonolo Seema, what a great coach we have, and he is still young. It's not been that long since he retired, so he knows a lot about the needs of the current players. He is doing a very good job."

Are you happy with the players?

"Yes, even though I feel we still need to do some additions for the squad to be competitive next season.

"At the beginning of the season, I was not happy with them as they were not showing enough hunger for success, but the arrival of Lehlohonolo Seema saw them fixing some of their mistakes."

Who do you want them to sign?

"I think we need a striker because Linda 'Figo' Mntambo is not a striker but a midfielder.

"We need to sign a striker like Iqraam Rayners. And also, we need to strengthen our defence because we've been conceding a lot of goals. We need someone who can complement Daniel Cardoso."

Your message to the team?

"Let me start with the fans - Let's continue supporting Sekhukhune United, let's go to the stadium to support them as they're doing a good job.

"And to the players - Guys, please push, don't lose your competitive edge, continue doing your best."
