  According to Wikipedia:

logo"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. " 
 

Ajax was " an early flush toilet invented in England in 1596".
