$520.0K — a new record at Bloemfontein Celtic

No footballer has ever cost this club more, and the number will be read out every time he misplaces a pass for the next two years.

Market31 Aug 2026

Kermit Ngcobo asks to leave Bloemfontein Celtic

“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.

4 matches without a win for Bloemfontein Celtic

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Bloemfontein Celtic are no longer polite ones.

Themba Mahlangu 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 Bloemfontein Celtic this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Bloemfontein Celtic spend $520.0K on the signing the town wanted

It is the rarest sequence in football: supporters ask for something, and the club goes and does it. $520.0K for Thabo Nkwana, and for one week nobody is complaining about anything.

Williams Jali 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.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Innocent Maphakisa gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Market31 Aug 2026

No place for Sifiso Vilakazi in the plan

“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Sifiso Vilakazi has his answer from Bloemfontein Celtic; what he does with it is the next window’s story.

Match29 Aug 2026

Point won or two lost for Bloemfontein Celtic?

Ninety minutes, no goals, and the argument started before the car park emptied: a point gained, or two thrown away against Mamelodi Sundowns? Both sides of it will still be going on Thursday.

Nobody could get near Themba Billiat

Successful dribbles: 36. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Bloemfontein Celtic say no — this time

The offer from Jomo Cosmos for Evidence Williams was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Tempers go at Bloemfontein Celtic

Bradley Grobler was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match15 Aug 2026

Themba Billiat’s goal not enough for Bloemfontein Celtic

Themba Billiat scored, and precious little else went right: 1‑2 to Bidvest Wits, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

Squad17 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Themba Billiat

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Themba Billiat, and the manager let it.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Too much change too quickly at Bloemfontein Celtic

6 signings in three months. Every one of them may be an upgrade and the team can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild that never appears in the transfer-window verdicts.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Bloemfontein Celtic pick somebody else ahead of Boikanyo Komane

There is no complaint available here and everybody involved knows it, which does not make the walk to the bench any shorter. Form is the only currency in football that cannot be borrowed against.

Bloemfontein Celtic bring in an old head

Joãozinho is 37 and has run out of things to prove. What he has left is where to stand, when to slow it down and what to say at half-time, and none of that is on a fitness chart.

Bloemfontein Celtic bring in an old head

Boikanyo Komane is 34 and has run out of things to prove. What he has left is where to stand, when to slow it down and what to say at half-time, and none of that is on a fitness chart.
