Damn, Wits is gone. It's a sad day for football in South Africa with the announcement that #BidvestWits, a 99 year old club, has been sold to #TTM

Here's a thread on the history of the club
Wits University was formed in 1921 by the university's Students Representatives Council. The club competed in a variety of tournaments and leagues before eventually winning promotion to the National Football League in 1975
Wits won their first major title in 1978 – winning the Mainstay Cup after beating Kaizer Chiefs in the final of the competition. Six years later they picked up the BP Top 8, and a year later in 1985 they again beat Chiefs, this time in the final of the JPS Knockout Cup.
