King for a lifetime, fool for a... lifetime...

This would be quite the coup for the South African national soccer team. I've long said on here that they're a disgrace, due largely to the fact that they've had about 136 coaches in the last 8 years. The embarrassment of the failed '06 WC qualifying campaign only highlighted the program's deficiancies. But now, to ink a coach as reputable as Parreira, it looks like things are about to get back on track in time for 2010. I only pray that the powers that be grant Parreira the time that his predecessors were not afforded. That's the key to righting this rickety ship.
