New Bucs coach Roger de Sa's first match on the bench for Orlando Pirates this weekend will edge him closer to 400 matches in charge of a Premier Soccer League club and reinforce his status as one of the more experienced coaches in the country.
If only he can stop his Arrogancy, he will go far at Pirates. He must stop swearing at officials and everybody, it is not good for the Beautiful game. Good luck on your mile stone, just be polite, you will one day reap the rewards Report Abuse

He's the best coach and very desciplined who does not beg any player and he always choose on merits, so I think he's right for Pirates. As a Pirates supporter I used to hate him for his actions when Wits beat Pirates but now I am 100% behind him and there'll be a big difference from the two games where Pirates lost 3-0 on both.
