WORLD Cup News now – Anorak’s Countdown To Crapello – as Germany’s footballer are told to wear bullet-proof vests in South Africa.
As Anorak reader Yampster notes:
We all know they started it…but isn’t this holding a grudge for just a little too long?
Guenter Schnelle from BaySecur (the team’s security outfit) tells German magazine Sport-Bild:
“The possibility for the players of moving outside of the hotel boundaries should be kept to a minimum. Otherwise there must be a full escort: armed security guards and bullet-proof vests for the players.”
And tanks?
Gratuitous and jingoistic? Not yet…
