Come on greece!

You've clearly got something against the African nations. I just hope they all do as well as they can even if it's just to annoy you.

Fully agree. The bloke's hit the nail on the head. Especially with this World Cup. I'm all for taking the tournament to all the continents but it's clear to see that South Africa isn't ready for this World Cup. The travel infrastructure is apparently very poor and the tickets seem to be too expensive for the locals. Is it Rustenburg that is a massive stadium in a village? I'm sure there's one in the tournament.

The whole point of taking this tournament to these places is to give the locals a chance to watch top class football in their own town while building to improve the future like the 2012 Olympics will hopefully do. With South Africa all that's going to be left is a series of overpriced stadiums that will very rarely be full.

Apparently the stadium in Port Elizabeth has no professional team to use it once the tournament is over. White elephant anyone?

I think that is right mate, there was a report by the BBC from there after England had played and they said it was a very small town that you wouldn't go there unless you had too basically. They were talking about the numbers of England fans and saying virtually every England fan who turned up had a ticket because there nothing else there unlike Cape Town of course where tomorrows game is.

Bloody Demichelis, what a moron!

Rubbish defender. Looks OK alongside Samuel, but watch how much Samuel covers for his inept partner. Samuel off injured - no cover - brain fart - goal. Simple.
