WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 SSN read out a statement from someone in the ACN hierarchy. In it they had a dig at Togo for travelling by road, when all other teams travelled by plane, which is apparently a requirement. A bit pathetic really. Came across as if they were just wanting to say 'its your own fault'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirLes9 Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Apparently Togo now want to pull out of the tournament all together. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/8449319.stm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a good tournament to watch. The timing is a joke. It's been going for more than 50 years, at the same time of the year every 2 years. It's only become a problem recently cos it effects Premiership clubs, why should they change the dates of it to suit the leagues? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 I can see both arguments tbh. Yes it's been running for years, but recently their players have been coming to Europe on mega money and go away for 4-6 weeks with their country, still being paid, and cost their clubs in wages.

Optimistic Nut Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 We signed Bassong as a top French youngster. Imagine if we'd lost him to the ACoN all of a sudden this January had we kept him and he'd been called up with Cameroon? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnypd Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 it's an entertaining tournament, but it should be held every 4 years like the european championship. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveItIfWeBeatU Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Aye and the World Cup is in Africa... good to know it's so safe out there. Angola's one of the most unstable countries in Africa...shouldn't be held there at all...South Africa is vastly different... I was talking to a guy from South African last week and he said he can't believe they are going to hold the World Cup in South African. He thinks it's a certainty there will be big trouble.
