Golden Arrows head coach Mandla Ncikazi has made it clear that he has no intention of speaking negatively about Orlando Pirates, despite having moved on from his previous role at the Soweto club.

Ncikazi, who previously worked with Pirates, has maintained a respectful attitude towards the team and the people he worked with during his time there. His latest comments underline his decision to keep a positive relationship with his former employers rather than engage in public criticism.

The coach's connection with Pirates remains an important part of his football journey. His experience at the club gave him an opportunity to work within a high-profile environment and contribute to a team that regularly competes for major honours in South African football.

However, his current responsibility is with Golden Arrows, where he is focused on managing the team and improving its performances. Ncikazi has continued his coaching career in the Premier Soccer League, taking on the challenge of guiding Arrows while maintaining the professional relationships he developed elsewhere.

His comments also reflect the importance of respecting previous employers in football, where coaches and players often move between clubs but remain connected through their experiences.

For Ncikazi, leaving Pirates does not mean he must become a critic of the club. Instead, he appears comfortable acknowledging his past association without allowing it to affect his current responsibilities.

His position is also a reminder that professional football relationships do not always have to end in public disagreements or criticism. Coaches can move forward with new assignments while still appreciating the opportunities they received at previous clubs.

Ncikazi's immediate attention remains on Golden Arrows and the work required to keep the team competitive in the league.
