Bidvest Wits' Matthew Booth has announced his retirement after 18 years in professional football, and that breaks my heart.

Booth has been a servant to South African football for many years, including his time with Bafana, and I wish he'd have just stuck around for one more season.

Wits seemed set to offer him another season, and his experience could've been invaluable for us. He's like a shepherd to guide the young players.

Booth, I wish you'd stay for just one more year. Do you think he should've stayed?
