South African Football Association Involved in Match Fixing

Recently we have seen so many alligations surfacing the football world regarding match fixing, first it was Zimbabwe National team where 80 players were suspended until futher investigations regarding thier match fixing at their tour to Asia.  Now SAFA has hit the alligations to as they are claimed to have had busniess deals with the Singaporean Businessman Perumal's company Football4U which bribed match officials to swing the game in Bafana Bafan's way. Now the questions are this winning streak mislead our national team during the world cup? was this the reason to the poor perfomance for Bafana at the world cup?

 SAFA CEO back then was Leslie Sedibe and has denied singing anything with Football4U in the Sunday Times. What was the reason behind the exchange of match officials and why are the questions on how they handled the games agianst Bulgaria,Thialand,Colombia and Guatamal. SAFA has corporated to any investigation conducted by FIFA as they are conducting their own investigaition in this matter even SAFA is conducting its own investigation and parties found guilty in this matter will face punishment. Hope that justice will be served and the name of SAFA will be cleared again.

    It seems that there are many challenges facing SAFA, from its management structure, till to its lower level management including national team, and the performance of Bafana Bafana is going down instead of growing.

    i dont see the purpose of match fixing in South Africa,seeing that the national teams perfomance is on a downward spiral. they are not winning matches and SAFA is not doing anything about it.I encourage fair play at all times, so if the national teams management is involved in match fixing,they should be caught and replaced then maybe the team will do better under new management.

    if SAFA really was involved in match-fixing, it is destroying football in SA and they are setting a bad example as they are the ones who always emphasise on how of a liabilty match-fixing is in the South African domestic leagues
