Black Leopards caretaker coach Mongezi Bobe says they had already packed their bags preparing to go back home but are now “frustrated” to remain in the Premier Soccer League (PSL) bio-bubble ahead of the play-offs.
Leopards succumbed to a 3-0 defeat by Mamelodi Sundowns courtesy of a Lebohang Maboe hat-trick at Dobsonville Stadium on Saturday.
Going into their final match of the PSL season placed 14th on the standings, the defeat to Downs pulled them down to position 15 and they now require a play-off triumph to assure themselves of next season’s top-flight league football.
