“Listen‚ you see what’s going on in the world right now. It’s very much still part and parcel of society today. But it’s only because of ignorance.' marc_strydom

Bafana Bafana’s all-time top scorer began his head coaching career with a promising two-and-a-half seasons at Cape Town City where he won the 2018 MTN8 and reached the 2017 final‚ and finished fifth and fourth in the Absa Premiership.

“But in today’s society‚ do you see a lot of us coaching in Europe? Because‚ ja‚ it’s just how society is that the majority of club owners don’t feel comfortable having an African or black person in charge of their team. “I’ve not experienced a situation yet where I’ve applied for a job and somebody else go it because of the colour of their skin.

“What the manager had achieved‚ and his experience and what he’s been through in his job was suitable for what Hearts needed at the time‚ and not because he had a lighter skin colour than me.”
