They should move some league games to wensday. Some teams have been deprived of vital playmakers which can cost them 3 points.
Go Zambia, go! And go Nkana, go!
Thank God no Racha. And why even use the Zanaco players, because Keagan Mumba has gone crazy against Chipolopolo.
Why no player from Luapula or Eastern province, from the on going trials?
Just got message that Bruce Musakanya and Stanley Nshimbi are among the mass malaria patients at Red Arrows, I really wonder how those boys could be left out.
All these players are from super division. what about the much talked about gem you unearthed. Faz should make a report to tell the taxpayers how successful the trails were. we will see a mirraculuos recovery from Redarrows players for the Zesco game they said malaria to avoid losing key players to zimbabwe freindly match.
What about Mwila Mulenga from Zanaco?
Ba LT, you mentioned Bornwell mwape from Nchanga Rangers has been handed out a debut alongside Micheck Chaila. But Bornwell Mwape is not on the list you have presented.

Ubutu tutu like we are in the year 1800. Zambia is amazing. Foolish country
We expect to see new faces,maybe they can do better than the have-beens.
Why did the board of directors talk about Chirwa’s hefty perks only after being FIRED by SATA? thus the problem of black people when one is eating, they don’t speak evil
