The club is capable of pulling in a big crowd at home. It is now up to the marketing team and the level of consistent entertainment the team will deliver.

Deon Hotto has been moved to a wing-back position.
The club’s 22-year-old Thabiso Monyane has returned as an exciting full-back on the right. Bandile Shandu has a fight on his hands.
Bucs fans were not so delighted to see Olisa Ndah start on the bench. The 24-year-old Nigerian central defender enjoyed ecstatic cheers as he ran on as a second-half substitute.

Meanwhile, the five-time PSL champions are now preparing to fly out to Cape Town.

The next battle is Stellenbosch FC on Wednesday night at the intimate Danie Craven Stadium from 19:30.
