New Rich Boyz well prepared for NFD campaign
Excitement mounts as NFD season draws near
THE aim is for ‘business as usual’ at the uMhlathuze Stadium when Richards Bay FC begin their National First Division campaign against Real Kings on Saturday.
With optimism flowing from his every pore, the New Rich Boyz’ recently-appointed General Manager, Richard Makhoba, believes the same ingredients will ensure the same outcome.
‘We remain with the entire technical team intact that won the NFD at a canter last season, from head coach Roger Sikhakhane all the way through to the specialised assistant coaches and physio.
‘We also have the bulk of the winning squad – and the football philosophy and the brand of style we play will remain constant.
‘With the continued support of the soccer loving public in this region we are determined to emulate our predecessors.’
