In years Pirates has never pulled such a collective and defense display. They have been working as individuals... I salute Jose for this organization. I see a structured Orlando Pirates. I loved this.

Mama Joy was caught between a rock and a hard place. Nna I refuse that deep down she doesn't support Orlando Pirates but Royal AM. There's no way you can stop loving a club you supported for 30+ years in less than a year. I bet she's celebrate when she get home...
