The 35-year-old spent years as an assistant to various managers in the PSL until he was given a chance to prove his worth at Bucs in August
Former Orlando Pirates captain Lucky Lekgwathi believes fans started losing confidence in Rhulani Mokwena when the team kept losing matches and donating points to other teams during his stint as head coach.
The 35-year-old mentor was in charge of the Sea Robbers for four months between August and December, when Dr. Irvin Khoza hired Josef Zinnbauer.
According to Lekgwathi, Mokwena's team became sluggish soon before he was replaced and this is what could have led to Khoza appointing the German coach.
