  • Mokwena paying refs!

    I don’t think it has something to do with Patrice Motsepe, the suspect is Rhulani with his Mickey Mouse tactics of comparing himself with Pep Guardiola. He is paying the referees himself you can see the way he treats them during the games – Joseph MoloiSuspend Abongile Tom…When are they going to suspend Abongile Tom; because these two are the same – Qhawe LaseMbo NguneziTo be on a yellow card doesn’t mean next is red

    To be on the yellow card doesn’t mean another foul will automatically become a red card, no. You can still be given a verbal warning and be reminded that you already have a yellow card, we used to see such things in football – Emmanuel SekgobelaAnd what about the Ref who didn’t give Mabasa a card?And the referee who didn’t give Tshegofatso Mabasa a card against Richard’s Bay, what happened to him? – Real S MaticWhen Mhango offside goals were allowed…When he allowed two Gabadinho Mhango offside goals, there was no problem. But now because it was the linesman who injured himself and could not proceed with the game and failed to give the correct call, suddenly Jelly must shoulder the blame? This has nothing to do with that game! – Fiwa MaphuthaFishy dealings in Mzansi football?This is killing South African football, it shows that something is fishy in Mzansi football – Kobamelo MothankaDemote ChavaniThey should demote him to the lower division along with most of the referees we’ve had this season. They have to go through intense training during the off-season. They were terrible and affected a lot of results – Sisamkele Sir’Charles TinganiOut of 72 points, 60 from refs?Out of those 72 points gained, 60 are from these referees who were bribed – Andile Mabheka SomnisoDowns benefitting like Chiefs?

    It is Sundowns’ time to enjoy benefits like Kaizer Chiefs during their winning days. Who knows, maybe in a few years to come it will be Orlando Pirates. We live to share, right? – Thami Radebe
