During his post-match interview with SuperSport TV, filled with intensity and relief, the Bafana Bafana legend cast a piercing gaze upon the establishment, daring to question the integrity within its hallowed corridors.

Against the backdrop of their hard-fought, razor-thin 1-0 triumph over Casric Stars in the PSL Promotion/Relegation Playoff encounter at a wet Athlone Stadium on Wednesday, Bartlett's words reverberated like thunderclaps.

“It was an emotional game. More than that, I cannot ask more of my players. We had to fight a lot of things, but I can tell you one thing, God will take care of the injustice of this league,” Bartlett said, who broke down into tears after the final whistle sounded.

“He will take care of everything, and that's why we're getting these wins. It's not a coincidence that we keep winning a game 1-0 … We don't have to fight some battles, but we fight on the field, but at the end of the day, it's a shock that was well worth the victory here today.”
