  1. Awarding jerseys according to the way the outcome will be: i.e. Mighty Wanderers on top, then Silver Strikers as runners up, Moyale third the Bullets as chiseka khomo.

    A Carlsberg ayeneleka ali ndi prophet ndithu. Ndaona machitidwe awo.

  2. Sponsor netball as well. They are making us proud internationally. They need good welfare and playing grounds. The central region does not have sponsorship for years not.

  3. FAM and Carlsberg you are hypocrites. Ndinu okondera. We know who you want in the finals. This competition has been spoiled by you two. I as a soccer lover I am longer interested in this unfair competition. Please improve on fairness in the standard cup.

  4. Carlsberg if your staff can steal
    MK 5 billion that’s unofficial maybe
    4 times more so imagine whats your yearly profits and yet you sponsor only mk30 million.
    The winners get a mere 5 million.
    Do you know how much a team spends to reach this stage more than mk5 million. Can u consider
    winners to get mk 50 million so the competition gets chilli and carlsberg HOT

  5. Good move Carlsberg but do the dame To netball which is proving To Be more deserving than the Football perennial flops.

  6. This is nice. Carlsberg you have demostrated your commitment to football in Malawi. FAM needs to jackup
