“When we hired Rulani Mokwena, we said he would hold it down until the end of the season,” Khoza told the media.
“They (fans) knew that it was either right or wrong but what is important is that we give him this opportunity because he deserves it and he will continue until the end of the season as we have already agreed.”
Pirates will resume their league campaign against Polokwane City next week Tuesday.
