He re-ignited a sleeping giant by instilling a culture of professionalism into an otherwise popular brand and making the club intergral to its local community. There is a very large amount of community involvement in the club which has resulted in the club being one of the best supported in the country, drawing weekly crowds that put those of certain rich Gauteng clubs to shame.

What good is a team selling good players but cant equally restore a good squad from the revenues.Of course just like in any business..we try to minimize our expenses but its high time our clubs know how to manage their revenues in order not to leave a very big gap after the sale of good players.The clubs need money..to sustain them but need to remain competitive at the same time. We appeal to the soccer CEOs and managers to stop being greedy and start thinking on maintaining their clubs in the competition.It has been proven than good clubs are those with a good squad and a good proper management.
