'North Africans sabotaging Motsepe'

In this edition of Supporters Forum, Orlando Pirates prominent supporter Jwara-Bucs, applauds the club's fans for not retaliating against the MC Alger players and officials at Orlando Stadium.

Chaos erupted at the stadium after the final whistle when the Algerian side's players and technical team attacked both the Pirates players and the refereeing team.

Jwara-Bucs believes this was done on purpose by the North Africans as they want to sabotage South African-born Patrice Motsepe's role as CAF president.

"There is someone behind the scenes in the North African countries who wants to sabotage our South African born CAF president, Dr. Patrice Motsepe," Jwara-Bucs tells KickOff.

"We'ven these incidents in both the Confederations Cup and Champions League matches that were played in South Africa.

"They happened at Loftus, they happened in Cape Town, and yesterday the mission was taken to Orlando Stadium.

"This shows that when our clubs are playing away from home the treatment they get is not nice at all. The North African countries they take black people for granted, they are full of racism.

"These are things we don't want to see in football, football is for fun. Football got rules. If you are not happy with something you have a right to appeal.

"As coaches and players you have to do the fighting with your feet, and not involve the supporters in your dirty tricks. Thousands of innocent people may lose their lives in a stampede because of your greediness.

"As the South African football supporters nationally, we want this to be stopped with immediate effect, because we still have to host two Egyptian teams right here at home in the semi finals.

"We want to see a unite Africa enjoying the game of football. Let's celebrate being African than starting unnecessary war.

"I thank the loyal Orlando Pirates supporters for not getting involved in what happened yesterday. We played it smart."
