In our weekly revolving fan column, this week we hear from Diana "Lady D Bucs Diva" Matli from Legae la batho, Polokwane in Limpopo.
I am a Loving person, humble, vibrant, talkative, powerful
Iron Lady, a resilient Die hard Orlando Pirates supporter & I Love Sport.
2. When did you start
supporting Orlando Pirates?
I was born a Buccaneer. I started to support and follow my
team from as young as i can remember.
3. Who is your favorite player at the club, in current squad and of all time?
In the current squad is Mpho Makola and the all time
is 'Legs of thunder' Jerry Sikhosana
4. What's been your
best and your worst Orlando Pirates match you've watched?
The best match I have ever watched was when we came from
behind from the 70th minute & beat Al Ahly 4-3 to advance to the CAF
Confederations Cup final in 2015… Memorable moments.
The worst match I ever watched was losing in the CAF finals
for the 2nd time & this time to Etoile du Sahel of Tunisia in 2015 Nov the
29th. It was a painful moment.
5. What's the best
place to watch the team and why?
The only best place to watch the team is at the stadium
because we sing, dance and cheer our players & to meet lovely n friendly
Pirates supporters.
6. How many Orlando
Pirates replicas do you own?
I own 23 and counting because each season I buy home and
away jersey.
7. Are you happy with
the players' commitment to the team?
Yes. They are doing their utmost best to make the supporters
happy.
8. What changes would
you like to see in the club?
The change I would like to see is a new technical team that
will bring new tactical ideas to the club.
9. Which areas do you
think urgently needs reinforcements?
Our defense in the team needs reinforcement. The legs of
Rooi Mahamutsa & Siya Sangweni are ageing. We need fresh legs.
10. Where do you see
Orlando Pirates finish on the log at the end of the season?
They will finish in the top 4, preferably position 2 so that
we can qualify to play CAF again.
11. What message
would you like to send to the team?
My message to the team is, perseverance is the mother of
success. They can do more with team spirit. Nothing is impossible.
12. What message
would you like to send to the fans?
Let us support the boys, the coach & his technical team
in good and in bad times. Let’s STOP insulting our players and calling them
names. To be a buccaneer is a calling.
