We will be taking no prisoners – Baxter

Head Coach, Stuart Baxter has warned hosts Bloemfontein Celtic that his charges will go all out when the two sides meet in what promises to be a thrilling Absa Premiership encounter at the Free State Stadium in Bloemfontein on Sunday, 31 March 2013.



The two sides are meeting for the second time this season with the previous fixture held at the Nelson Mandela Stadium back in October 2012 ending in a stalemate.



Baxter is aware that it is going to be a difficult game; “It is a tough one in Bloemfontein against a side that is always looking at doing well at home. We are not expecting a good reception there and we will also be taking no prisoners.



“I am delighted that the players who were doing international duty came back with no injuries and everyone is raring to go. The competition for places for this game is high, a good headache for the Coach. Players have looked sharp in training this week.



The game against Celtics is the first of the three games in a space of seven days; “The schedule is tight and we have spoken a lot about the importance of recuperation, resting and taking lots of water. We will be traveling to different provinces but we are all professionals and I am not expecting any of the players to be complaining about the ground that we will be covering.



“It is expected as a Chiefs player that we rise above these challenges and we should. Our focus now is the trip to Bloemfontein and we will start thinking about the next assignment after the game on Sunday. We are expecting a good turnout of our supporters wearing their gold and black colours rallying behind the team. It should be a wonderful atmosphere and we are all looking forward to the trip,” added Baxter.



The game will kickoff at 15h30.
