This guy has it so good, he spends 90% of the year writing columns exalting the gaa over football and even more so rugby. But for the last 2 weeks or so the guy has suddenly taken over as the times headline sports reporter at the WC. Galling to say the least. Going on about everything great about the game, the spectacle etc.
Despite my dislike of his over the top bias, he has (for once) written a good article today about the WC and the effect of the FIFA commercial machine on South Africa.
