Some time ago, I did need to buy a good car for my business but I did not have enough money and could not buy anything. Thank goodness my friend suggested to try to take the loan from reliable creditors. Therefore, I did that and was happy with my commercial loan.

Best Looking Stadium

Submitted by Stich on Fri, 05/28/2010 - 08:41.

If no one in Port Elizabeth has told you the Nelson Mandela Bay stadium is the most striking, that's because they are busy down there admiring it! Anyway, built in the "Windy" city, the stadium features have taken every element of its location and surroundings and on top of it all, it's visibility for miles into the east, both during day and night, simple makes it the best of the lot. It's become one of iconic features in the area which makes more than just a pitch for cowskin chasers and their have-nothing-else-to-do admires!

Mabhida... no Soccer City

Submitted by Thulaganyo on Thu, 05/13/2010 - 15:24.

It's hard for me to choose the best; I went to watch Chiefs vs Pirates in Moses Mabhida Stadium and I was blown away; recently drove past the SoccerCity (still refer to it as FNB) during nightime and at the time I thought to myself SoccerCity looks better than Moses Mabhida but... next week I'll get a chance to see the SoccerCity stadium inside when they reopen it; hopefully then I can make my final decision between SoccerCity 'FNB' and Moses Mabhida Stadium...

Cape Town stadia elegance and timeless


MM

Submitted by FromDurbs on Sun, 05/09/2010 - 16:07.

MM is a super stadium and clearly was designed with clear plans for future sustainability, something most of the others cannot say. The fact that nearly 100,000 people have ridden up the SkyCar, the cafes/bars are always full and there is a buzz of people walking the area daily is testamount to this. So its not only in use on match days. To top it off it is surrounded by fantastic new public facilities - a massive new people's park, with cafes lining its edge. a 1km running/cycling track, shops, a new train station and scope to put in an athletics track if the city goes for the big one (Olympics). With all this you can see why its a big tourist attraction...and it looks damn good!! Which other stadium can offer all this?

Well done Durbs, this a new airport and a massively improved beachfront all in one go? Its a totally new city


Don't really know

Submitted by Anonymous on Thu, 05/06/2010 - 10:11.

We are truly blessed with some breath taking stadia! I find it extremely difficult to pick the best from the scenic Cape Town Stadium, superb architecture of Nelson Mandela Bay and Soccer City and historic stadia such as Ellis Park and Loftus. I went for Moses Mabida Stadium. Not only is it a multipurpose and diverse stadium, it boast a fantastic view and state of the art technology and architecture.


South African Stadiums

Submitted by Siyolise on Wed, 05/05/2010 - 17:21.

I have personally voted Moses Mabida as the best---indeed it is! However, it is also a liberating fact that all these wonderful stadiums now form part of South African infrastructure. I am truly proud--awesome stuff!!!

when south african complain about service delivery, fatcats say there is no money.people lost their jobs. once the soccer festival is over, i bet these fancy stadiums will grow grass. fifa will be laughing all the way to the bank. people at the grass root level will starve to death. this is a capitalist country

Submitted by LETSATSANTSA on Tue, 05/04/2010 - 22:00.

Very disapointing for the Capital City to assume that Loftus Versfeld is still in good condition. I have attended Soccer matches at Loftus and there is only one side of the stadium withcomfortable seats. The blue seats that are normally advertised on most pictures are the only seats in good codition. NB: Please take a towel when going to Loftus or else your clothes will look like you have been swimming in the ashes with the sun burnt seats. The picth is not good for Soccer Matches, agree for Rugby matches will do. Maybe we should make Loftus resemble JACARANDA TREE. Too late for renovation anyway. WELL DONE to the Kingdom of ZULU. FACT: Moses Mabida Rocks

Moses Mabinda is a glamorous, The cable way above the stadium looks like the shooting star! I Love this Stadium. The Soccer City/Calabash is my second best. Peter Mokaba??????? I hope it will not be renamed Julius Malema in the near future! Mbombela is in true African style, sure it will capture the visitors 's eyes.


JHB or CT?

Submitted by Sam on Tue, 05/04/2010 - 14:16.

The Joburg stadium is IMPRESSIVE. I can only imagine what its like walking into that stadium before a game. Cape Town is more tasteful, more subtle and blands in well. I suppose both are suited to their cities' personality.


new stadia

Submitted by Anonymous on Tue, 05/04/2010 - 14:15.

I find it sad that all the wonderful new stadia have been designed solely for the playing of sport and therefore have very little sustainability. Where are the offices for medical and paramedical services? Do they have restaurants that can generate ongoing income? Are there anystall/shop facilities that can also generate ongoing interest and income?

Best stadium

Submitted by Colleen on Tue, 05/04/2010 - 11:36.

I think you need to look at how the stadia appear from a distance and how they complement the surrounding area. To me Cape Town's stadium looks like a boat out of water and Durban's is too much of a solid concrete block. Port Elizabeth's stadium is really beautiful. I haven't seen how the Soccer City stadium looks from afar, but from this picture it looks beautiful.

Moses Mabhida is the best in the world. Where on earth have you seen this ? The stadium is overlaping the sea this is the Best. I living in Gauteng I love Gauteng but this is the best in S.A.
SOCCER CITY - You are going to feel save.
ROYAL BAFOKENG - It is really for Kings & Queens.

The proof is in the eating. Ultimately it will be a question of atmosphere, comfit and the quality of the pitch

Location, Location, Location. also look at the surroundings of the stadiums Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban looks like its build in the middle of the railway yard.

(Table mountain in backdrop, the point of Africa ex. the list go on and on :-) )

Moses Mabhida stadium is the best by far!!! I'm lucky to be one of Durban's citizens.


Moses Mabhida

Submitted by Anonymous on Tue, 05/04/2010 - 08:56.

The first choice is the Moses Mabhida stadium
The design,aesthetics,multi-purpose facility and location gets the thumbs up for this beauty.
The all year round fine weather must surely be an attraction to stage other international events.
Post World Cup will see the venue attracting much public interest in the other attractions on offer.
A big and hearty congratulations must go to every person involved in building all of our stadia.
Way to go Durbs

I honestly think Durban's Stadium is the best by far.


Durbanite opinion

Submitted by Unbiased on Tue, 05/04/2010 - 01:17.

Yes it has a lame name - better than the original though! - but the Moses Mabhida Stadium is the most aesthetically pleasing. Yes it has an athletics track around it which means you are farther from the action, but there is a reason they built it as such.

Unlike CTs stadium which will serve little purpose once the cup is over, Durban's stadium has flexibility: a case in point being that over 60000 people have already used the sky car which in itself will offset some of the costs... but more importantly it has been designed with the Olympics in mind.

Durban is hosting the IOC Meeting to decide on the venue for the 2018 Winter Olympics and it is a no brainer that the city will use the opportunity to court officials and show them how Durban would be a suitable venue for either the 2020 or 2024 Summer Olympics.

Durbans Stadium is really beautifull. You can see it for miles.
Congrats to Durbs.


favourite stadium

Submitted by soc-fan on Sat, 05/01/2010 - 17:21.

I have to say the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban is by far the best. For one, it is finished, even the paving and the roads leading to it! Which is more than one can say for some of the others. It has added attractions that will be there long after the visitors have gone home.

I was lucky enough to go on a guided tour through the stadium, and of course, the Sky Car. The Swing Jump I am saving for my next trip.

If Soccer City isn't ready by the 11th June, they should move the opening to Durbs. Soccer City might be finished, but, how do you get there? The roads are a mess and the paving is - where? Will they be keeping that horrible wire mesh fencing, or - hopefully - put up a permanent fence? It seems they have left everything to the last minute (and of course the strike did NOT help) and all we seem to get lately is rain.


The Best!

Submitted by devaux on Sat, 05/01/2010 - 16:35.

Durban's stadium is by far the best and it just looks stunning. especially when lit up in the evenings and it has added attractions such as a cable car ride to view the city and a bungy jump. This will be a continued attraction to holiday makers for years to come. Well done Durbs!


Ball Rolling

Submitted by Taicoon on Thu, 04/29/2010 - 12:21.

These shots are a bit deceiving. Ok fine, my fav stadium is Moses Mabhida, having had the best seat there once. But the one with the best laid pitch for me is the Royal Rafokeng stadium. If you saw South Africa vs Spain during the Confed cup, you'll testify. Soccer City looks spectacular on the pictures, can't wait to see it when it's packed to capacity...


Mind blowing!

Submitted by Lerato on Thu, 04/29/2010 - 09:24.

I must say the Royal Bafokeng stadium is way too plain if one compares it to the rest..as for the Cape town stadium,Soccer City and Moses Mabhida these 3 are Mind blowing just beautifull...indeed the structural designs are of impeccable taste!!

Pick your favourite Stadium

Submitted by Alet White on Thu, 04/29/2010 - 08:13.

Thank you for your brilliant display of all the venues. You make it diffucult to decide which is the most beautiful. But... Why is it that the Mbombela Stadium appears to be very dark and sinister? Just another steel construction?
It is unfair not to give the stadium a chance to be chosen as the most beautiful and fully representative of "Africa" in all its glory!
Take a close-up picture (like the other stadiums) and also in broad day light so that people can see the Girafes holding up the roof, the Zebra skin pattern painted on the chairs and all the bright and cheerful colours the walls are painted to demonstrate our "rainbow nation"
"Mbombela Stadium Rocks!!!!" I rest my case!


Soccer World Cup Stadia

Submitted by Barbara on Thu, 04/29/2010 - 08:01.

Congratulations! They are stunning - favourite, most elegant are the Nelson Mandela, Soccer City and Cape Town. Well done, indeed..... I never doubted the Stadia would be original and special, and finished...
