Good show from the kwa haye teams. Im not a fan of the Kalu exec. but what they have done to include teams from other provinces other than Lsk, CB and Central is encouraging. This was a step in the right direction. I never knew teams like Luena Buff, Kafue Celtic, Petauke. Keep up with the good work though you need to start working on our female national team. Yesterday I watched how the US played against Japan. Those women have skills better than most men teams. Sad that the US didnt lift the trophy though they were the better team.
Why aren’t you a fan of him but you see his positive contribution? Â Kalu we love you man forget about them boys.
Ata #2. to answer ur question, the reason is simple. I ALWAYS give credit where its due. I dont have to behave like a political party cadre (blind alliance). I need not pretend, Kalu did great things for the country as a player. However, he will go down in history as one of the worst FAZ presidents, coaches Zambia has ever had except for this particular move and other that I can single out if you need me to.
GO MIGHTY GO , this year is ours to bounce back to the elite league.
One of the worst presidents?? Haa! Kazi zinamani so che.
There is only one football team in Zambia; MIGHTY!!!!!!!!!!
@6 no wonder we are this bad as a nation if zat is the only team.
