Rob Shepherd, the Daily Mail's Grapevine columnist, and our undercover Englishman THE MOLE on BOLLOCKZ!

The Dogz Bollockz! With Matthew Pattison and producer Comfort
Khezwa at the Ballz visual radio studios in Midrand this week

BIDVEST Wits midfielder Matthew Pattison, fresh from winning the Man of the Match award in this week's 1-0 win over AmaTuks, spent time in the BOLLOCKZ! studio at www.ballz.co.za this week.

Exclusive: The Mole in studio

Matt, who played 25 games for Newcastle United before moving to Norwich City, explained how he was born south of Johannesburg, moved to England as a youngster - and eventually returned to play for Mamelodi Sundowns in 2009.

An accomplished broadcast pundit as well as a top professional footballer and novice golfer (!), Pattison interacted with our two English football experts, underground reporter THE MOLE and the Daily Mail's Grapevine columnist Rob Shepherd, talking about Arsenal, Sir Bobby Robson and the European Champions League.






Matt helped us to invest charitable listener Leon Petzer's R1,500 with www.topodds.com too - see the video on their site or carry on watching below!

BOLLOCKZ to BOOING! Shakes Kungwane weighs in on the big Kaizer Chiefs debate PLUS Daily Mail Grapevine columnist Rob Shepherd on Ballz visual radio

Safe hands: Deshi
Bhaktawer in Ballz studio

KAIZER CHIEFS fan Zwee Maphala (www.twitter.com/mazweni7) stirred a hornet's nest on www.ballz.co.za this week when he volunteered to go live on BOLLOCKZ! to present the case that the AmaKhozi are RIGHT to boo players.

Zwee, a lifelong Chiefs fan, admits to crying and "kicking the coffee table" when his side loses, but his argument (concisely put on the video below) is that fans pay for their tickets and have a right to boo Kingston Nkhatha when he is not performing.

With Chiefs double-winning boss Stuart Baxter saying such fans are "childish" as he defended his Zimbabwean striker, Zwee bravely stuck to his guns, insisting: "How do we get the coach to listen to the fans? This is our way of getting his attention."





Former Kaizer Chiefs player and SuperSport football analyst Shakes Kungwane (www.twitter.com/shege10) disputed that, saying: "Under no circumstances should players boo their own players. It ruins the players' confidence. It's not on."

With former Orlando Pirates and SABC analyst Deshi Bhaktawer (www.twitter.com/deshibhaktawer) in the studio nodding in agreement, Shakes also came out in support of the Buccaneers' African Champions League campaign, with the first leg played at a sold-out Orlando Stadium tonight.





The www.dailymail.co.uk Grapevine columnist Rob Shepherd (www.twitter.com/robshepherd5) gave BOLLOCKZ! viewers and listeners the lowdown on the week's European action and interacted brilliantly with Deshi - even promising to give the African Champions League a mention in his column this week!

BOLLOCKZ ON BALLZ! Roger de Sa (Orlando Pirates), Rob Shepherd (Daily Mail) and Joe Crann (Soccer Laduma) videos are HERE!

Here's my interview with Roger de Sa on my www.ballz.co.za football show BOLLOCKZ! on Thursday, where Roger told me how his first-teamers are barely training at the moment given the number of games they are playing at the moment.

With today's Soweto Derby imminent, Roger also explain that Lucky Lekgwathi was playing in friendlies and available for the big game against Kaizer Chiefs. He said: "Lucky is probably a better footballer than Ayanda Gcaba but he is approaching 38. Gcaba is more athletic. It's about horses for courses."

I also spoke to Rob Shepherd, the English Daily Mail's "Grapevine" columnist about European football - he said Russia should not be allowed to host a World Cup given levels of racism suffered by Yaya Toure and Manchester City in Wednesday's 2-1 win at CSKA Moscow.

And he mentioned my once-impressive throw-ins!

My producer Comfort Kheswa and I also talked to Soccer Laduma's Joe Crann, who CONFIRMED Orlando Pirates AND Kaizer Chiefs will compete together in the African Champions League next season if the Buccaneers beat champions Al Ahly in the two-legged final on November 2 and 9.
