ReplyJamie, sorry my Brother, forgive them for they don`t know what they are doing. Says the Lord. I am from the South and a staunch NOMADS Supporter, but I do congratulate Ma Bankers for winning the League. As Jamie is complaining, lets not use these forum to castigate each other but rather lest use sports as a unifying factor after politics has failed to united the once mighty Malawi. Once again, congratulations Silver for being 2011/12 Champions. You have made nzanga Chapotera wa ku Mchesi uko a very happy man. God bless you all.

ReplyAs a Malawian living in diaspora,from central Malawi,Lilongwe in particular im hugely disturbed and annoyed by comments that some idiots post on this website to say people from central region ‘satha Mpira’. I cant understand where this point is driving to..Malawi is one country and statements of this nature are the reason there are conflicts in other African countries.Without going into nitty details, please refrain from such ridiculous nosense.
