South Africa 2010 - getting any better?

 
Well it has to get better...and it will.....although the last 25 minutes of Brazil v North Korea was fun.  Over to IBWM's in-house anger mangement consultant, Il Duce;
 
I'm thoroughly hacked-off at the moment, I feel like FIFA have let me down like a cheap pair of braces.  Having spent the last thirty-odd years watching the precise and meticulous game that is (apparently) beautiful - you know, the one before WC2010 where players were hitting the target on free-kicks, there were never any stray passes, and keepers were exceptional, making little if any mistakes.... 

However bring the game to SA with a new football and it’s all gone to buggery…  The ball has been replaced with a leather version of a Golden Snitch, fizzing about the place and making a fool out of the players - they've all turned into gibbering, clueless buffoons with the co-ordination of drunken foals.....* 

Why oh, why would they do this, can’t they remember that the same thing happened the last time they changed the ball in 2006???  Hmmmm......

*Obviously not helped by the locals sucking the air out the atmosphere with their vuvuzelas and replacing it with a high frequency 'hum' inhibiting the various national coaches of being able to even think football never mind manage it...

Comments welcome.
