Match

The wait goes on for Ajax Cape Town

5 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Squad

Luke Baartman 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 Ajax Cape Town this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

Ajax Cape Town leaking at the back

5 matches, two or more conceded in every one of them. Sides that create as much as this can live with it for a while. Nobody lives with it forever.

Match

Polokwane City take the points off Ajax Cape Town

Beaten 1‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Evidence Billiat

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Khama Hlatshwayo

Successful dribbles: 18. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Luther Ngcobo breaks a bone — 59 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 59 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Thamsanqa Mokoena

Successful dribbles: 35. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Market

Hlompho Ngcobo 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 Ajax Cape Town can pretend not to have heard.

Market

Ajax Cape Town turn down SuperSport United for Sifiso Mahlangu

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad

Khama Hlatshwayo 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 Ajax Cape Town this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market

SuperSport United watching Themba Mokotjo

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Ajax Cape Town have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Match

Erick Modiba sends Ajax Cape Town past University of Pretoria

It finished 1‑0, and it was Erick Modiba’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Ajax Cape Town.

Squad

Thami Mkhize 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.

Player ratings

Erick Modiba takes the honours

Marked 7.89 on an afternoon he ran from the first whistle to the last. Whatever else went wrong, Ajax Cape Town had the best player on the pitch.

Market

Ajax Cape Town say no — this time

The offer from Orlando Pirates for Luther Ngcobo 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.

Player ratings

Thamsanqa Mokoena could not have asked for more on his first appearance — 7.40

Debuts are survived rather than enjoyed. This one was enjoyed: 7.40, 0 goals, and a manager already being asked whether he starts again next week.

Squad

Luke Baartman gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Luke Baartman has just signed for Ajax Cape Town, and for once the answer mattered.

Market

Thamsanqa Vilakazi attracts admirers

The name of Thamsanqa Vilakazi has come up in conversations Ajax Cape Town were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Squad

Luther Billiat signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Luther Billiat commits to Ajax Cape Town for another 5 years.

Squad

Luther Ngcobo 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 Ajax Cape Town this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Boardroom

5 academy players handed senior numbers at Ajax Cape Town

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Market

One of our own: Lebogang Dala joins the Ajax Cape Town first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Lebogang Dala is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Market

One of our own: Teboho Manyama joins the Ajax Cape Town first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Teboho Manyama is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.
