FootballKaizer Chiefs Coach Arthur Zwane Irritated by Stuart Baxter's Backstabbing Claims
- Former Kaizer Chiefs coach Stuart Baxter's claims of politicking within the club's setup have ruffled a few feathers
- Current head coach Arthur Zwane has hit back about his allegations of backstabbing that the Englishman experienced

Former Kaizer Chiefs coach, Stuart Baxter's words, have had an incendiary effect inside the club.

Contextually, this was around the late November, early December period last year when a Covid-19 outbreak swept through the club's Naturena stronghold. Baxter suggested that this might have spelt the beginning of the end for him as cracks started showing.
