The Voice (Francistown)
6 May 2008
Tasc's survival chances remain in the balance as they host an ambitious Gaborone United at the Francistown stadium on Thursday.
The Tongo boys have been blowing hot and cold without a win in their last five games. They lost to Gunners, Ecco, BDF XI, Tafic and drew against Township Rollers. This week they renew their rivalry against GU less than four weeks after their rearranged first round game that was played a fortnight ago in which they lost 2-1. Tasc go into this fixture more in hope than expectation as they meet a side that is under pressure to maintain their second position in the league table.
This week Tasc PRO Jonas Ikgopoleng expressed fears that the club may be headed for the relegation dogfight. "We've given up expectations of finishing in the top eight and all we are fighting for now is to survive relegation. We are dangerously placed on the twelfth spot now and face difficult fixtures against GU, Jwaneng Comets and Notwane. We need to win at least two of the remaining fixtures to be certain of safety."
