They may not possess the magic of old but Nkana have lost none of their drawing power.
Wherever they have gone this season, Nkana has been the biggest attraction of any visiting team in the Faz top-flight.
In Lusaka especially, Nkana have played in front of boisterous packed crowds with visits to Zanaco, City of Lusaka, Young Arrows and Lusaka Dynamos.
News that Nkana is in town this season has usually brought some economic impact with marginally healthier gate takings for the host club on match-day.
The draw isn’t only restricted to weekends as was witnessed in Nkana’s visit to Green Buffaloes in a midweek game on Wednesday, November 12 at Woodlands Stadium.
Woodlands was half-full on Wednesday -a rarity in any top-flight midweek game for years.
However, that little extra windfall for most away clubs could be short-lived for only this season.
Nkana are currently languishing in the relegation zone in 15th place with 27 points from 25 games played.
Coach Patrick Phiri has five games to save Nkana from a quick return to division 1 and should they go down a lot of clubs out there will be very sad to loose a lucrative paying visitor.

Zambian Football is not competitive at all.How can the leaders accumulate 45 points from the posible 75, shame in deed. Sometimes i even get ashamed when some games are shown on Supersport.
