Crying babies, had they beat Chiefs, they wouldn complain but now that they can see that the Pirates Premiership is heading back to Orlando, they are getting angry. The coach was aslo complaining about the fixtures yesterday. From the start of the league they have been very happy with the fixtures, y now? koba Motsepe koba!!!!!!!!Thats what will happen if Neeskens does not win the league..............

Agg Come Sundowns, ke eng manje, you are even sure if you will get there come Saturday. Phela this is the neutral venue given the fact that FNB cannot be used for the final since both clubs who can fill it up are no longer there & it will be empty so Orlando is okay as even if it wont be a sold out affair, it wont be that Bad

Dear Sundowns

Sorry Downs, your anger is misplaced. You were beaten by our neighbour who, by the way, plays at Soccer City not Orlando Stadium. So your objection should be directed at Soccer City not Orlando. We do understand your frustrations and wish you all the best in your future endeavours. We also hope that you manage to avoid Khompela's knobkierrie, lest you suffer a serious concussion and miss the Nedbank final at Orlando.

Yours in Championship contention;
Pirates

The finals should be decided by the finalist, by the use of a coin, like they do before the game.

They have told the league that should they reach the final, they would seek to play Tshwane rivals SuperSport United at Atteridgeville or AmaZulu at Mbombela Stadium in Nelspruit.
=======================================================

I am against the decisions of Sundowns,but given the above statement,I am likely to support them coz we also need games of this degree at Mbombela.But they must suggest Mbombela for the clash against either of the two teams(Amazulu/Supersport)!

Viva Mbombela Viva!

Can I hear Amen from the people of Nelspruit?!!!!
