While he’s optimistic that they will win the play-offs and remain in the Premiership, Swallows coach Dylan Kerr feels the club’s off-field chaos played no role in their poor form.
Swallows managed to get another shot at saving their top-flight status after a 2-all draw with Kaizer Chiefs in a dramatic last game of the season at FNB Stadium on Saturday.
As confirmed by SA Football Players Union deputy general secretary Calvin Motloung a fortnight ago, Swallows players refused to train because of unpaid salaries. Many felt the chaos at the club was the main reason they found themselves battling relegation. However, Kerr doesn’t think so.“Everybody assumes to know the issues we supposedly have at Swallows but if you look back at every game, that [the off-field chaos] didn’t affect the players. If you have issues you can’t play like that.
Pretoria University and All Stars are in the play-offs after finishing second and third in the second tier.
