Vuvuzela

[Alan]

What exactly does it mean then Alan?

It means they don't think it will run smoothly. Simple as that. Just because you don't think something will succeed doesn't mean you want it too fail. Seems you subscribe to the theory of ignorance is bliss. If you want something to succeed just ignore possible shortcomings.

How does this event of this magnitude compares to you and your friend's stupidity?

*facepalm*

Fine then we will have an European world cup in Africa. As you wish master...

Not a European World Cup. Just a World Cup with no damn irritating, unnecessary and un-AFRICAN horns blaring all game long

Are you from the Stone Age or something? Grow up..

No the vuvuzela age

If you think vuvuzelas are irritating, they invented this other mini vuvu that screams like a baby. That's what I call irritating.

So you haven't been to a the stadia in a long time, have you?
These new vuvus are so irritating they make vuvuzela bees sound feel like honey.

I have not experienced the small ones first hand, just the standard big old noisy ones.

Baby vuvus' have got to go. First time I heard that thing, I was like WTF?
Sounds distressingly like a baby being strangled to death

On the second thought, you must play that loud onto Xabi Alonso's ear....that should teach him some manners

I'm gonna play a special tune for him "you'll never walk alone".

I'm sure he would prefer walking alone than you walking with him playing that tune.

Yea, and the iraqis had little ones that bend straight up (90 degrees). That thing... grrr... shut up! Its a high pitched squeal!

sponsors are threatening

you mean Coca-Cola? the one that told FIFA to build a stadium in Green Point?
the one that uses the vuvuzela as part of their marketing campaign? those sponsors?

 

[capetownguy]

From the way I see it, FIFA won't ban the vuvusela, but SAFA will. There is simply too much pressure being applied. And it is not like South African soccer fans are going to die for the vuvusela either. To all intents and purposes, the vuvusela will be SUSPENDED by SAFA for the duration of the World Cup next year.

SAFA? who are they? they have no say.
FIFA world cup not SAFA world cup.

 

[capetownguy]

No. Local football makes up a tiny percentage of both.

I'm missing your point.
The Confed Cup is predominantly a local event with local spectators.
With the World Cup due to seating allocations its a mix of local and international.

 

[capetownguy]

Whether we are interested in the local game or not has no effect on our HATE for the vuvuzela.

Perhaps, but many have "discovered" the vuvuzela, i.e. locals and international viewers, and its hilarious that the locals are now making noise about it when its been annoying for a long already!

YES! ban it after 10 years because you've suddenly been exposed to it.
right.
