Devoted fans are the heartbeat of sport—the ones who travel, sing, and stand by their teams through every high and low. But how are these passionate supporters recognised and supported? Listen in to Mpho and Jones as they unpack the conversation sparked by an exchange between Mama Joy and Sports Minister Gayton McKenzie—raising important questions about the role, responsibility, and recognition of super fans in South African sport. With global examples showing more structured support for fan communities, where does South Africa stand? And what do the fans themselves think? We hear directly from Lady D, a proud Orlando Pirates supporter, as she shares her perspective on passion, loyalty, and what it truly means to be a superfan.
