Appeal to all South
Africans and Springbok Supporters:
This is a
patriotic appeal to Springbok supporters and proud South Africans all over the
world, and particularly those in London and England. This is a very important
message and requires your support to spread the word and make it happen.
This Friday, 19th October, we call upon all South Africans abroad to
wear green and gold in public, especially on their way to and from work. Whether
it is your Springbok rugby jersey or just a South Africa t-shirt - make sure
it's visible. If you are required to wear a suit - wear it over your shirt and
tie on your way in to work. If you work casual - wear your green and gold!
This is in response to a similar call made by Thabo Mbeki earlier in the
week to South Africans at home, to show our very proud support and solidarity
for John Smit and the team as they take on England this Saturday in the Rugby
World Cup final.
Let us show the world that we stand as one - 100%
behind the men in Green and Gold. Wear your colours not with arrogant pride but
with a sense of unity and how far our nation has come!
Most
importantly: as a matter of urgency please forward this message by email, SMS or
word of mouth to all the South Africans you know. Time is of the essence. Send
it back home to family and friends so they can send it on to others abroad.
Let's show the world.
This is not only for a bit of fun -
press and other organisations have been informed to capture the day. This show
of support will hopefully be broadcast and the boys in France will gain a sense
of the immense support behind them.
All the best, and most of all, enjoy
the game on Saturday!
Come on Bokke!!!!!!
