ASTANA Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 I would say - its part of our soccer culture - so keep it there! Its amazing that this made such headlines in the media. I mean most of us (white south Africans), never cared or even watched SA soccer games!! Now we are the ones who complain. If you watch football - it different to our soccer and African soccer for sure, but this does not mean that they (football side) can decide to change the culture and atmosphere in African soccer. Ban it from rugby games and everything else though - it will not fit there. We shout and sing in rugby like European Football What amazes me is that they sound of the vuvuzela never dies - it only changes volume during a game - 90min!!! Would be cool if the crowd can piss of Brazil with the "noise" and let our boys give them a go, like the Spain game.
Dirt*girl™ Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 Once, during a rugby game...my little sis was blowing her vuvuzela...this old lady tapped her on the back and told her, this is not a sport for a bunch of hooligans. ermm ok. Just then about 5 guys to the left of us, blew their vuvu's. So my sis did too..she then emptied her can of beer on my sis. ya...all I'll say is her husband walked away in shame.
Mudsimus Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 As long as it pisses the europeans off I'll love it!!

MTB0007 Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 My Point .. exactly .. we have accepted a noisy lack of culture as acceptable..I was in Italy last month.. - and in Europe last year..Only when I came back - did I realised how conditioned to a lack of respect & a lack of culture we have become.......Its OK to enjoy something - but to become A HOOLIGAN ..I question.. the culture... My 2c opinion...
