I don’t know if it’s just my observations, but there seems to be a lot more Saffas, or like a Brit called us the other day: Yarpies, in the Hong Kong Stadium this year. 

The usual “South African Corner” next to where the players enter the pitch is filled with Green & Gold as well as rainbow colors, while there are clear “green patches” to be seen on the infamous South Stand.

On one of my regular intrusions into the South Stand, I bumped into “Madiba” who promptly introduced my to his friends sporting what I would call “The Best Banner on the South Stand.” (Picture on the right)

All said and done:  “Welcome to Hong Kong, mense!”

Bokke Bo!
