"We'll certainly survive relegation this season, we'll end up at 35 points and that will take up away from the drop zone.
.
"We'll host Unicem Rovers at home that offers us a lifeline to grab three points to stay alive.

"I'm disappointed we struggled throughout the whole season but considering the circumstances we saw ourselves at the start of the season I'm constrained to point accusing fingers on anybody.
.
"Adequate preparation is the watchword if you must achieve result in football, we never had any form of preparation prior to the commencement of the league.

.
"In football there is no replacement for home, no replacement for your home supporters, we missed everything in the season that's going by," he said.
