Yesterday saw Julius Malema in good spirits, and I imagine it will be much of the same today after the charges against him were struck from the roll.
The problem with telling so many lies for so long is that eventually where they end and the truth begins. It looks like JZ has been caught in a whopper with this one.
It’s amazing how deep some people can dig in order to avoid being locked up. Take for example FIFA’s Jeffrey Webb who pulled a few rabbits out of the hat with this one.
Congrats on making it through Monday. As a reward you now get to watch a visibly riled Sepp Blatter fall victim to a prank at his press conference in Zurich.
The 2010 World Cup ship is well and truly sinking and whilst Fikile and company hang on for dear life, others are inflating the lifeboats. Tokyo first, women and children next.
You’ll generally find most convicted criminals on medical parole prefer to keep a low profile. Not Schabir, however, who today unleashed a verbal attack on an unsuspecting journalist.
As the wheels come off the FIFA machine they have taken the drastic step of suspending the bidding process to host the 2026 tournament. I thought Qatar were going to buy that one as well?
It doesn’t matter whether you think football is nothing more than a silly game, you see, there is something larger here that should anger each and every South African.
This afternoon’s press conference saw Minister of Sport and Recreation Fikile Mbalula stick to his guns and condemn the allegations of corruption during the 2010 World Cup bid.
I adore Gareth Cliff and his strong opinions. They’re usually the truth and are well backed up with facts. Much like this one, which has started a little Twitter war.
As Sepp flees for safety let’s take a stroll down memory lane and relive some of his finer and more poignant moments. What’s that you say about women’s football Sepp?
Football fans around the world breathed a collective sigh of relief yesterday as Sepp Blatter abandoned ship and resigned as president of FIFA. You’re not getting away that easily.
Yes, this is pretty much the proof we’ve all been waiting for – the explosive piece of evidence that lays bare our corrupt 2010 World Cup bid.
As South African officials clamour to deny any wrongdoing during the 2010 World Cup bid it seems cracks are beginning to appear. First to break ranks was Danny Jordaan.
Whilst the indictment served by the US is yet to name exactly which South African officials were dishing out bribes, we may be closer to the truth.
Of all the countries in the world why is it that the US is coming at FIFA the hardest? There couldn’t be some kind of ulterior motive could there?
He has a reputation for being somewhat outspoken, and Fikile Mbalula did not disappoint during his stone-cold denial of the allegations against South Africa’s 2010 World Cup bid.
Piers had the knives well and truly sharpened yesterday when he unleashed an insult-laden attack on FIFA’s top dog. Tell us what you really think Piers.
In what should come as a shock to absolutely nobody who follows football, corrupt Fifa officials are finally feeling the long arm of the law. Next stop, Sepp Blatter.
It seems the man who blew the whistle on alleged EFF misuse of funds fears Juju is after him. Not the kind of guy you want to make enemies with, right?
Some sneaking around by a few shrewd journalists has revealed a whole chunk of change invested in Switzerland by our fellow Saffas. Nothing wrong with that, but dig a little deeper.
Get ready South Africa, we could have a few extra visitors over the coming months. Fancy some Boko Haram in your neighbourhood?
It looks increasingly likely that Robert Mugabe will be appointed chairman of the African Union. Say what now?
Unless your head is buried in the sand you will be aware that we have some sticky fingers at work in South Africa. These latest figures, however, will make you rather queasy.
Jackie Selebi has died aged 64, with his death being confirmed by the ANC.
With Oscar in prison and a multitude of claims towards his family (remember those rhino horns?), it seems these guys just cannot fathom staying out of the news.
We’re not surprised when it happens, but it isn’t all that often you see a police officer caught in the act of soliciting a bribe. Here is the video of Joburg’s police exercising some sticky fingers.
Haha, Zuma, you never cease to amaze me. Have a squizz at how The President thinks he is above the rest of the world and South African law.
Helen Zille and Jacob Zuma have finally come to an agreement by order of the court – and it is in favour of the DA. Helen will be dining on caviar and champers tonight…
Our country stands to head in a backwards direction because of our sub-standard availability of education
