The metaphor for the bull that bellows is adapted from an iconic South African jazz song, “Yakhal’ inkomo”, composed by Makunku Ngozi in 1968 which grew to this day to become the signature tune that has embedded this African expression in this universal genre – hence it became the most recognisable jazz tune in the country. The ingenuity of our legendary saxo- phonist was most eloquently captured by our poet laureate, Dr Mongane Serote, in his intro- duction to his poetry collection, “Yakhal’ inkomo”, which was obviously inspired by this timeless musical piece and was published in 1972, as he mused: “I once saw Mankunku “Ex Africa semper aliquid Ngozi blowing his saxophone.

Starting from 2012, the year the Hall of Fame was established, the Club will organize the balloting and election of a number of hall-of-famers each year. Therefore, the A.S.

To enter the pool of candidates, players must meet the following two requirements: 1) have made at least one competitive or semi-competitive appearance with A.S. Roma (Italian national championships such as Divisione Nazionale, Serie A, Serie B; the so-called ‘World War II tournaments’; European/international competitions); 2) have retired at least two years previously.
