  1. #1 Kitwe boys
    please dont talk about Nkana like that
    have a little respect
    the Nkana you are calling hopeless has contributed a lot to Zambian football
    you have to understand football history and get to the bottom of the problem
    and even after you do, you don’t just condemn but provide solutions
    Nkana’s poor performance is due to lack of sponsorship after the fall of ZCCM
    My simple advice is that you help find solutions. no one will develop Zambian football if we don’t.

  2. Good now that the league has finally ended on the pitch & not in the board room as advocated 4 by those crooks. Kalusha must be embarrassed now that teams no longer obey him. Thanx to Kamanga & Simaata 4 bringing order

  3. Chi # 6 you are foolish. The league ended a long time ago. This is your league with stupid Andrew and Simata. Dont mention Kalu in your idiocy. leave great Kalu alone swin.

  4. iwe chi # 7 why insulting? Ulichipuba sana go to hell with yo frustrations makaka. If league ended a long time ago why did all these big teams such as Zesco, Zanaco, Power Dynamos, Bufaloes, Red Arrows, Nkwazi, Choma Eagles etc continue to play? It ended yesterday!!!

  5. # 7 you are dull like Kalu, How can he even call himself FAZ president when all the big teams have rejected him. They dont even listen to him. Shame on # 7 and Kalu, Viva simata, thats the way to go.

  6. “The FAZ delegation led by President Kalusha Bwalya left on Friday evening and landed in the Swiss city of Zurich on Sunday morning. Everything is well with the Association and our football chiefs in Europe.

    We are looking forward to the meeting which we believe will accord every stakeholder an opportunity to understand and appreciate the state and situation of the Football Association of Zambia,” FAZ Communications Manager Erick Mwanza told fazfootball.com.

    “On the same, we would like to condemn that poor, inaccurate and clearly concocted component of reporting which is shameful and an embarrassment to the noble profession of journalism. A named newspaper reported that FAZ had subbed some members of the Association believed to be travelling to Zurich. In the first instance, nobody…

  7. Fools will support fellow fools that why # 7 is support his fellow fool. It’s useless been a president when pipo can’t listen to you. Galu said league finished long time ago & when he wanted team to play they refused but when kamanga & samataa said to the teams, they listened. Shame on galu viva samataa & kamanga

  8. I am in support of # 7. # 8,9 15 are confused characters who dont think properly. Cant u see that simataa is pushing for personal agenda. It’s unfortunate the so called big teams have fallen prey. Anyhow, we still have Nchanga, Nkana, Roan, Forest and Konkola – amongst others who refused to be a part of this nonsense. The real fool in not # 7 but those who have illusions and want to stir confusion at all times.
    I rest my case!

  9. Those who want to live in Dreamland can dream of Zesco winning the league. The rest of us in Zambia know the league has already ended

  10. Meeting in Zurich has finished. Congrats to no other than the King himself, u know who …………………………. King Kalu. All other matters hv been reffered to the AGM. At least now we can relax and talk abt football on the pitch and not politics. Shalom Shalom.

  11. kalusa walya is supported by FIFA but has no followerz pa zed but Kamanga has support of 2/3 of counsellors plus premier league behind him. so kalusa’s leadership is only in Zurich as no one obeyz him on the ground. They dont want him. Hence drama still continue unless kalusa walya & elik will be playing the gamez themselves.

  12. #9 #6 #21 form youR LEAGUE with GBFC, ZANACO, ZESCO and you will be playing AFGANISTAN and MYANMAR in your FIFA, and will form our own league with Nkana, Konkola, Nchanga, Peatuke UTD. You will be free to remove your own Faz whenever you wake up on the wrong side of the bed.

  13. Some people have no brains aini, with people like # 7 how can Zambia surely develop. it was not simata who rejected great kalu but just evrybody (big teams majority; referee association: premier league association etc)

  14. # 23 (BoMangofwa) take yo frustration to hell. Its not us who have rejected yo use.less KALUSA MWALYA but the football counsellors themselves (2/3), plus NSCZ, Referees Association plus Premier League. It has never happened before in Zambian history but only with this KALUSA MWALYA where even FIFA now say up to March 2011 & no more 2012 u see. The man has burried himself…..
