The planned Saturday doubleheader at Nkana Stadium in Kitwe has flopped after Nkana said to have refused to play their match against Kabwe Warriors at lunchtime.
The Super Division Week Ten match between Nkana and Warriors was scheduled to kick off at 13:00 hours before the 15:00 hour kick off match between Kalulushi Modern Stars and Power Dynamos.
But a source at FAZ has confirmed that Nkana refused to have their match start at lunchtime.
FAZ has since ruled that Kalulushi will host Power at Independence Stadium in Kalulushi while
Nkana will face Warriors at 15:00 hours in Kitwe.
Super Division leaders Nkana are on 22 points.
The doubleheaders being staged to facilitate the broadcast of Super Division games on SuperSport will return on Sunday at Trade Fair Grounds in Ndola when Roan United face Napsa Stars in the lunchtime kick off match.
This encounter will be proceeded by the match involving Lime Hotspurs and Nkwazi to complete the Trade Fair doubleheader.
STUPIT NKANA OFFICIALS YOU ARE DEMORALISING SUPERSPORT WHO ARE TRYING TO IMPROVE OUR LEAGUE
Nobody said we should dance to the tune of Supersport ! They are welcome , but the teams have a say also !
Nkana, itimu lya calo! Way to go!
@TVU-u are the stupiiiid one!! Nkana is playing at HOME and u expect them to play as curtain raisers?! think b4 u show ur lack of knowledge on a matter! oready the teams are bbending over backwards for the Supersport guys,its the broadcaster whoz not serious-why do they hav only 1 set of OB van or watever they use?! they should hav more equipment to carter to the league-do u see double headers in EPL or even PSL?!
Only in Zambia. In the BPL teams do play at different times. This is somewhat retarded. Kalu clean this mess.
BPL play at different times, but not at the same stadium If fact this is a foolish arrangement in the ZPL as it deprives certain teams of home ground advantage. What about the gatetakings how are these shared. Rubbish
Watch KABWE Warriors goal keeper! He deserves a place in the National team. He is in top form.
The Kabwe warriors goalie is Kelvin Musonda.He was in goal when Zambia under 20 lost to Egypt 0-1 at Nchanga stadium a few years ago.That under 20 team was Coached by herve renard and featured Stopilla,Mayuka,Fwayo and Roger Kola among other notable players.It is sad to know that kelvin is epileptic which probably explains why he is overlooked for the senior national team.
This doesnt make sense, its faz which determines the time. Faz are you weak or what no
team has control on your timing they are retarding progress. You should have been firm,continued the game at 13.00hrs and which ever team was to be late at your prescribed time should have lost points. Faz be strong.
