Swallows FC boss David Mogashoa has stirred some controversy with a tweet that suggests that PSL games are decided in the boardroom and not on the field.

Mogashoa took to Twitter on Sunday morning to condemn an incident that happened at Orlando Stadium where TS Galaxy president Tim Sukazi was denied entry into his team’s dressing room.
The incident came to light when Galaxy posted a video of the confrontation on their Twitter account. A number of people came out against that including AmaZulu boss Manzini Zungu.
“What happened to @SukaziTim at Orlando Stadium is embarrassing, unacceptable and should not be happening.
“@OfficialPSL must withdraw all our accreditations then we won’t bother you to stadiums!!,” Mogashoa first tweeted.
But he then followed up with the more controversial tweet: “Lo ukhuluma (this one talks) too much. Ba zomrelegator (They will relegate him/her). Okay ..! Let me watch F1.”
While Mogashoa didn’t say he was referring to Sukazi, it was generally understood to be about the Orlando Stadium incident. Former Phaaakathi reporter Njabulo Ngidi retweeted the controversial tweet and captioned it: “So people not the performance on the pitch relegate teams. Good to know.”
Others who replied said they didn’t expect such words from a chairman of a club.
