a stadium fit for a World CupThe impressive stadium in Cape Town is at Green Point with a capacity of 68,000. The roof is unique, made of glass and based (apparently) on a bicycle wheel. Security is high and as yet i am unable to get up close and personal.
England play Algeria here on the 19th June and i feel obliged to hang on here until after this game before travelling on to Port Elizabeth for England’s last group game against Slovenia.
Meanwhile, despite the efforts of Austrian Barbara, no ticket has materialised for England’s opening group match against the United States in Rustenburg. Thus my American travelling companion John will be forced to watch this with me in a Cape Town bar. To him, beautiful Ying, Carie the Book et. al. - be prepared for a whipped ass – i hope.
Six matches are scheduled to be played here, including the 2nd match of the tournament, France versus Urugauy, England against Algeria, a quarter final and semi final match.
