I read on BBC that COSAFA is having problems hosting a tournament chances are that the tournament might not take place this year.Is it wrong to suggest that Malawi need to consider rejoining the EAST AND CENTRAL AFRICAN CHALLENGE CUP?Malawi was at their highest peak during the late 80’s and early 90’s when they were in this tournament.They also hosted the tournament thereby earning a substantial revenue.Malawi has not benefitted at all in COSAFA in anyway.Our football standards have gone down as most teams send a third rate team to play.CECAFA could provide a real test because teams like,Kenya,Uganda,Tanzania rank better than Malawi as opposed to COSAFA where we have teams like minnows Swaziland and Lesotho.

FIFA should really think about the fixed friendly dates. Most competitive games will be played September 5/6 but the fixed friendly date is August 12. It is bad timing because it doesn’t prepare teams for official games. The English Premiership League starts August 15. Most players will fake injuries. It will be very interesting for Fifa to make a study of the players who will not play (due to “injuries”) in national team friendlies on August 12 but who will play on Saturday or Sunday August 15/16 in the English Premiership League all some other leagues.

Leduke, it seems Bafana Bafana mean business. George, according to The Daily Times, Malawi beat Swaziland 3-1 in “a game one would have mistaken for a competitive one.” Asungi, did you get in? Did everyone receive the “meal pack”? Chiko, according to the Swaziland Head Coach: “You have a very good side I am impressed how you managed to hold the ball.” It seems The Flames will make it to Angola. Tim, mine is not “yellow journalism”. The headline may be “sensational” but the “reporting” isn’t.

I rarely read Malawi news but the eye-catching 100-0 headline got me. Do you also report for The Sun?

If we want to make it to Angola we really need to put in everything. Kinnah had to plead with Sulom to release the players for the game against Swaziland.

This year’s celebrations were exactly like the Kamuzu’s time. Rallies, dances, displays, army/police parades and football match. Remember we have clocked 45 years since independence. The stadium was so full they had to close the gates by 8am. The ones loitering around had some chasing from the riot police and others decided to invade Game Stores and Shoprite Checkers which are just next to the stadium to steal etc. They had to close the shops as the security inside the shops could not control the ‘unwanted customers’.
