Ban unruly soccer coaches like Roger de Sa

MY NINE-YEAR-OLD son and 14-year-old daughter, who both love soccer, were very disturbed to see Bidvest Wits coach Roger de Sa's disgraceful behaviour during their match against Kaizer Chiefs on Tuesday night.

De Sa had a fit of rage and took it out on the referee.

I trust you will bring this matter to the attention of Safa and the PSL and not keep quiet about it.

Something drastic has to be done to curb the behaviour of some of our soccer coaches. Don't just ban them from one or two games but ban them from a substantial number of games to bring sanity back.

Enough is enough.

Until action is taken I have vowed not to watch these coaches' teams on television or to take my family to the stadium where their teams are playing.

This is something we have been doing for years.
