Kaizer Chiefs' Edmilson Dove Pleads With Fans To Bear With Them

Kaizer Chiefs defender Edmilson Dove has pleaded with Amakhosi supporters to remain faithful and not give up on them, even though the club has made some empty promises.

Dove, who recently returned from a foot injury with some positive individual performances, was addressing the media ahead of their Betway Premiership encounter with TS Galaxy. The two sides meet at the Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane on Saturday at 7pm.

It has been 10 years, and players and coaches have come and gone, with the promise to restore the club to glory remaining unfulfilled. As things stand, Chiefs are currently battling for a Top 8 finish, and their only remaining chance to end a 10-year trophy drought is to win the Nedbank Cup, in which they are set to face Mamelodi Sundowns in the semi-final.

Chiefs fans, however, have proven to be the most loyal in the PSL, consistently outnumbering any oppositions supporters at venues across the country.

'From our supporters, we cant ask for more than what theyve given us. Theyve been with us through thick and thin, even though the season hasnt gone the way we wanted it to,' pleaded Dove.
