If you're bored of all the same articles appearing on all the serious football websites, this is the place to come for a more light-hearted view of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. I should also point out that everything on the blog is complete fantasy, so shouldn't be taken seriously.

Maradona Exclusive

It was with great surprise that we found an email from Diego Maradonna in out inbox this morning. He was supposed to send us some answers for profile piece a few days ago, but somehow managed to send us his diary instead. It makes for some interesting reading.

May 28th – Ran over a reporter today. Not sure why everyone is making a big fuss. I am Diego and I do what I like.
June 1st – My guys have told me I won’t be able to take any cocaine with me on the plane. What is this bullshit?
June 2nd – Panic over. Apparently there is a plentiful supply of cocaine in South Africa. I don’t think I could cope without my special breakfast of cornflakes sprinkled with nose candy. Tasty.
June 7th – I’m having trouble picking my best 11. Everyone is quite good. There also this annoying kid called Leo that keeps following us around. For some reason he thinks he’s going to play for the team. Poor kid is probably not all there. Maybe I’ll let him be the mascot.
June 10th – The team keep asking me for tactical advise. I’ve told them to go out and win. What more do they want?
June 11th – That Leo kid is really starting to piss me off. I told him to go and cleam my car and he thought it was all a big joke.
June 12th – Victory for Argentina! Diego is a genius.
