In light of an irate ABR and the De Villiers Saga,Its Thursday and time to open the floor. Im tired of saying my say about Perreira, De Villiers, Uncle Bai Gora. Azee and Seth and ZK have their views, ABR has his, I have mines.
I ask a simple question. Okes, readers, SAY YOUR SAY about South African Sports in General. I mean we have the cricket politics, rugby politics, soccer politics, selection problems, overpaid coaches, underpaid coaches, no money poured into development. I can go on and on......................
Just Say your Say. Now this is an entertaining topic so please no Imature, racist, and blasphemous comments please. Lets discuss this topic like gentleman and adults.
Once again so many unanswered questions and fears about 2010,Eskom, the Power Cuts.
Say YOUR f#4KEN SAY?
De Villiers wants final say on selection

taKilla : fair enough... you make some good points. The coach may have his hands tied a lil. We didn’t have a full strength team, but you expect a under 19 SA team to whip ZIMBABWE. What’s happening at the grass roots level??? Why isn’t school soccer as strong as our rugby??? We got more soccer players than rugby players!!!
ReplyDeleteI do agree that to "nationalize" SA soccer is not a feasible plan, but hey at least we know that government have taken their heads out of their asses, and are admitting that we might be the 1st host nation to get dumped out in the 1st round.
Swoosh : yes you have had your say many a time on YOUR website, but don’t you think its time we start making our voices heard in other forums. Have you got any suggestions?

That government concept is called "Nationalising" soccer..
ReplyDeleteThey wanna pull out 50 potential Bafana players and mould them by gettin specialist training and playing friendly matches regularly..
I think its a whole load of krap as friendlys dont provide big match temprament and doesnt have the feel of a competitave game..
Also u cant take 50 okes and deprive them of club football and then take just 22.. What happens to the other 28 guys in 2010 who will now have, NO club, NO competitave experience etc..
What do they do.. And concerning Perreira.. The politics in SA sport are still at boiling point.. As much as they hide it, he has NO say in team selection.. This i know from a VERY VERY reliable source who works for SAFA.. Also u dont blame the guy..
U okes said that Klinsmann and Van Basten cant be rated as good coaches as their teams in Wc2006 were SUPREME.. On the contrary we have a SUPREME coach with k@k at his disposal.. So i dont blame him..
In fairness to the ZIM results, players from Plat STars, Sundowns, Ajax and Bloem were not included due to club commitments as well as all overseas based players..
And for F*&^Ks sake.. Bring BENNI back.. We need him..
Cricket & Rugby - Is one political circus and a drive to get ppl with color in the team..
Transformation is good but should be KEPT OUT OF SPORT.. If theres someone betta than u, u dont deserve to be there.. SIMPLE
