Bon Voyage Jimmy Tau

Kaizer Chiefs former captain Jimmy Tau had his chance and he never disappointed: Bon Voyage Mate!

As sad as this is to all Amakhosi faithfuls it is done, there is no one to blame!

Completing his studies was the best thing he could do, we also have to understand that this is business. And from that perspective, Chiefs cannot keep a player who seems all but done due to injuries, looking at it from a business perspective he had to leave so Chiefs makes space for a youngster 'they' consider an asset (future-investment) for a long run.

Tau played his part in our team and now I thought he would retire, as his injury suggested age is taking toll on the man, since he was promised an admin position related to his qualifications. But now he insisted that he still wanted to play, so considering that Amakhosi coach Stuart Baxter says he is not in his plans management had to act.

And now he is leaving not that Chiefs would have loved to keep him in the office but because he feels he can still play a few more seasons.

The very same thing happened to Thabo Mooki. Chiefs wanted to give him an admin position but he refused because he still wanted to play. Let’s be glad that Tau played his role while he had the chance and now it’s time for new beginnings.

Bon Voyage Jimmy Raboholo Tau... Go Well Amakhosi Ambassador!
