A video is doing the rounds on social media and causing controversy in South African football.

The video was shared by former Orlando Pirates' No. 1 fan, 'Mama Joy' Chauke, who switched allegiances to Royal AM.

In the clip, a frustrated Chauke alleged she was being denied entry into an old haunt of hers, the Orlando Stadium, where the Buccaneers were delayed in their run towards a runners-up finish by Thwihli Thwahla.

The accompanying tweet from Chauke explained she had been denied access to the stadium to watch the 1-1 draw.
