ZIFA and the Rule of Law

By

It feels good to side with the crowd the temptation is great that I blast Zifa and support Norman after all he is of my own flesh and blood above all his skin is as dark as mine. It feels good to have a brother a young one for that matter having a chance to lead our warriors especially when the brother has led it before as a player.

But is it the right thing always to side with the crowd and succumb to mobocracy? NO! My communication skills lecturer used to say even if 100 people agree on something which is wrong it will never make the thing right!

I think Zimbos should respect institutions and systems the new Zifa Board is trying to set up.Rule of law .... lol! Before Saintfiet was there any technical committee set up to select a coach? Before Saintfiet was there any interviews held in Zim for a coach? Before Saintfiet was there a job description of the national coach ever known to the fans? we used to know that a national team coach is a coach fullstop! Before this process did we know that a coach needs five o levels! did we know that the coach draws up the team 4 year plan and drafts concise reports for national development of the game? I think the Zifa board is trying to get us in the right direction and as fans hapana chedu pakusarudzwa kwa coach! Its our money but so what? we dont get fired, insulted or wont win the next election if things go wrong!It is the board that we jeer and sometimes burn and stone their cars kuRufaro Let Zifa do their job lets support the team ndopedu ipapo! If Zifa wanted our opinion vangadai vakaenda kuZEC yoconducter run off between Saintfiet and Saint Mapeza!

Maradona was appointed national team coach weArgies with some of the best players in the world. This was a hugely popular decision in Argentina but for all the stars Argentina fell like a deck of cards when it mattered most... Now Maradona is jobless and even Aston Villa made fun of his application to be the team manager! The moral lets not overburden vaMapeza nebasa remaWarriors groom him sent him for training in Europe make him in charge of U23 make him qualify for the Olympics let him go through the mill and then make him coach wemaWarriors!

So I hate Mapeza? So I hate local coaches? So I am obssesed with foreigners... in someone`s word ndirimutengesi a sell out or even a turn coat? Bush once said if u are not with us then u are our enemy! This is the same with Zimbos if u think differently then u are a mercenary and an enemy! I am not! I am just the guy next door who loves footie like.... hameno! I am the guy who actually idolises Mapeza and believe Zimbabwe can polish him into an internationally renowned coach!

By the way Mhofu is back in Zim taking a break from footie... interesting times.

Lets debate this pa www.soccerzim.co.zw go to categories and go to forums

Yours for Mapeza, Football and the bright future we are setting up for our football!
