Bucs put Mabalane on transfer list

Dikgang Mabalane set to leave Orlando Pirates

Posted: 26 July 2012 Time: 12:15 pm

Orlando Pirates have placed Dikgang Mabalane on the transfer list, along with five other players.

The long-serving winger was linked with a move to Moroka Swallows last month before that fell through, and will seemingly now have to continue his search for a new team.

Also transfer listed are Lizo Mjempu, whose move to Chippa United fell through, as well as Niger midfielder Talatou Boubacar, who has hardly featured for Bucs since joining last year.

Njabulo Ntusi, Chiukepo Msowoya and Njabulo Manqana also find themselves on the list.

Players made available for loan include Hlabane Kutumela, Patrick Ngidi, Patrick Mashele, Benjamin Nthete, Thabo Rakhale and Aubrey Ngoma, who only just joined from University of Pretoria.

Pirates have also decided against exercising an option on Lucas Thwala’s contract, meaning the veteran defender is now a free agent.

It is always sad to leave the home of champions, however good luck to all the gentlemen of good fortune who fought tooth and nail for the champions to be where they are, u guys deserve a bells. I know some obscure members from our neighbours who are hell bent of derogatory comments will jump on the band wagon and call people names but thats always what happens to stupid monkeys and chimpanzees from the zebra farm, who have neva worn a treble even once in their lifetime. Hola the champions.

I am Bucs fan but I think its unfair to sign a player and loan him out or release him, Manqana should have been given a chance to prove himself.

I hate to say, it is sad to see The Terminator leaving but when one look at the age factor of the players he is competing with, then one will understand the reason for his transfer.

This boy has served us well and with discipline, he has achieved at Pirates and we wish him well.

If I was Bobby, i would jump at this boy because he by far better than all the wingers at Chiefs.

Truelly speaking i think we are wrong on the Terminator, he is the best crosser of the ball of all our right wingers just like Klate on the left. He was giving us a different dimension to our playing style. I remember the game we won 4-3 against Platinun, he was marvelous with his crosses.

I thought we would have Myeni and Sox as our hard running and forceful wingers and Terminator & Klate for crosses when teams park the bus like Zebras always do.

Wish Lucas good luck too.

Good luck to Terminator you served the team very well and wish u could stay ,Pirates need to release quite a number of players ,for me Manqana,Mashele and Ngoma should have been given a fair chance to prove their worth,why is Nyanda,Johannes,Mabena,and the hell lot not adding value missing on that list?.....they keep on signing and leave development players out.Where is Tokello Rantie Dr.K? we waiting.........
Nespray is a movie star look alike coach

leave my Mabena alone champ...he proved to be a galaxy even dis season...if de pirates management thinks he is worthy of being a bucs playa so be it....Champ, Mabena wants to prove moegoes frm chiembabwe coal mine rong n he needs ur supot

King....its my DTC champ....wen Mabalane came back frm injury...he scored against de Dube birds. he made many assists in terms of goals

but ur rite...we shuld stop moarning cos we replace quality wth quality....dis is wat hapens wen u only sign quality playas...
