The office phone at Chloorkop (Mamelodi Sundowns headquarters) rings.

One of the players, Surprise Moriri, pictured, picks up the receiver and says: "What kind of an idiot is it that dares to phone in the middle of our lunch break?"

The caller shouts back: "Do you know who you are talking to? I am the president of this club!" (it was Patrice Motsepe).

Moriri replies: "Do you have any idea who you are talking to?"

Perplexed, the president mumbles: "No!"

The player heaves a sigh of relief and says: "Thank God for that!" and hangs up.
