Comments on: Joel Santana’s Bafana Bomb http://www.wonkie.com/2009/10/19/joel-santanas-bafana-bafana/ Cartoon Blog on Politics, Economics and wonky Life in general Wed, 08 Feb 2012 08:22:34 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Michael http://www.wonkie.com/2009/10/19/joel-santanas-bafana-bafana/#comment-5642 Michael Wed, 17 Mar 2010 10:44:46 +0000 http://www.wonkie.com/2009/10/19/joel-santanas-bafana-bafana/#comment-5642 Joel is a good coach, finish and klaar. The players have their own hang-ups. They may be good for South African football, but otherwise zilch for anything else. Look at the game yesterday ( Chelsea v. Inter) than you will know what I am talking about. Santana was given chopsticks to eat soup, thats how bad it is. Local is lekker for SA sport only, but this is a national squad for heavens sake. It does not play local. SAFA will have to invest its money on development of high standard of football in its totality ( coaches, referees, players, admin. etc.). You cannot win games playing SA football outside of our borders. It is time we woke up and grew up. Joel is a good coach, finish and klaar. The players have their own hang-ups.

Anybody surprised???Is'nt that what is happening on a daily basis in every area in South Africa? However, with the 2010 World Cup they shot themselves in the foot. The real SA will be unveiled. Soccer and all. Like with everything that the ANC cadres are touching, the SA soccer has gone down the drain.

Overses' coaches do not know our local cream of crop. Those millions should be used to develop local talent........

There many talented coaches here in south africa, who knows our players very well and who also know the african football style, instead of brazilian style.Because this is another major problem that is killing us in our bafana squad, because those foreign coaches like santana, they teach our players brazilian football, and they are not used to that style.So santana is not the right man ffor the job and after him they should have appointed a local coach such as gavin hunt, or any local coach instead of parreira, those coaches they cost us millions without any success.

But then again, JZ have the Shaik-shake's to make sure he knows how to handle his household budget...remember, JZ surely still gets commission every time somebody has to renew his driver's license every 5 years! ( the contract for that still belongs to Nkolbe Holdings ) Lexman,

In what universe does the 80 something ranked team end up beating some of the best teams in the world more than once or twice? At least a foreign coach won't cost an arm and a leg, and the upset fans (and they will be) can throw eggs at his house for years to come.

I bet he is now smiling, coz if you count all the millions he made, damn he is FILTHY RICHER THAN OUR PRESIDENT!!!
