About time. We have no Bafana Bafana now because of Jordaan and that cohort

Now I understand why Danny Jordan is a gate keeper at SAFA and he's protected by the ANC politicians.

Because cadres needed to eat and political parties needed additional funding for lavish parties

Welcome to south africa 🇿🇦 🎉

Why must everything in South Africa be paid by someone else.. Do they not have their own initiatives to generate funds..? What are the clubs doing to generate community involvement..? New South Africans begging for money from foreigners and the CEO's spending it all on their German vehicles.. Routine watering of pitches might keep them green, that's if Gauteng has water..

Sadly, as a country, SA keeps scoring own goals at an alarming rate... 😢

south africans as much as we love our country we have to agree that our country has gone to the dogs and its a point of no return......... what we need is people who are first going to vote out the ruling party which is failing us as citizens first then we can move on to other structures that make up our country..

Just look at where Korea & Japan are in the world game today. They have players in the biggest leagues in the world, and the springboard was the 2002 World Cup. Danny Jordan and his gang of incompetents have failed the country. Maybe Cupcake should order another Commission of Inquiry

And then they hired Fereira and gave him a multi million contract of which he chowed the money and resigned and asked for his cousin to take over from him, and he came back again when it was world cup time, SA is circus I tell you.

They dont understand that growing the football economy wouldve made them more money if they actually supported it and let it grow. Look at Spain, Look at England!!! Oh man oh man we couldve had jobs, opportunies in a field that everyone loves meaning most people would go to it.

The mere fact that Banks don't do Investigations into this is just alarming but me who couldn't afford a Chomp was Charged a fee because it declined, The Banks are to blame here aswell of you ask me

What people dont understand is that FIFA itself is also corrupt

My HomeTown.

Is this really so surprising? People with no real talent are managing these sports bodies like their own little chiefdoms. The only real surprise is that these sport bodies haven't gone completely bankrupt and disappeared from existence.

I agree with Ria Ledwaba, however she's equally part of the rot in SA football

But if we have a deployed cadre, Danny Jordan, do we expect anything different from failed municipalities down to failed SOEs run by these Comtsotsis?

As you thought, it was worse… it gets worser. We need to evaluate ourselves as people. What are stealing all that money for?

The minute you have political party politics inside institutions, the end results are a disaster. SAFAs problems started the minute politicians like Jordan & many others started getting involved, SAFA is supposed to be run by former sports personal and academic proffesionals.
