The cruel, gruelling, and unforgiving promotion playoffs are in full swing. There has been some heartbreak already, while other teams have already sighted a glimmer of glory. It seems the supporters are beaming with excitement at the possibility of Highlands Park being the newcomers to the PSL, and there is definitely a lot of love for coach Allan Freese.
"Great coach who can learn and understand his players very quickly." – Andile-Pat
"Steve Komphela X 32 = Allan Freese." – Hasela-Khosi
"Freese, you deserve to coach a team in the PSL. I like your coaching style because it's working for you." – Aubrey Sadawana
"Freese, Hunt, Solomon have similar philosophies. They keep compact and make sure their opposition don't enjoy possession in their half. Freese will frustrate all big teams with his park-the-bus strategy and heat on the counter." – Khuks
Highlands Park currently lead the promotion playoff table with six points. Their weekend victory over Shaun Bartlett's University of Pretoria has set them up with a decent chance of playing in the PSL next season, while Tuks, by their own admission, need a miracle to keep their hopes alive.
Do you think Highlands Park would be an exciting team to watch in the PSL next season? What could we expect from them?
