Ajax Cape Town have concluded a deal with The City of Cape Town to secure the Cape Town Stadium for all their home games!!! It is said to be a 3 year contract and I for one am extremely happy about this announcement. Not only will it bring more local support to the stadium, but it will also help upkeep the area which has been reasonably quiet since the 2010 World Cup… They say goodbye to the Newlands aka The Graveyard, now it is up to us to decide on a new nickname, for this awesome new fortress? Any idea’s are welcome, please leave a comment!

MR Cape Town
I think I mentioned this before but ‘the Graveyard’ is the nickname given to Newlands by chiefs fans due to their horrible record there From Ajax’s early days
Why would any team call their own ground the graveyard
Please correct me if im wrong but this is what i thought
Haha I know Johnny it’s just what me and my mates used to call it so it has stuck for good! Dopping brandewyn on the train, running across the tracks like hooligans in the UK looting…The good old days 😉
