ERIC Tinkler may have been disappointed at finally losing a league match this season.

"I am disappointed, obviously, that we dropped the three points; disappointed in how we conceded the goal because we discussed it ahead of the game," he said.

But the Sekhukhune United coach is not about to be dissuaded from what he has been building. Not when his team have been ticking all the right boxes since the start of the 2025/26 Betway Premiership campaign.

The weekend's 1-0 defeat to Polokwane City was merely an aberration - a small bump on an otherwise promising route that could yet see Tinkler and Ba Bina Noko challenging for the championship.
