Itumeleng Khune tells KickOff.com he is proud to be a part of Kaizer Chiefs, the reigning Telkom Knockout champions. 

‘SpiderKid’ walked away with the Telkom Knockout goalkeeper of the tournament award today, along with a R100 000 cheque for his efforts. In fact, Amakhosi players swept across the board winning all four of the awards on offer from the goalkeeper to the striker’s award.   Khune has hailed the entire team. “I’m proud of myself and the team... I’m proud to be a part of this team,” he says. “I also salute the supporters for being behind us at all times,” he says.   In Khune’s absence during the quarterfinals match against Free State Stars in the Telkom Knockout Arthur Bartman kept a clean and the team finished the tournament without conceding a goal in the four games they played. The Bafana keeper feels Chiefs’ strong goalkeeping department is the reason behind his success.   “Yeah, it is. It is not easy for me and I wouldn’t like to tell myself that I’m the number one in the team. There is no time to relax. All the other goalkeepers are pushing me and I’m on my toes,” Khune adds.

Kaizer Chiefs should lay charges to whoever told kraal to play Otorogo in the TKO cup final
for bringing a team’s name into( Kaizer chiefs ) into disrepute.
Anyone who signed Municipality truck is mentally crippled.

Lol, this is just great, they can hate all they like but the truth is KAIZER CHIEFS ARE A CLASSY TEAM, WE ARE THE UNDISPUTED KINGS OF SOUTH AFRICAN CUP FOOTBALL, no other team comes close, their fluke MTN8 win made them believe they were on our level but we quickly brought them back to mother earth, the reality is, THEY ARE NOTHING BUT PRETENDERS, like someonoe once said, THEY are the OLDEST TEAM in the country while Chiefs are the BIGGEST team in Mzansi, khosi all day, everyday!!!!!!!

You I'm puzzled by some blind chimpanzees and their chairman when they say they made up to 70 percent of the stadium.two things which fooled them,the seats @ FNB are gold(whoever came with that colour for the stadium must be prosecuted) and even long before the game start some commmentators were already saying the stadium is jammed packed and just as I enter the stadium,I realised that there were so many empty seats. Secondly because we share some white jersey colour with them they always think its always them who are in the colour.I was in the stadium and Pirates supporters came in big numbers.so this people should stop lying to the whole by claiming that they were ruling in all fronts.

Ma chiefs stop boosting about being the Kings of SA football,oh yeah maybe,for some reason only known to you! Ha, I only know one team which is taken serious and which is in the Genius Book of Records,FIFA roll of honour,CAF club highest champs honour and that's Orlando Pirates and until these Chimps match or surpass our status then will we take them serious.For now its just empty talk.

"saying the stadium is jammed packed and just as I enter the stadium,I realised that there were so many empty seats" How do you listen to TV commentators saying that & the next minute you walking in the stadium witnessing empty seats. Do you live at the stadium?
