September says they are enjoying a good relationship with the technical director Morgan Mammila as part of the technical team at Chippa.

"We comfortable having him there. Sometimes emotions take over when sitting on the bench and you want to give instructions. He knows he is a technical director," said September during a press conference after the match against the Brazilians in Tshwane on Saturday.

"It's just that we have this relationship because we are new in the club and he knows the players.

"We get to understand the players now, we know the players, the players we know, the confusion will be with people sitting on the stands. They know the man is technical director, he is  involved in technical stuff in terms of the game on the field".

"So Ja, we working well there is good unity, it's just for us to explain to you guys on the other side to say we respect the space and we understand each other," he added.

The Chilli Boys remain in 13th position on the DStv premiership table with 23 points after playing 20 games so far this season.
