Lamontville Golden Arrows have parted ways with head coach Pitso Dladla, the club announced on Thursday.
Dladla took over the head coach role from Manqoba Mngqithi after the latter joined Young Africans SC.

Arrows started the campaign without a defeat in their first six games, and also reached the MTN8 semi-final, beating Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns along the way.
However, after the club got kicked out in the MTN8 semi-final second leg, Arrows are now without a win in their last five games.
Just on Wednesday, Dladla had confirmed that he has the full backing by the club, but less than 24 hours later the former Richards Bay coach has now been sacked.
“Lamontville Golden Arrows Football Club and Coach Pitso Dladla have agreed to part ways effective immediately,” read a statement.
“The Club would like to thank Coach Dladla for his efforts, commitment and dedication during his tenure at the Club.”
With former Arrows coach Mandla Ncikazi vacating his role as Orlando Pirates assistant, it is widely expected that he will take over the head coach role at the club.
