Dube Birds set for home games in BloemfonteinThe original Soweto giants, Moroka Swallows, will be playing some of their home games in Bloemfontein during the 2023/24 Premier Soccer League season. The Dube Birds first home game of the season is scheduled to be played on 8 August against Cape Town City at the Dr Petrus Molemela Stadium. In round four, Swallows will play against the newly promoted Cape Town Spurs in the City of Roses as well. As matters stand, the defending champions, Mamelodi Sundowns, as well as Royal AM and Stellenbosch FC are scheduled to make a turn in Bloemfontein, however, these fixtures are only scheduled for next year. Apart from five games to be played in Bloemfontein, Swallows, will continue to play the rest of their home games at the iconic Dobsonville Stadium.
Like the EFL Cup and the English Football League divisions in England, the league takes its title sponsor's name to determine its official common name: At the conclusion of each season, the champion and runner-up of the Premier Division qualify for the CAF Champions League, while the 3rd-place team and the Nedbank Cup champions qualify for the CAF Confederation Cup. The bottom team in the league is automatically relegated and replaced by the winner of the GladAfrica Championship, whiles the team finishing immediately above the bottom team enters a mini-league playoff series with the 2nd and 3rd-placed league-finished teams of the GladAfrica Championship, with the playoff winners earning their place in the Premiership for the following season. The league's broadcaster is SuperSport, who in turn sub-leases the broadcasting rights to the SABC, so as to broadcast some matches on public television in South Africa.

South African Premier Division - WikipediaThe South African Premier Division, officially referred to as the DStv Premiership for sponsorship purposes, is the premier men's professional soccer league and the highest division in the league system of South Africa, organised since 1996. As the top-level division in South Africa, it is commonly referred to as the Premier Soccer League (PSL) – the administrator of association football in the country. [1] The league was founded in 1996 after an agreement between the National Soccer League and the remnants of the National Professional Soccer League. It is stated on its website that the former name still exists today, but for legal purposes, with the Premier Soccer League being its trade name.
[4] On 24 September 2020, Dr. Irvin Khoza and MultiChoice announced on live television that the new sponsor would be DStv, effectively rebranding the league as the DStv Premiership. [5][6] MultiChoice also announced that Showmax would replace DStv as the jersey sponsor of SuperSport United F. C. so the latter would be independent to sponsor the league outright. [5] The league has had title sponsorships since its inception.

SuperSport United won 3 league titles in a row between 2008 and 2010. As of May 2019, the league is rated as the 6th best in Africa according to the CAF 5-year ranking system. For the 2018–19 season, the PSL gives each club a monthly grant of R 2 million, with funds coming from the television broadcasting rights and national sponsorships, with the league champion earning R 10 million. In 2019, ABSA increased their sponsorship deal to the PSL to R 39. 9 million, [3] which meant that the league winners would secure R 15 million. ABSA would however announce its cancellation of its sponsorship with the PSL a year later on 4 June 2020.

In Injury time Celtic centreback Mzwanele Mahashe got on the end of a Menzi Masuku corner at the far post and knocked back in, Tchilimbou’s touch off a shoulder cleared off the line. Celtic came out applying pressure after the break. But Swallows were gifted the opener 10 minutes in. From a home throw-in Mahashe passed across goal to Chaine, who, under pressure from Ruzaigh Gamildien and Sekgota, managed only to steer an attempted lob upfield low into the chest and knee of the latter.
