The one thing that sticks in my memory, would be around 12 years ago I reckon. Can’t remember who was playing but a defender was shielding the ball out for a goal kick and a striker came up behind him and ruthlessly kicked him straight in the bollocks from behind! Straight red card which had me laughing all night!

He's been upsetting the good folk of Morocco and Egypt lately with his comments telling them to go and play in Europe as not real Africans etc and accused them of messing up Africa however that works. He's a bit of. Geoff Hurst by all accounts, demanding ridiculous fees for appearances and TV work still . Didn't he refuse to play at Wembley as he wanted extra appearance money?

^ Nah. That was Roger Mellie. 🙂 I think Roger Nellie is more subtle. One story I always remember re the 82 Cameroon side was that there was no telephone system in the whole country and the squad was announced on the radio. 8 players didn't turn up for the training camp as were unaware they had to and some of the team had never travelled out of the country even on International duty and had no passports. They had to be issued with emergency papers to go to Spain. They drew all 3 games but went out, Italy won the group who also drew all 3 games but had scored a goal more. The coach said that some of the players had never seen a plane in person before as had organised home matches only as warm ups.

56 games to be shown live in sky I’ve heard I’m surprised by that. Do many English people watch other Nations? I have never watched the Copa America either. I’m barely interested in England, never mind a random country I have no allegiance to.

The Asian Cup far more exciting. The unwritten rule in the AFCON seems to be when you get within shooting range, completely forget that you have to aim a t the structure with the net behind it.

I won't be watching a single minute of it. Why not? Not really sure, the only answer I've got at the minute is I can't be arsed. Not even sure why I opened this thread and told you all that I won't be watching it, but I won't.

Wasn't it after an ANC match that Sidibe got seriously injured in crowd violence? Was either Togo or Sierra Leone, qualifier. Think he had to be pulled through a window to safety and badly lacerated his arm. Someone on here slated him for not playing the next game for us as said fancy missing a game because you scratched your arm 😊. All current players are wimps, didn't happen the ,70s etc Turned out was quite serious.

Those pitches are quite bobbly over there to be fair. And who knows there may be a Papiss Cisse in there somewhere. Didn’t he beat Crouch’s wonder goal for goal of the season one year? Complete miss hit

Didn't the physio or someone break a window and the players had to climb through it to escape the rather upset home fans?
