Township Rollers is the most decorated, most recognisable football brand in Botswana and arguably the most supported and most talked about football team in Botswana. To some, it is more than a football team, but an institution. Some have even joked that we are all born as Township Rollers supporters, but we change allegiances along the way as we grow.

At first no one was willing to give up an inch and others were already writing Township Rollers obituary. Rival team’s supporters were ululating. Who would blame them for celebrating the disintegration and strife in the arch enemy’s camp? Staunch football people on the other hand knew what a possible disintegration of Township Rollers would mean for Botswana football and did not wish for the worst.
