In Nandos with the linesman

While Wits are dealing with a disallowed goal, the linesman Stephen Moshotle is sitting in Nandos with a former colleague.

Stephen Moshotle: "Hape mmata, motho o tshwanetse ho re a ishebele. Phela those guys are giving us peanuts, we can’t rely on them. I wouldn’t be eating here in Nandos if I did not raise that flag last night. Hope I am given that Moses Mabhida game on the 19th so I can have a good Christmas lunch."
Jonas Nhlapo: “Lucky for you mmata, Sundowns is doing it quietly. Pirates e jampisitse and now I am sitting at home broke and smoking like hell”

Pirates call for team manager's head

“We are surprised how this man (Floyd) was brought to Orlando Pirates because we all know him as being a Kaizer Chiefs fan,” says Makhalanjalo. [KickOff.com 2009-11-16]

One wonders how Pirates faithful "Makhalanjalo" will react if he finds out that Dr Khoza (Pirates Chairman) is also a Chiefs fan...

Dog dies of stress

A dog named Bondas suffered nervous tension while starring at the PSL Log Standings. Neighbors suspect the dog remembered what happened to Bashin (a dog Bondas used to share bones with) when Pirates lost the league to SuperSport United in the previous season. One neighbor Khosi says the last time he saw the dog, it was staring at the PSL Log Standings, then stared at a shovel believed to have been used in Bashin’s death. The dog then collapsed when its owner Bakajuju stepped into the backyard shortly after Pirates-Santos game.

Ertugral and Motaung exchange words

As Mataung Jnr steps into the field for Ajax-Chiefs game, Ertugral pokes him “Hey Model, what are you doing here, aren’t you suppose to be doing a photo shoot for a magazine or something?” Jnr ignores him. 29 minutes into the game Jnr scores a superb goal and goes to celebrate in Ertugral’s coaching box and say to him “Hey camera-man, I am here for a shoot, is your camera working?” Ertugral smiles and respond “You must ask that Donkey Mabuti Khanyesa, he was behaving like you when we played Sundowns but in the end I was the last man laughing”“Oops, you are forgetting something, you are playing Chiefs not Sundowns you idiot” replied Jnr and indeed Rooi and Nkosinathi 'Big Nuz' Nhleko scored to give Chiefs a well deserved 3-0 victory. Ertugral left Newlands stadium in agony "These boyz are back now, nxx"

What makes me what I am today?

I grew up in a place dominated by Pirates fans. I saw many kids going to school with no lunch money, some with blue eyes. I saw a man burning down his house which was painted black and white. At the age of 6 my father, my hero took me and my mom out of that place to a place dominated by Sundowns fans. It looked pretty good and quiet. Clean streets with the only noise made by birds. Most people in that area were female. I asked where the male people were. Most men have died of heart related illnesses blamed on the Rothmans Cup. Most boys were in juvenile prisons blamed on the same Rothmans Cup. I asked myself what kind of a person do I want to be, a violent person or a person who won’t live to see 40? I realized that I have a choice. I can live a stress-free life, a happy life, a love and peaceful life, a Khosi life. I am a happy man today because of the smart choice I made at the age of 6. I am a Khosi for life.

Bafana team selection

Ever wondered how the Bafana team selection works?
Here is a recorded Pitso- Santana conversation:

Santana: “Siya-dumela, Pitso”
Pitso: “Dumela Santana, not siya-dumela. Eish, this fong-kong...”
Santana: “Me found ze problem to ze right wing solution”
Pitso: “Wa pota gape, who is the player?”
Santana: “Ze player, ze quick, ze skillful, ze passes superb”
Pitso: “Quick, skillful and superb passes? Who is the player?”
Santana: “Ze player ze name is Abia Nale, ze Kaizer Chiefs”
Pitso: “Oh…that one. Yah, he is good but he is not a South African, he is from Zimbabwe”
Santana: ”Nale ze Zimbabwe? Me thought him South African”
Pitso: “Sorry man he is not, but I know a player who plays like him. His name is Benson Mhlongo from Pirates”
Santana: ”Ok, you call Molongo...”
Pitso: “Ok Ranko, I will call him”
Santana: ”Ze pleasure. Ze leboga”

Now we know why Pirates have more players in Bafana than Chiefs
