The story

Chiefs official Bobby Motaung went viral over the weekend after sharing his thoughts on Pirates' announcement that Jose Riveiro will depart when his contract ends at the season's close.

Bobby believes Riveiro's exit will send Pirates back into a rebuilding phase under a new coach, a situation he feels has negatively impacted Chiefs since Baxter left after securing the league title in 2015.

Motaung added that Chiefs are done with starting over, re-emphasizing why the Glamour Boys will stick with Nasreddine Nabi, despite the Tunisian's struggles to consistently get positive results in his first season as head coach.
