Bucs Faithful7/29/2010 11:03 AM: @ Lionel whatever amount of millions Mr Carlos Parreira took home he deserve more than that based on the changes and hope he instilled on the players and the entire nation. He has earned far more than what you are crying for, over years coaching different teams. Just forget about his salary and incentives bcos he deserve the best. For your information collection Fabio Capello n Marcello Lippi earn $9m and $8m annually respectively. With all these big cheques what happened to England and Italy?

gav7/29/2010 9:15 AM: Good bye couch,you done what no other couch has done before"not getting us out of the group stages" hahahahaha,so spend your millions with a good laugh hahahaha

Mthi7/29/2010 7:18 AM: You did well coach, your work with the team unified the nation. By the time the W.C. started even those who formerly hated Bafana had new faith in the team. Well done!

Mjanisto7/28/2010 9:31 PM: Perreira my hero, you are the best, I wish u stayed until 2014. Well done I hope you left your contacts to Pitso in case of emergency. Those who are complaining know nothing about soccer.

nkule7/28/2010 9:25 PM: well done coach u da best among da rest nd al da best in futer may de god bless u nd yo family

Mavsan7/28/2010 6:24 PM: Thank you Carlos, u did us proud. Forget all these nrgative comments from the doomsayers. We love you in this country.

Julia7/28/2010 6:00 PM: Thank you very much coach,you the best.Ilove you so much no one else like Godbless you and you family for making South Africa proud.

john wewege7/28/2010 5:43 PM: Thank you Coach. You made us proud. Well done. Hope to see you back soon!

Albert Einstein@fromEurope7/28/2010 5:33 PM: we did much better in 1995, if you don't know anything about Africa fix Europe....Shalom

queen malope7/28/2010 5:20 PM: go well Carlos you came back to SA to couch Bafana while they were dismal, we manage to score, win and draw because of your effort.

From Europe7/28/2010 5:13 PM: What is up with South Africans and money, who cares what he got paid. I don't quiet think RSA knows how good this coach is. He is ranked amongst the best in the world. Bfana's performance impressed allot of people here in Europe, as the coach managed to achieve much ground in RSA football in such a short space of time. PS - Can South African's please accept there are rich and poor people in this world, get over it!

Jannas7/28/2010 5:05 PM: Pity we did not give this man a heroes farewell. He deserved one. He saved us a lot of face. I wish him well for the future.

Robert7/28/2010 4:18 PM: Good bye Carlos... Thank you for giving us hope and belief behind Bafana... You made the World Cup even more incredible!

Brazilian7/28/2010 4:14 PM: Parreira did very well well... Lets stop complaining about his salary or underachievement. We all knew bafana´s limitations... he at least made SA play football, score goals... And salaries in the world of high level football are high... you either pay for talented / successfull individuals or continue in the same old cycle of cheap and nasty! Well done Parreira and thanks for all your effort and passion for South Africa!

Zapiro7/28/2010 4:09 PM: You did a good job Sir, it's was not your fault that the hapless bafana banana were knocked out in 1st round. Now Pitso is talking about reducing number of foreign players to 3/squad and forcing U23 in the starting lineup of every PSL team. Those measures may not help SA football. Just this weekend the U-20 squad was beaten 2-0 @home by Lesotho U-20. No body speaks about it or even writes about it. We are useless from the lower level up to the senior level. Don't blame Parriera not even Santana. Even with Sir Alex as a coach SA will not become a world beater. Period. http://www.cafonline.com/competition/can-u-20_2011/news/6043-lesotho-stun-south-africa-in-u-20-qualifier.html

Danny7/28/2010 4:09 PM: soone we will have a bafana split

Nick7/28/2010 4:00 PM: This guy never claimed to be an alchemist. We wanted him, we paid him what he wanted and now we cry about the money we paid him, BS! If you wanted magic you should have hired David Copperfield! South Africa did great, we will always be proud of Bafana and Mr Parreira!

Mtura7/28/2010 3:56 PM: To those who are more concerned about the money he earned rather than the legacy left behind, shame on you! This man has established a strong foundation for our football to compete with international stage. Bafana were competitive and so what if they didn't qualify, England and Italy also didn't qualify. I just wish our people can be more educated about the game so they can realize the how lucky we were to have him. Start being supporters and stop being celebrators.....

belinda7/28/2010 3:52 PM: eish i am disapponted by the people who always think negativer,parreira did a good work,and i am wishing him well in his future,thank you mr perraira for putting the country football in shape,we will see u in 2014 BRAZIL!!!!

Sthabela7/28/2010 3:50 PM: pls coach Perreira go well-you didn't give us the expections of getting to quaterfinal-i don't know y people still respect u,u didn't even manage 2 go the second round in our home ground-u achieved the same results that Mr Jomo Sono achieve in 2002-korea/japan-u don't deserve our praises-go and eat ur millions wisely-

Charles7/28/2010 3:40 PM: Coaches are expensive. There is no need of many talking about Parreira money! ask how munch players are payed per week? jealous!!! If you want to make this kind of money his way then become a great coach!!! some of the coaches like Louis Fellipe Scolari can not work for this amount it is too litle for them!!!

Bowout7/28/2010 3:40 PM: Big up to Parriera,Pitso is already a looser he is a small fish.

Mr Drew7/28/2010 3:37 PM: Well he cretainly gave the SAFA bank account a Brazillian Wax. No wonder he is smiling.

Raj7/28/2010 3:33 PM: Well done..thank you for your role in the SWC.

Gambler7/28/2010 3:06 PM: Bye Carlos hope you invest your millions wisely.

Temba7/28/2010 3:00 PM: thanks for going, you made a killing in a short space of time...It will be very much appreciated if you could volunteer your services next time around...

Kingkaizer7/28/2010 2:54 PM: Farewell, Parreira, you did us proud. I liked your professionalism. Wishing you all the best in your home country and future endeavours.

Sox7/28/2010 2:48 PM: Good for him he milked SAFA idiots with his Brazilian friend, now tell us SAFA what did Mr Parreira achieve during WC with Bafana? as far as we South Africans know nothing.

chef7/28/2010 2:39 PM: Thanks Carlos 4 ur contribution to SA football. Much appreciated, we will now take it from here to new heights as all Sout Africans, as at the end of the day Bafana's success is the Nation's success. thanks angain and good luck in your future eneavours.

Lionel7/28/2010 2:31 PM: So, how many millions of Rands did he take with him? SA's balance of payments is sure to be in the red this month. Cannot say that he did an outstanding job.

odgar7/28/2010 2:26 PM: thank you Mr CAP your job was wonderful in SA i real appriciate it, go well may god bless you

SteveD7/28/2010 2:08 PM: MMmmm - not only is HE leaving the country - he's also taking with the millions he was paid, twice!! I wonder how much Pitso is going to earn and what impact he will have on the Bafanas!!

SA Supporter7/28/2010 2:05 PM: No doubt a very wealthy man

067/28/2010 1:50 PM: Good bye the man, the couch, the legend! See you in 2014 in Brazil Sir!
