    Too early to comment on how much our profile had raised in africa, think somebody posted a while back that shirt sales had gone up by 1000% over there

    Really?

    African people must not be are poor are we are led to believe then...

    Impossible mate, unless SAFC are virtually giving shirts away....

    Plus on a secondary point, where have all these official SAFC shops been opened?

    Well Africa isn't actually a country at all, it's a continent that contains many countries.

    Some of them are indeed very rich in minerals. Nigeria has masses of oil.
    Zimbabwe was once known as the bread basket of Africa, that was when it was known as Rhodisia under Ian Smith.
    However, the people wanted their own leadership. They got it. They got that nice guy Robert Mugabe, now they're ****ing starving.

    Countries like Chad, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Niger, Sudan, Somalia, Liberia, Mozambique, Rwanda, Uganda have been ripped apart by wars over the years & the people haven't got a pot to piss in.

    So just who are these rich people?
    Just to save you looking it up, I'll tell you. The ****ing presidents & all their ****ing cronies that's who.
    While the people haven't got so much as a bowl of rice, these fat twats are sitting in their palaces dining on the finest steaks.

    Sorry to have a go but it boils my piss.

    Isn't Africa the most thriving continent in the world at the minute billy? Mass growth and wealth year on year with more to come. I think your living in the past if you think all of Africa is poor!

    Some parts of it are, yes.

    I understand where your coming from but its the same globally, if you gathered the worlds wealth and distributed it eavenly we'd all be millionaire's!

    Adz is right though its a booming continent, poverty will always exist however unfair it may seem

    So Africa is booming, and SAFC are going to try and exploit this....

    Billy is correct, some parts are, some are not...

    So just how can a club like SAFC take advantnge over the global domination of the big clubs?

    Note i detour from the connection of Mandela, totally different thread..

    No I don't expect you to but Comm will know what I mean.
    I won't explain it on a public forum.
    I'm not having a go at you as I think you are a good man.
    I like you, I'm drawing a line under this.

    Gottcha mate...

    Mandela is a different thread, or maybe one left well alone...i expect i think along the same lines as yourself....


    Now down to these sponsorships, well....last year we were lulled in by Ji and the potential of Asia ( yes the blooming continent of the world not Africa)
