    Only a couple so far...

    CONCACAF

    Joel Aguilar, William Torres, Francisco Zumba (SLV)

    CONMEBOL

    Héctor Baldassi, Ricardo Casas, Hernán Maidana (ARG)

    Obviously there are more to come, and I'll add them as I see them.

    Don't know if it's public yet so I won't confirm, but there is at least one surprise (at least from my perspective). It seems that this tournament won't staffed entirely by WC2010 candidates.

    A few additions to the list:

    CONCACAF

    Marco Rodriguez (MEX)

    UEFA

    Ivan Bebek (CRO)
    Olegario Benquerença (POR)
    Frank De Bleeckere (BEL)
    Thomas Einwaller (AUT)
    Roberto Rosetti (ITA)
    Alberto Undiano Mallenco (ESP)

    Quite a young and inexperienced contingent from UEFA, save for FdB and Rosetti. Should be interesting.

    Well, it's all WC candidates so far, right? UEFA's WC candidate's list is relatively inexperienced compared to how it's looked in the past, so this makes sense.

    That being said, despite what I said a few weeks back, I hear we're going to see a surprise insofar as the American referee.
