An open letter to SAFA president

I was humbled by your humility and down-to- earth personality. I could not pick up any pomp in you, but instead saw someone who is smart and thorough in his job.  It is now on record that you did an exceptional good job as chief executive officer of both the local organising committee, as well as the South African Football Association, positions, which you held interchangeably.

It is therefore not surprising that you are now president of the South African Football Association (SAFA). I guess you have learnt a lot of tricks from FIFA president, Joseph Sepp Blatter.
