"How is it that @SAFA_net have so much time on their hands to respond to a human being like @LucasRadebe merely expressing his desire to be President of the Association!!
"After an entire statement like this, you tell us in your final paragraph that: 'The point we are making is that we are busy with football, and we will not entertain trivial distractions.' But you've just "entertained trivial distractions" by responding!"

"SAFA leadership and integrity in the same line? This organisation has ANC DNA."

"We know who ordered the letter."

"Part of SAFA's policy is to respond to former players, especially the Captain, if they didn't respond or just kept quiet, there would be an uproar in the country with people calling for Danny to resign."
