Word Cup South Africa 2010

Am I the only person in the world who is already sick of the slobbering and drooling over South Africa?

When the World Cup is held anywhere else the host country isn't treated like the most spoilt little bastard in the neighbourhood. So South Africa suffered apartheid for years and is now a democracy, with all the associated problems, surely it's time we stopped patronising them and treated them like any other country. What is interesting is that South Africa is the first African country considered fit to host the world's biggest sporting occasion, despite its recent history.

On BBC radio this morning the oh so politically correct reporters have been drooling about how the people of Soweto are the most fanatical football supporters in the world. Are they really? And how South Africans are the best singers in the world. They haven't heard Chico's World Cup song! In fact South Africa is truly Heaven on Earth. In fact Heaven is shit by comparison.

They've been drooling about the wonderous Vuvuzelas of the South African fans. I thought these must be some ancient mystical charm that would ensure South African victory, but the really annoying horns in the background were driving me to distraction. Sorry, they weren't just annoying horns, they were the bloody Vuvezelas as modelled by the Elton John tribute artist above. If they are going to be blaring through every game I'll be watching with the sound off, they're worse than that bloody band that follows England around.

Then up pops Jeremy Hardy on Twitter to make the following statement:

"I hate the World Cup. The whole of England is decked out like a Loyalist estate".

Really Jeremy? Only if you're a brain dead Marxist bastard who should have been shot at birth. But then again, the politically correct despise ther own but worship all things foreign, like South Africa. Blind, obsessive love of any country in Africa or Asia is fine, but a show of patriotic fervour about a sporting event has you likened to a gun wielding religious bigot who is a danger to the world. What a wanker!

So, just to show a huge v-sign, in my own small way, to wankers like Jeremy Hardy, we are now proudly flying a Cross of St George outside the Schloss Beaman.

Having said all that I am sure it will be an excellent World Cup and I wish I was there.

What is it about Mandela?

What is about Nelson Mandela that gets the pinko liberal PC types dribbling and wetting themselves with excitement. Even Gordon Ramsey was at it last night, cooking a birthday dinner for a load of has beens to celebrate St Nelson's nintieth birthday. Then, tonight, there is a concert by a load of has beens and wannabes somewhere in London. The great man will no doubt be in attendance with his never ending cheesy smile, in a tasteless Hawaiian shirt that even an overweight shoe salesman from Florida wouldn't be seen dead in.

And to top it all off he comes out with a pointless, meaningless and absurd comment about Zimbabwe that makes all the press drool and announce that he had, at last, broken his silence on Zimbabwe. All he did, for God's sake, was to refer to it as a 'tragic failure of leadership'. It's a bit more than that Mr Mandela. What a prat!

But at least we know now why Naomi Campbell went ballistic and got banned from British Airways. She's been dropped as a presenter at the Mandela concert, cute way of getting out of it I think. After all, if she'd pulled out of it herself she would probably have been punished much more severely.
