Wednesday's football pieces

• The New Statesman takes a look at the lilting nuance of the vuvuzela.
  
  
• They must have been watching the way the professionals play them.
  
  
• BBC website about why have the Cup in Africa and then insist it's too African.
  
  
• The Guardian tells us that goalies are basically misfits
  
  
• Disgraceful detention of Dutch fans for wearing cloths with logos from non-sponsors.
  
  
• After the ITV cock-up the Independent reminds us the ads have spoiled the fun before.
  
  
• Mark Steel has a great time denouncing the not so free market of the World Cup.
  
  
• Lastly, I enjoyed this letter from Eddie Dougall, "The incessant noise of the South African vuvuzelas is a disappointment: it is still possible to hear the non-stop comments from the pundits and commentators above it."
