UGANDA!! Four Decades Ago!!
The last time UGANDA qualified for African Cup of Nations tournament, MUSEVENI was a ranked Private in UDF fighting in the bush.
Congratulations to Kabelega and all the BUGANDAs and MUGANDAs.

Re: UGANDA!! Four Decades Ago!!
They qualified for the last one - came, saw, got beat and went home (back to goat herding) after group stage.

Anyway, thank you. Congrats to 9ja for sneaking into the ANC after missing the last two. Going to the dance by any means necessary is better than staying outside and listening to the music, imagining what could have been.
FUFA's Project 2019 peaked earlier and has been a success. The exciting thing is that the youngsters are super talented.
We are back, baby!

Don't blame him.

Maybe he even watched them on the field but didn't see them play what can be called "FOOTBALL"

You somehow come off like a closet Uganda fan in Gabon.
I know many on CE pay more attention to the EPL than CAF games so it's not surprising...

If a fan sounds the way I do then I wonder how haters would sound like? I'm not a hater though, just hate uninspiring teamsKabalega wrote:pajimoh wrote:Don't blame him.

Re: UGANDA!! Four Decades Ago!!
This team and the 1978 squad were the best teams Uganda has ever produced. I remember the friendly match Eagles lost against Uganda at the Ogbe Stadium in Benin where Philip Omondi in the photo destroyed eagles defense with ease.

You should have allowed Kabalabala to name them. I'm sure he never saw any of them play football live.Sir V wrote:

I also had David Otii as a coach when I was 12-13.
He was coaching serious clubs and the national teams but made time for young talent when he saw it....
BTW, Abedi Pele was a ball boy in 1978 and he said, Phillip Omondi was his idol.
This was a good team but it was not the '78 team because Obua didn't make it to Ghana due to discipline issues.
That was a good team though. If Ghana had not played gamesmanship, or if Idi Amin had flown the team from Kumasi to Accra, they would have been the best team in '78.
Idi Amin was overthrown in 1979 and half the team went to exile in the Middle East, the rest thrown in jail.
We lost all the CAF knowhow during that time. But are now back!
