“We are here to work; you can ask the board, not for me,” he stated when asked about the chances of getting retained.
Disappointed coach refuses to fault players after loss to Chiefs
Sekhukhune United interim coach Paulos Masehe has opened up on the disappointment of missing out on a third-place finish and the subsequent CAF Confederation Cup qualification spot.
“To be honest, for the players, you feel like at least it’s a little bit disappointing because they remained among the top pack for the longest time in this season. And they would have deserved maybe to finish at number three or number four. But we still have a chance we can finish number four,” he stated.
“And of which I think it will be fair for us, for them also, because they have worked extremely hard. They deserve something better this season and they gave everything. Even today [Sunday], I cannot fault anyone.
“The effort was there, the mistakes that happened, mistakes of the game of football, that you can make mistake on the other end and you get punished on the other end.

“But as for the boys, I wish that we can just win these two games and we finish number four. So that we can complement their good effort this season,” Masehe concluded.
