Zebras supporters ready for Mozambique

By press time yesterday, the Zebras Supporters Club Gaborone branch had already filled the first bus with 74 supporters travelling to Maputo for the Zebras 2010 World Cup/AFCON qualifier against Mozambique on Sunday.

The spokesperson for the Gaborone branch, Benjamin Kelepang told Mmegi Sport yesterday that they were not sure whether they would be able to get the second bus going. "People are still coming but we got the money and told them that if the numbers fail to fill the second bus, we will return their money and only use one bus," he said. He also revealed that other branches, Mahalapye, Tlokweng and Thamaga have also confirmed that they are travelling. "We always encourage people to pay as early as possible so that we can plan in time; people should stop this tendency of coming at the last minute. The second bus cannot go half or quarter full," he added. If they manage to fill the second bus, it would serve as motivation for the players who are under pressure to come home with a positive result.

Kalepang revealed that for away games, it is common practice that they use two buses.
