Vuvuzela

...the joyful expression of South African culture...

If this is joyful I'd hate to hear them when they're bored!

I haven't got a problem if they want to use them when SA are playing - thats supporting their team their way - but to have a load of neutral SA supporters (with cheap tickets no doubt) spoiling all the matches is too much.
I want to hear fans supporting their team - chants, songs, even horns - but the single monotone is bringing it all down - just plain BORING.
I reckon its a ploy by the SFA to bore all the other teams into playing at the same pitch and so far its pretty much working.

Its like when one of your kids gets a toy trumpet for xmas - let them play with it for a couple of days - even try to get them to play a tune - but then hide it when they're not looking.
Anyone got an empty warehouse in Joburg?

irony: the incessant, irritating drone of people complaining about vuvuzelas.

The BBC Philharmonic Orchestra play some tunes on the vuvuzela:

Isn't it funny how people have to respect the traditions of other countries so not to offend. Yet when visitors arrive to this country we have to stop doing things in case we cause offence to them. I don't know, like flying and England flag at one time
