Squad12 Oct 2026

Thato Shiang says Jomo Cosmos went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Match10 Oct 2026

4 matches without a win for Jomo Cosmos

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Jomo Cosmos are no longer polite ones.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Frank Angong in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Jomo Cosmos this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings12 Oct 2026

Ifeagwu Ojukwu runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 20. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match10 Oct 2026

A bad afternoon for Jomo Cosmos against Bloemfontein Celtic

1‑2 to Bloemfontein Celtic, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad12 Oct 2026

No hiding place for Aden Dreyer

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Aden Dreyer, and the manager let it.

Match5 Oct 2026

Jomo Cosmos sink to position 15

6 points, and a fixture list that is running out. The mathematics are not yet cruel, but they are no longer kind.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Siyabonga Makhoba says Jomo Cosmos went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Aden Dreyer is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 23 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Ifeagwu Ojukwu in a row with a teammate

Squad5 Oct 2026

Monnapule Saleng gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Match3 Oct 2026

Jomo Cosmos come up short against Black Aces

Black Aces left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Player ratings5 Oct 2026

Mooketsi Phindela runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 17. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Boardroom5 Oct 2026

93% of the income goes out in wages at Jomo Cosmos

Every club in football pays most of what it earns to its players. Paying nearly all of it is a different arrangement, and it has ended the same way every time somebody has tried it.

Market5 Oct 2026

Talks stall between Jomo Cosmos and Gontse Molefe

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Squad28 Sep 2026

Tempers go at Jomo Cosmos

Ifeagwu Ojukwu was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad28 Sep 2026

The manager makes an example of Ricardo Williams

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Match26 Sep 2026

Jomo Cosmos come up short against Maritzburg United

Maritzburg United left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Player ratings28 Sep 2026

Nobody could get near Monnapule Saleng

Successful dribbles: 17. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad28 Sep 2026

Denwin Farmer is still paying for one afternoon at Jomo Cosmos

Nobody will confirm this and nothing else explains the last month of selections. A costly error buys a player a period of being second choice that is always longer than the error was.

Squad28 Sep 2026

Sibongiseni Ngcobo dropped after a run of poor form

The one version of being left out a player cannot argue with, and the one he takes worst. Somebody else has been better and the team sheet says so, in public, every week until it changes.

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

Age has not caught Matsi Sono yet — 7.99

At 34 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 7.99 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Rorisang Raborife asks to leave Jomo Cosmos

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Match29 Aug 2026

4 matches without a win for Jomo Cosmos

Match29 Aug 2026

Matsi Sono rescues a point for Jomo Cosmos

It needed Matsi Sono to find the net to bring anything home at all: 1‑1 against SuperSport United, and half the dressing room will call it a point won.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Siyabonga Makhoba asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

The chances came and went for Gontse Molefe

5 shots, and a count that reads like a good afternoon until you check the other column. Strikers survive weeks like this on the understanding that the chances keep arriving; the day they stop is the day it becomes a problem.
