The move also seems to have boosted the club’s fortunes.

With a population of more than 426000, Seshego which is 8km west of Limpopo’s capital Polokwane, is the province’s biggest township.

Street vendor Maria Boshomane, 36, a mother of two welcomed the revamp.

“In fact I don’t even understand what’s happening in the field of play but one thing for sure, every time whenever there is a match, I always go home smiling with a huge amount of cash to put food of the table for days from selling food,” Boshomane, who sells food outside the stadium told Sunday World.

Another vendor, Kwena Moloto who sells sport regalia such as caps, jerseys, vuvuzelas and flags of different clubs was very thankful to Magesi for bringing some of their games to Seshego.
