Chiefs, Pirates left in limbo
Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates will now
wait to see what pre-season invitations they get after the cancellation of the
Vodacom Challenge.
The annual event will not take place this
year after organisers SAIL failed to secure opposition for the Soweto pair.
But that has left a massive hole in the
pre-season plans of the clubs, with the Vodacom Challenge having previously
been a key cog in their preparations for the new campaign.
The clubs will now wait to see what
invitations they receive to PSL pre-season tournaments around the country.
"Plans are still at a very low level.
But there are pre-season plans that the coach [Augusto Palacios] is putting in
place," Pirates PRO Mickey Modisane told Sowetan. "There are a few
invitations that have come through to the club, though right now there is
nothing that has been confirmed."
