World Cup Doom And Gloom....Part 1,452

Ahead of every World Cup - in fact, ahead of every major sporting event - there are always doom-mongers bleating on about how the host country will never be ready in time, or doesn't have the infrastructure or doesn't have sufficient toilet paper to meet demand or something.

So, with out further ado, I present today's gloom and doom predictions for South Africa 2010.

The Times is going with electricity blackouts and soaring metal prices :

The UN are concerned about racism: http://www.un.org/apps/news/story.asp?NewsID=34141&Cr=racism&Cr1=

And the Sun are worried about fans being ripped off:

Me? I'm worried that it's all going to go very well and people will have a fantastic time in South Africa. I'm worried that then those scare-mongering media types will have to say 'oops, we got it all wrong'.

What's that you say? It's not going to happen? Oh. OK.
