He never said we dont have it he said we dont DESERVE it. But Angelo you are mistaken if you think FIFA cant and wont take away the world cup from us. But I am hoping just like you it doesnt happen so the rest of the world can see our crime "free" country

yea digital thats what i meant
just because we have it now does not mean we will have it in 2008 when inspections are done
personally i would put money on us not getting it
actually i wonder what odds a bookie would give me

The most important inspections have already been done which is why FIFA gave us the green light amongst many bidding countries.killadoob said:
For those who are Anti-SA your best hope is that the WC is not a success but IT WILL BE HELD HERE!

I actually got a mate in the UK to try and get me odds on WC2010 not being staged here. The 4 main bookies would not give odds. He even wrote to their
head offices.
However, they do give odds on Hitler being found in the Amazon. Read into that what you will.
I cant fathom there being a single person here that wouldnt want to see a successfully organised event being held but if the country in unable to produce a safe well planned world cup then fifa will have no choice but to pull it regardless of the little engine that could mentality.Angelo said:
Its too early to be forecasting what might happen but the time will soon come that the country falls under the spotlight and either passes muster or doesnt.

Update on one of the stadiums to be built

"Nelspruit - Two Mpumalanga schools will be bulldozed to make way for the 2010 Soccer World Cup stadium.
The John Mdluli primary and Cyril Clarke High School at Mataffin outside Nelspruit will be demolished so that a R450m stadium starts.
Provincial education spokesperson Hlahla Ngwenya said temporary mobile classrooms will be provided for the 1 280 pupils until new schools are built in the same area."

Great. Just what we need. More sport stadiums and less schools....
Unbelievable - temporary (for ever) mobile classrooms? One more sign in a long list how little this government cares for the people - 1280 pupils banished to temporary classrooms - no problem - let them learn under trees. Great world cup those kids will have. Profit and greed - is all that motivates these - and an attitude of uncaring.
Uhmm........besides getting considerebly more customers to buy their hawked products and getting jobs in the construction sector for WC infrastructre, can you explain how "the poorest people in shacks" are "going to pay for it"?PCW said:

Sadly i know personally many many 'South Africans' that want to see this country fail.
These 'South Africans' are just disgruntled people who haven't come to terms with the fact that there is no longer legislation that makes them first class citizens in the country and relegates the majority to spectators in the affairs of their own country.hj2k_x said:
No - we never cared for the legislation - and did everything to change it (ergo, the result, reality today.) And - we didn't want anybody to be spectators - which is exactly the situation this government has created today.Angelo said:
