If I recall correctly, the problem with taking such a bet is that they didn't actually complete the Africa draw when that whole razzle dazzle was put on by Fifa.
We know who is in our group (Botswana, Central African Republic, Ethiopia), and we know that the group winners will go into play-offs against each other to get the final 5, but we don't know which group winner we will face.
Has that been sorted out yet?
Even so, if we can't win our group we might as well dismantle the entire football structure in this country and start over.
We should at least get into the play-off to face one of the likes of Tunisia, Ivory Coast/Morocco, Ghana/Zambia, Burkina Faso/Gabon/Niger/Congo(!), Nigeria, Egypt, Algeria, Cameroon or Senegal.

The only reason our team will go to Brazil is to be mascots.

Sure you can get well over 1000/1
The African teams "topping" the boards lol are Ghana and Ivory Coast at around 160/1
Brazil are 9/2 favs spain 5/1, argentina 6/1, 8/1 germans, 16/1 england/holland
2014 if way outside my long term planning, just hoping to catch my Derby ante post and thats only Sat!
Good punting!
