- Did attendance get affected
- What does average viewership per team look like

Sentiment on social media and other platforms has been roundly negative and particularly scathing of the coaches Mandla Ncikazi and Fadlu Davids. One of the clubs biggest and longest-serving fans, Mama Joy, even left the club to go and support league debutants, Royal AM.

According to a Nielsen Sports SA 2020 research survey of domestic football fans, Orlando Pirates is still the second most supported team in the country and also ranks highly among fans second favorite teams to support.
