Ayo: With Ike being a no show, are there any moves afoot to bring in another goalie? Murphy Akanji readily comes to mind and would be a good fit. Mystic, at the end of the day, it is down to Chukwu. There is nothing anyone else can do. Apart from Murphy Akanji, Ndubuisi Egbo is also doing very well...

I am actually discussing with a few players to see when they will be around. If we have two or three of them present, it will actually add to the occassion. However, for this, we might have to wait until after the ANC. There may be a few friendlies played in London after the ANC as European teams ge...

And while we are at it, Ayo can you change the subject to something like "FAro Camp News" so that we dont have a thread for every new report we have. It also helps folks to go straight to the thread for what they need. No need to make it a sticky. It will stick itself :D :D I have changed...

Waffi, good point. If it is a controversial point, of course I will not name the player. However, for harmless things like this, there is no problem. I am drawing up a list of about six players who I will be talking to. Kick Off Chief will do the same, so that we have a good spread of opinion across...

How come we no get any cyber spy for Faro Kick Off Chief and myself will provide daily coverage of what is going on. Do not worry. However, we have to be responsible too. These boys are there to train, so we cannot disrupt their programme. We will not ring more than twice a day and will recognise t...

IAG, it does depressing when you bust a gut to deliver material and people just frustrate you. Remember you can only pick yourself up so many number of times. I will be liasing with Kick Off Chief to bring daily updates from Faro and am even considering going there at some cost. However, can I just ...
