You all know by now how exited I get on Fridays. Generally, even those who are always happy (haven't seen one yet), becomes more happier on Friday.
Today is as true a "Football Friday" as it gets. The Beautiful Birds are up against Maritzburg United for a football service at the Harry Gwala Stadium. At stake here, is the three points we need to get up the log, but also we need to have "Mazinyo" as miserable as possible. The man destroyed one of our own creations.
Something we have to be cautious of today is conceding early and having to come back from behind. We've been down that road and have done well at AmaZulu and against Pirates in the recent finals. However, that can only go on for so long! That spirit is awesome to witness. Sometimes even a draw feels like a win when you've come back from behind. The coach talks about that spirit saying:
"I am proud of leading this team. The players have touched the hearts of the nation with their fighting spirit and I am sure that our efforts will soon pay dividends in the league. "The coach is right, we've touched the hearts of the nation. Some hearts were soothed, like mine. But others we grabbed them and just run short of sticking the knife in and those guys won't be happy coach.
Anyway, I'll be the more happier if you can touch "Mazinyo's" heart for me. Only in the manner of twisting it a bit, soothing it and when he's just getting his breath back, You stick the PANGA/ machete right through his awful heart!
More important for us, is the need to take the initiative right from the start, we can not concede especially from our own mistakes. Those have to be cut out right away.
Something about Mr Zobel. A while back, he missed a media circus (Ok media briefing), but he had the honour to explain and apologies for the mishap. That there, is a mark of a "man of honour".
I am mentioning this because Vladimir Vermezovic, coach of the famed Other team, decide to walk out of the media circus and declare never to talk to them unless where compelled by PSL regulations.
Well good luck VV, lets see if you can win the fight against media bunch. Hey, why not form a support group with JZ and Bheki?
VV: Ello, I am VV and totally hate the media!
JZ: Welcome VV!
Bheki: Tell that Motaung boy to shoot to kill, aim for the head, the HEEEEAAAAD!Here's to three points!
Cheers and see you soon
