Marumo Gallants chairman Abram Sello has had the final word on the recent disputes with former coach Abdeslam Ouaddou, who has now taken over the reins at Orlando Pirates.
Ouaddou was recruited by Gallants in March but oversaw just 12 matches before announcing his resignation from the club. Shockingly, the club hit back just a day later, claiming not to have received a formal resignation.

What followed was a serious disagreement and reports of more internal issues that had strained Ouaddou's relationship with the club.
Nevertheless, that all seems to be history as Moroccan-French coach eventually joined the Sea Robbers as head coach while Gallants unveiled 28-year-old Alexandre Lafitte as the new head coach.
Speaking at Frenchman's unveiling on Monday, Sello said the issues between Gallants and Ouaddou are water under the bridge.
"The matter between Marumo Gallants and coach Abdeslam Ouaddou was resolved, and we parted amicably," Sello said.
"We have both moved on. As you all know, Coach Ouaddou is now working for Orlando Pirates. I wish him well in this new adventure.
"Let us respect him and allow him an opportunity to fix his new job."

Having finished tenth last season, Lafitte's immediate mandate will be to break into the top eight.
At the top of the table, Ouaddou will be tasked with challenging Mamelodi Sundowns for the league title.
