The South African Football Association president Danny Jordaan has rubbished a petition that alleges he is corrupt and accuses SAFA of the misuse of the 2010 FIFA World Cup Legacy Trust, and has confirmed that the association is taking the said person to court.
A report written by Bart Henderson accuses Jordaan of misusing the 2010 FIFA World Cup Legacy Trust, and it is understood the association will hold a press conference in the coming weeks to address this issue.
Jordaan has hit back at these allegations, saying they are taking Henderson to court, insisting the forensic investigator was hired by former people at SAFA.
“A white man who is a right wing Afrikaner writes rubbish,” said Jordaan to iDiski Times.
“We have already said we are taking him to court. You must wait for the lawyers and when they are ready, we will call the press conference and we will sue this guy, charge him.”
Playing the man not the ball is a yellow card in soccer. Could be a red card.
What's not in doubt are the many South African Football Association administration Red Flags!
“A white man who is a right wing Afrikaner writes rubbish,” won't cut it. Only answering to the substance of the claims as set out in my recent report and in the wider media over a period of time will.
Its time for the soccer mother body FIFA to tell President Danny Jordaan to step aside and SAFA to open its books.
