Updated | By Benedict Ngwenya
Premier Soccer League referees have been complaining about refereeing decisions. Coaches and fans are now expressing their thoughts.
On Tuesday we discussed refereeing decisions in both the PSL and the Premier League, the upcoming Soweto derby and Usain Bolt’s eagerly-anticipated announcement. Listen to the podcast then read more below:
Cape Town City coach, Benni McCarthy has already been fined this season for calling a referee Phillip Tinyani 'a cow' and he has been asked to explain his utterances about officials in their 2-2 draw against Golden Arrows.
Mamelodi Sundowns coach, Pitso Mosimane continues to talk about referees in spite of having just returned from suspension.

The main culprit is referee Victor Gomes who is lamented by both coaches for giving unnecessary penalties and red cards.
Platinum Stars coach, Roger De Sa even said this past Saturday that whenever Gomes is the referee, you must be prepared for atrocious decisions.
The big question is, should referees take to the podium and explain their decisions? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below:
