Some people go to the extent to say Mr. Patrice Motsepe does not have business mind. How on earth do you discredit a business man like that? Mr. Motsepe has been in business years before he can be part of Sundowns. So why doubt his business abilities (or is just that le tella). Players need to be paid well for them to perform; Diski is a very short career. Some journalist claim and write about the salaries of players at Sundowns, contact are personal issues, where do they get such nonsense (from their so called reliable source from the Sundowns camp).
Our league can be a force if the chairmen of all clubs and Sponsors inject money into the teams. Orlando Pirates, Supersport United, Kaizer Chiefs, and other teams: pay well as well, but it is never on the front page of some (mampara paper). Why does this so-called reliable source only work hard when it comes to Bafana ba Style's issues, or what? Is the source effective only when it comes to Sundowns business or they are on the mission to bring someone down?
Journalist must be fair, work with other team that needs your attention. Tired of listen to analysts and journalists labeling Sundowns the "Big Spenders" and other sorts of names. Call them Mamelodi Sundowns, the Brazillians, or Bafana ba style, just like you (journalists and analysts) call Kaizer Chiefs, Amakhosi, glamour boys, the Phefeni boys, Orlando Pirates, Amabhakabhaka, what’s the different with Sundows. Stop favouritism as analysts you should know better. You're killing the spirit of the players. Eish nani owners pay you players.
The fan can say whatever but analyst on national TV saying things like this, hai maan lets stop that and concentrate on our business and play iDiski the way we know it. Let us all build the league to the higher level. Chairmen stop being stinchy, Pay your players.

I don't have a problem with Motsepe, and his big spending. It is good if it raises the standard.
I do however dslike the amount of players they have who sit on the bench and are wasted.
What happened to Lungisani Ndlela, Sandile Ndlovu, Elias Ngwepe, etc.
These guys showed huge character about 3, 4 years ago, but their development has suffered since joining sundowns.
Lungisnai Ndlela was great in the CONCACAF Gold Cup for Bafana in 2005. He needs game time.
Un augurio a tutta la squadra,sono felice del vostro successo ,forza ragazzi.Un saluto dall'Italia.Eugenio,ciao
Bejane, to be in a team is like being employed in any industry. If you do not perform you'll always be left on the sidelines and will continue doing the same meaningless job while high performers play an important role in shaping the direction of the organisation and of course your future. To say that some players are no longer a force they were since joining Sundowns is neither here nor there. If you have been following footbal (either on radio, TV or at a stadium) you will know that there have been a lot of players who were regarded as 'hot property' at their teams only to fail dismally after joining Chiefs / Pirates. It was a completely different work setting for them - expectations were high, competition was high - and only those with a strong will and a big heart survived. Not the faint hearted! You are talking about the number of players on the bench? Be serious chief! How many players did Pirates have last season? And the current season? What about chiefs? Who do you think those players that played the Charity cup dressed in gold and black play for? Orlando Chiefs or Telkom FC? Haai maan. Kindly do your research and the truth shall be revealed to you. It helps. Ask me.
Is it a case of P. Motsepe rocking the status quo that prevailed for many years with regards to clubs’ financial landscape and some of us are not comfortable with it? Go puke and ask Bob – The Dictator of the Sports Radio Airwaves – to clean it! I should not have responded to this myopic view but could not neglect my social obligations to educate souls like you.
The Pull-Him-Down Syndrome could as well be a very dangerous epidemic in African societies after HIV/AIDS and the sooner we regard it as such, the better for our development as a people.
Nito, thanks for having the guards to raise these issues. You have taken a bit off my work-load.
We need to pray for characters like Bejane so that they can see beyond team colours and as you put it, AMEN.
