Sutton Coldfield Town Overview

The KwaZulu-Natal outfit's coach was left seething at the officiating following his side's 2-0 defeat to Downs on Wednesday night. The newly-promoted outfit saw their impressive three-game unbeaten run come to an end at Loftus Versfeld, but the tactical battle was overshadowed by the manager's post-match frustrations regarding perceived inconsistency from the match officials.

The Tshwane giants edged the Betway Premiership new boys to move level on points with defending champions Orlando Pirates. Downs secured maximum points at home with goals from two former Stellenbosch FC attackers.

The treble-winning striker has received a glowing endorsement from former Mamelodi Sundowns star Sandile Ndlovu, who believes the forward is destined to be the Betway Premiership top goalscorer this season. The former Richards Bay man has hit the ground running with the Buccaneers, showing the clinical edge required to thrive at a massive club.

Bucs legend Steve Lekoelea has voiced serious concerns regarding the head coach's tactical approach early in the season. Despite a strong start to the campaign, the former Buccaneers playmaker believes the current policy of frequent squad rotation is a gamble that could eventually cost the Soweto giants dearly.
