Michele D'Angelo hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Free State Stars can pretend not to have heard.

Nobody could get near Lebogang Williams

Successful dribbles: 22. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Sifiso Zwane falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Williams Manyama sends Free State Stars past Chippa United

It finished 1‑0, and it was Williams Manyama’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Free State Stars.

Ninety minutes of Williams Manyama at his very best

Marked 8.29. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Free State Stars.

Match8 Aug 2026

Free State Stars run riot against Jomo Cosmos

4‑0, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Real Salt Lake join the queue for Andile Williams

Add another name to the list: Real Salt Lake have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Andile Williams. The answer from Free State Stars has not changed — yet.

So close: Khama Dolly’s move dies late

The fee was agreed and the flight was looked at — and then the phone stopped ringing. Polokwane City moved on, Khama Dolly reports back to Free State Stars, and everybody pretends Monday is just Monday.

Williams Zungu asks to leave Free State Stars

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Sifiso Zwane signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Sifiso Zwane commits to Free State Stars for another 4 years.

Graduation day at Free State Stars

4 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Andile Williams runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 20. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Rivaldo Mokotjo in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Free State Stars this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
