  1. Tenant Chilumba’s NAPSA are doing good, they even want to fund road construction if state house allows them.
    League is tough this year.

  2. “Napsa Stars are the new leaders of the 2017 FAZ Super Division season following a 3-0 home win over debutants Real Nakonde at Nkoloma Stadium in Lusaka”.
    How do you say they are new leaders of the 2017 Super League instead of they have topped the table or have taken command of the table.
    Its like season is already over and we have new Champions

    • What are you talking about? Leading the table doesn’t mean winning it! Please follow football and it’s jargon before making an utter fool of yourself, otherwise still to what you know best…
