Football Stage

My Plea to South African Football Fans As our U17 National Team gets ready to play their first game of the 2026 U17 Africa Cup Nations, I plead with you not to watch or analyze them through the lens of senior football, they are kids who are still developing and this tournament is part of their development so please don’t expect them to be perfect. Some of them will be playing international football for the first time so there will be nerves and they will make mistakes, please be kind to them. I’m not saying they must not be criticized but let it be constructive criticism in a manner that seeks to encourage rather than to destroy. Thank You 🙏🏾

Selaelo Rasebotja - Orlando Pirates

Dear Sir James Mabena As we close the 2025/26 Season I would like to give you a short report regarding some of the talents that were natured under your leadership and guidance. At Orlando Pirates I can report that Relebohile Mofokeng, Cemran Dansin and Boitumelo Radiopane have won the MTN8, Carling Knockout Cup and the Betway Premiership. Sir Mabena I can also put my head on the block and say Relebohile Mofokeng is heading to the 2026 FIFA World Cup. In the Orlando Pirates reserve team I can report that Jabulani Mokone and Moses Mphekgoane are Dstv Diski Challenge champions. In addition to winning the league, Moses has also completed his BComm Degree at Wits University. At Mamelodi Sundowns I can report that Aubrey Modiba, Kutlwano Letlhaku and Siyabonga Mabena have conquered the holy grail of African Football, the CAF Champions League. I can also report that Onele Rulwana at Durban City is a Nedbank Cup Champion. As you go about your day in Football Heaven I hope this report will put a smile on your face and make you proud of your work, the achievements of these boys and the work that your disciples Mojalefa Mathebula, Masimanyane Xali, Lazarus Kgosana, Gavin Silango, Christopher Mkwando and many others you have mentored at the SAFA-Transnet School of Excellence continue to do within our football fraternity. Regards Football Stage

@Football__Stage A lovely tribute to Mr Mabena 🙌🏾

Coach Mandla Qhogi [CAF A] was appointed as the Head Coach of Eswatini Premier League team Nsingizini Hotspurs FC on the 1st of June 2025. The former Orlando Pirates DDC and Milford coach assembled a strong technical team and a strong squad, then went on to complete the treble. - 8 Bet Trade Fair Cup 🏆 - Ingwenyama Cup 🏆 - MTN Premier League 🏆 - Prince Mangosuthu Legacy Cup 🏆 What Coach Mandla has achieved in his first season at Nsingizini Hotspurs FC is phenomenal, the man has made history in Eswatini. Congratulations my brother @Mindlooooo7 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

What you have done for South African Football will never be forgotten ❤️

I knew the scenes will be crazy at Queenswood last night 🤣
