AFCON AND BAFANA
I READ in The Times on Wednesday that in a poll taken, 84% will not be attending any Afcon matches! All that money being wasted on a non-event.
CLEM
WHOEVER set dates for Afcon need their heads examined. With Christmas spending, kids back to school etc, who has money for soccer?
CAVEMAN
AFCON promotion flop. Why are we not surprised?
BANJO
LIKE the headline "Cricket fever". Bafana so useless they don't even deserve back page.
CRICKET FAN
SO much for the Bafana "DREAM TEAM". They can't even beat a weak team from Norway! They won't make it past the first round of Afcon.
ROSS
GORDON Igesund happy with team's performance? What is he smoking?
ROD
HOW do we know Tuesday's match was not fixed, Mr Safa president?

CHILD ABUSE
DRUNK or not, that child did not deserve to be thrown like a ball. Moral decay of society is shameful and sad and getting worse. Jail for you.

MARTIN Luther King said: "I have a dream". Barack Obama said: "I have a drone".

PIET NAUDE
CAN we more often read articles by Piet Naude? What a pleasure to learn from him.
PIET SMITH
Piet Naude has been on holiday, but his column returns on Tuesday. – The editor
CAPE TOWN PARADE
"POST-MINSTREL tension". It seems like the Mother City had her usual problems with the New Year parade?
ALAN CAMPBELL
SHAKESPEARE IN THE DARK
IN your report "Park theatre left in the dark" you refer to "King Hamlet". Methinks 'tis not only the theatre that is in the dark.
DERRICK FELLOWS
The story was correct. Gift Buqa plays the Ghost King Hamlet. – The editor
KINGS RUGBY
TIGER Mangweni – player of the year 2012 out of Kings 2013! In come Argentines. Disgusting kings!

WHY DO WE PAY RATES
METRO please tell us what do we pay rates for? PE is overgrown, filthy and corruption is shocking. Are rates for the till fingers?
GRAN
BUS SYSTEM
RAPID Road Transport System: can anyone tell us what happened? NO BUSES – is it another R30-million wasted?
CONCERNED RATEPAYER
AKADEMIA LANGUAGE POLICY
AKADEMIA: their money, their effort. What is your effort cuckoo bird?
WASSIE
SCHOOL TEXTBOOKS
NO books in Limpopo yet? What's new?
JAN H
RELIGIOUS QUOTES
WHY no more quotes from the Koran? We Muslims also buy and read the Herald. We enjoy verses from the Bible but please let us have from Koran as well.

GREY MATRIC
DID The Herald not notice that a Grey matriculant got 10 distinctions?
OUBOK
RUBBISH COLLECTION
MANY citizens are clueless when it comes to disposing of their garbage. All the time and any time is a good time for them. Don't blame council.
CLEAN-UP
REPLIES TO READERS' COMMENTS
POOR Bredo believes that strikers and service delivery protesters have nothing to complain about, because it is "not in their culture to complain".
BARRY
WHAT to support, Sue Sperry. A good place for donations is The Salvation Army.
HENRY
WELL said Prof Pierre de Vos. "Bigotry is not common sense".
ESP
SMELL at municipal offices is from dead workers at their desks.

ISRAEL is the chosen nation. Wake up, Mavovana.
