Soccer fever

Soccerex 2008 is underway at the Sandton Convention Centre and the 2010 passion and vibe is palpable throughout Sandton. People and organisations are focused and driven, all of their eyes on one 2010 ball. This afternoon and tonight the atmosphere swept me along too.

In the heart of Sandton there's a slick, professional feel and I felt proud of what has thus far been achieved despite the challenges and criticism. My only concern is what are we as a nation going to live for once this particular show is over?
