Guest black Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Sorry Jim, I think whining about losing African players so they can go off and represent their countries is ridiculous. If the African Football Federation choose to hold their Championships in Jan/Feb then they have every right to do so. Saying it should be held at the same time as the European Championships just to fit in with us is absurd. Do you realise how hot parts of Africa get during June and July? Still, never mind eh? As long as we're ok, eh? Are you saying that European national teams are more important than African ones? That European countries deserve adequate preparation time prior to Continental Championships but African national teams don't? Can I just point out a glaring mistake with this comment? In the Southern Hemisphere June and July are winter months. If it's hot in parts of Africa during these months, then it is even hotter in January! Ghana is in the northern hemisphere. Only just! Ghana is a country located on the Gulf of Guinea, only a few degrees north of the Equator. TBH the place would be hot 12 months a year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
