    Shocking that Heskey is in the squad. Barely Premier League quality, let alone England quality.

    Would rather see Walcott in the squad than Lennon. Also, is a little too defensive for me, would rather see either King or Upson out for another striker.

    Well..... That looks like Rio is out of the 1st game..... At least !

    As if we didn't have a big enough gap in defence with him playing alongside a cripple !!

    Well...... It looks like the world cup has finally arrived in SA!

    You can choose whichever media you want to believe.. Tv, radio, interweb...... I prefere to believe my own reporter on the ground ....... My sister!

    Up until now, the build up has been very low key in SA, football is a black sport whereas the whites only deal in rugby & cricket. But now the teams are arriving, the atmosphere is fantastic. & that coming from my sis who doesn't even know what a football is !!
    she is across the road from the brazillion squad base, & the training ground is the local school. She has decked her car with both England & SA flags& reckons there isn't a car out there without a flag of some sort! Last week, there was nothing??

    Yep..... Even Val is getting excited, & says the party atmosphere around town is like she has never seen before. I so wish I was there.

    My parents and friends say that the country is "absolut voetbal befok!" ("absolutely football crazy") at the moment.

    South Africa 1 - 0 Denmark

    That means that South Africa are unbeaten in their past 11 matches. So far they are happily defying my somewhat dire predictions... Tournament has still got to kick off though but the form demonstrated so far seems promising.
