Dillon Sheppard was appointed as an assistant to Arthur Zwane at the beginning of the season. He has sworn to support the head coach throughout all times.

10111 has experienced a very inconsistent first season as head coach of Amakhosi. When they win, they go on a good run, but when the chips are down, it can get as ugly as three consecutive defeats.

It is through the tough times which Sheppard has renounced his support for Zwane.

“My role as coach Zwane’s assistant is to assist him in every possible way,” he told members of the media.

“I am there for him as support and when times are tough, he knows I’ve got his back one hundred per cent. When he goes home at night, hopefully he can sleep well in the knowledge that he has all the support that he needs in the world, because we know what this job is about, being the coach of Kaizer Chiefs and the pressures that come with it.

“He knows he’s got me totally behind him, 24/7, and whatever is needed, I’m there for that,” he added.

Amakhosi take on Casric Stars in the Nedbank Cup this weekend. They are in third place in the Motsepe Foundation Championship.

“It’s important to approach the game with the right mentality because when you go into a game it’s about a quarterfinal berth waiting for us so we have to do what is required to win a football match and I think we are in the right space to ensure we go through to the last eight,” Sheppard added.

Amakhosi are hoping to end a barren 8-year trophy drought. Dillon Sheppard Says He 100% Has Arthur Zwane’s Back!
