Troubled Maritzburg dangle financial carrot before players in a bid to avert relegation

Maritzburg could hardly have envisioned themselves in this position after what seemed a breakthrough season in 2017-18‚ finishing a benchmark fourth and reaching a first cup final in the Nedbank Cup‚ losing 1-0 there against Free State Stars.He is now Pirates' second assistant to head coach Milutin Sredojevic.

A disastrous four defeats followed under Muhsin Ertugral‚ and by the time Eric Tinkler arrived in late January Maritzburg were 10 points behind the other relegation battlers. United have significantly improved under Tinkler‚ who has added three more victories – all at Harry Gwala. But a team under pressure have also lost five times in the former Pirates‚ Cape Town City and SuperSport United coach’s eight matches.

“What Eric has done is change the attitude of the players. I think the attitude from the beginning of the season‚ in the first half‚ was that the players were still in the clouds‚” Kadodia said.
