The
Glamour Boys will have a score to settle with Golden Arrows when the two sides
square up at Peter Mokaba Stadium on Tuesday, 06 November 2012.
The
game will be the first this season for the Glamour Boys in Polokwane’s
impressive Peter Mokaba Stadium, a stadium that Chiefs have used for the past
two seasons as an alternative home ground.
Last
season on this corresponding fixture at Peter Mokaba Stadium, Golden Arrows
broke Chiefs unbeaten record following a flying start in the Premiership and
the away fixture the Glamour Boys managed just a point.
Football
Manager, Bobby Motaung commented; “Golden Arrows have always been a tricky side
to come up against because of the style of football they play. They have given
us problems in the past and we have a score to settle with them and that alone
makes this game a massive one for us as the Club.
“The
Head Coach, Mr. Stuart Baxter has already alluded to the importance of the team
to remain focus on the objectives the Club has set this season. The players and
everyone associated with the Club is united towards Reclaiming the Glory. We
remain unbeaten in the Absa Premiership and we want to keep that record
intact.”
Corporate
Communications Manager, Vina Maphosa added; “There have been calls since the
start of the season from our branches as far as Giyani on when the Club will
return to Polokwane. We had to listen to our supporters because the ground is
an alternative venue for us and of course we have enjoyed success there over
the past two seasons. We would then like to urge the fans to buy the tickets
early to avoid disappointment.
“The
preparations for the game started immediately after the team returned from
Pietermaritzburg and the players have put the disappointment of the draw behind
them. The spirit among the players remains at its highest and they are
determined to bring back glory to the Club. The Amakhosi are not going to sleep
until this happens,” added Maphosa with supreme confidence.
This
being Kaizer Chiefs first home league game at Peter Mokaba Stadium this season
entertainment will be galore and the fans will not go home empty handed as in
conjuction with main sponsors, Vodacom the Club will have prizes for the fans
