Celtic in need of divine intervention: Komphela

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Bloemfontein Celtic coach Steve Komphela says they need prayers for divine intervention in order to overcome the club’s boardroom shenanigans.

Celtic lost their first match of the Absa Premiership after the players embarked on a week-long strike, protesting over unpaid signing-on fees.

 

The off-field drama has also overshadowed the club’s impressive performance which saw them collecting 13 of the 18 points in the six league matches.

Komphela is concerned that yesterday’s 1-nil defeat against Maritzburg United may compound the miseries of the cash-strapped Phunya Selesele club.

 

“Maybe we should never test God. We should not tempt fate; we should not test God; that’s what I said. Because God has been great with us, he’s been so merciful, he’s been guiding us, he’s been with us, and we’ve been getting victories.”

“And we’re becoming more cocky complacent or comfortable. God will just say, maybe they don’t appreciate my grace. And I hope it is not the turning point of him saying, maybe they don’t need this that I’m giving to them,” explains Komphela.
