On Saturday, there was outrage when TS Galaxy FC president Tim Sukazi was denied access to the change-room at Orlando Stadium. Sukazi was also manhandled when he tried to access the field despite having the necessary accreditation that allows him to be on the field.
TS Galaxy FC, who lost the match by two goals to nil to the Buccaneers, were understandably not happy with the roughshod treatment meted out to their president.
This is the kind of treatment we are subjected to at Orlando Stadium. They don’t want to allow our President to access the field but he has an accreditation that allows him to be in the field.#Siyadumuza#TheRockets#TSG pic.twitter.com/W4U8eWaTRQ

The treatment of the TS Galaxy FC president comes a few months after Bafana Bafana boss Hugo Broos was not allowed to enter the Orlando Stadium for the match between Orlando Pirates and Mamelodi Sundowns. The South Africa Premier Soccer League (PSL) later apologized to the South African Football Association (SAFA) over the incident.
Orlando Pirates and the PSL have come under fire over the latest incident, with some questioning the leadership of Irvin Khoza. Khoza is the Chairman of Orlando Pirates Football Club, Chairman of the South African PSL, and by virtue of this, Vice-President of the South African Football Association.
Below are some of the reactions from social media to the manhandling of the TS Galaxy president:
Incredible!! Disgusting!!
Orlando Stadium!!

Hayi no, @orlandopirates this is totally unprofessional. Why are you committed to being a thuggish football club like this? First it was the national team coach and now it’s a chairman of a club being treated like this! This is disgusting! https://t.co/cdjiUK9dK4
