There are words to describe those members of the FIFA delegation who did not vote for South Africa. Words which I cannot mention because of cencorship.

here is a part of an article i got www.iol.co.za

-----------------------------
Johannesburg - A letter allegedly from the German soccer World Cup bid committee to Fifa vice-president Jack Warner surfaced on Friday amid allegations that the Germans offered money and gifts to Fifa delegates in exchange for their support.

This is the full text of the letter:

CONVEY IMMEDIATELY

To Mr Warner

In this difficult situation, Mr (Franz) Beckenbauer (President of German Bid Committee) and I would like to emphasis the urgency of our appeal to hold the world cup 2006 in Germany.

Let me come straight to the point: in appreciation of your support we would like to offer you a small gift for your vote in favour of Germany.

Please do not hesitate to contact me immediately should you have any specific requests.

We trust in the wisdom of your decision tomorrow (Thursday). I look forward to speaking with you.

Sincerely Yours

Martin Hansen

Secretary of the TDES (WC 2006 INITIATIVE)

This letter was issued in Frankfurt Germany on Wednesday at 11pm.

I am totally and utterly annoyed with this FIFA vote, totaly against South Africa. Europes 10th worldcup, Africa has never hosted a world cup except USA, Is this truly fair as the yanks hate Football? This would have of made more jobs and brought money pouring into the economy. But oh no Germany had to have their secound worldcup with alledged corruption and Bribary!

The Drakensburg Mountains are great for hiking and skiing! I wonder if there are any chalets available.

I tend to forget about stuff like that because i stay in a sub-tropical part of SA.

I am really disappointed about Soccer 2006.
I suppose i will just have to accept the result.

cheers
