According to Wikipedia:
 "Amsterdamsche Football Club Ajax (Euronext: AJAX) also referred to as Ajax Amsterdam, AFC Ajax, or simply Ajax (pronounced Ah-yahx), is a football club from Amsterdam, Netherlands."
" Ajax originally played in an all black uniform with a red sash tied
around the players' waists, but that uniform was soon replaced by a
red/white striped shirt and black shorts. Red, black and white are the
three colors of the flag of Amsterdam. "
"Blind was sacked on May 10, 2006 after only 422 days in charge."
"O'Brien attended Brentwood High School,
had his first trial with Ajax at the age of 14 and signed an amateur
contract with the Dutch giants in 1994 as a 17-year old. After two
years on their youth teams, Ajax offered O'Brien a professional
contract in 1998."
"Ajax dominated European club football during the early 1970's by winning the European Cup in 1971 with coach Rinus Michels, in 1972 and 1973 with coach Stefan Kovacs. Their most famous players where then Johan Cruijff, Piet Keizer, Sjaak Swart and Johan Neeskens.

“Look, in the last five or six years, football has developed a lot in
terms of speed, pressing, and the systems people use. Every coach talks
about playing attractive football but it depends on the players you
have at your disposal."

A great interview with Rijkaard |

Rijkaard said recently that his approach to the game was a blend of
Ajax and Milan, styles that he characterised as a balance between the
“playful” and the “serious”. When I ask him to elaborate, he reverses
the roles. “Ajax was a very serious club, it was a tough club. It was
very direct, lots of insults. That’s how people are in Amsterdam — they
say what they think to your face. Milan was calmer and there was more
respect between the players. But the concept at both clubs was the
same: play to win.”
