Musa

I think Mr Faal should be reminded that the same
approach was used in the 80s when Gambia performed
badly in the ZONE II competition held at Guinea
Bissau.

A Commission of Inquiry was set up to investigate into
the reasons for Gambia's poor performance.

Mr Faal should have taken time and effort to look into
 whether that commission held in the 80s did anything
positive for the Gambia.

For my recollection, the findings of that commission
did undermine Gambia's football and it took them years
 to come back into the International scene.

So I hope Mr Faal s taking point of what happen then
and what could happen now.

Please don't waste our time with this nonsense. Gambia
lost to a better side and thats it.
