Calling #PrincessHotspurs

While we celebrate the recent success of Bafana Bafana we should be very concerned by the poor performance of our other national team, Tottenham Hotspurs, in the English Premier League.

Just consider how much a R1bn investment from our taxpayers, routed through SA Tourism, could have added to the fortunes of a team that is rapidly descending the ladder (“De Lille advises tourism board to halt Tottenham Hotspur sponsorship deal”, March 24).

But wait, there is a solution. Spurs has just fired its hapless manager and is looking for a replacement.

And here, Lindiwe Sisulu, who lorded over SA Tourism during the aborted sponsorship talks, has also lost her position in the cabinet.

I think this is a job for #PrincessHotspurs.
