A former Kaizer Chiefs defender has made a plea on what he feels is unfair treatment directed at the club's head coach Molefi Ntseki from some sections of the supporters.
Chiefs went into the FIFA international break sitting 8th on the log with 11 points from three wins and two draws from nine appearances and there have been calls from some sections of unhappy supporters for Ntseki to be relieved of his duties.

Amakhosi have had incidents of missile-throwing by their supporters this season and were fined by the League and made to apologise through the club's official website.
Former Chiefs defender Tlou Molekwane, speaking exclusively to the Siya crew, says the signs were there from the word go as Ntseki didn't receive a warm welcome from some sections of the supporters.
"Let me tell you something, coach Ntseki was never given a chance from the word go after his appointment. From the moment of his announcement, people were negative already and were all over social media, Ntseki this and Ntseki that, and they never supported the coach and it's wrong. Whoever is in charge of the team, and it doesn't matter who, he must be supported. The supporters should play their role which is supporting the team through thick and thin," said Molekwane.

"I have seen Chiefs win and the coach was never given credit for his tactics, line-up and whatever that he did that worked. The credit always goes to the players but whenever they feel there has to be negativity that goes straight to the coach and it's not fair. It's not good at all," he said.
Chiefs are scheduled to host AmaZulu at FNB Stadium in their next fixture on Saturday in the Carling Knockout.
