Bafana coach Baxter says SA football now reminds him of England 6 or 7 years ago

After decades of underachievement from the national team‚ Baxter said that‚ having qualified for the Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt in June and July‚ he will face both potentially optimistic expectation‚ and pessimism and anger should the team not perform.

“I think we can start off by saying that I don’t think the Afcon qualifying campaign was a bad one. In a lot of ways we made a lot of progress. “I think we can all agree that OK‚ this was not a bad campaign. There were things I didn’t like – obviously the Seychelles game [SA’s 0-0 away draw].

He doesn't inspire any confidence
