this issa hayatou is so arogant. he is totally out of line.

what was the reason for him to deliver the speach in french, the majority of people don't know frech, in fact it his speech was futile because because we didnt take it serious. we all know that english is a medium of instruction. why didn't he used english.

he is just a piece of paper that on top of a cow dung. wa ntena watseba. arogant

@Seja-Bana
what do you mean by "the majority of people dont know french"? It is my believe that the draw was not only televised in RSA but the entire continent and majority of people in the continent speaks french, arabic and kiswahili

I agree with you though that he should have tried to be more accommodative and gave her speech in english so as to allow us the non-french speaking people to understand the message he was passing, cos i also believe that those speaking french, arabic and kiswahili understands english, or maybe he should have brought an interpreter along

Honestly I only trust Gordon not the squad.Bafana is like Chiefs very unpredictable and can spoil your day while you are in good mood.Yes we must rally behind them and give all the support they need but lets not forget to put aside a space to accomodate disappointments if we happen to face such situation.

We can give these guys all the support we want fact still remains... this team is hopeless.
Forgive me but the current team would come last running alone and it doesn't help that half of the team are from the countries only paraolympic side in the PSL... CHIEFS!

Cape Verde is overrated, they will be embarrassed as Botswana was in AFCON 2012 despite being the most impressive in qualifiers.
