IN response to Zifa fires Logarušic, TEMBA LIONEL CHINYANDURA says: The problem of Zimbabwean football has never been the coaches or quality of players. We have good players, we can match any other country in Africa. For a long time we have fired and changed coaches, but the results remain the same — perennial losers. The fish rots from the head, let us be honest with ourselves. It is very clear that when you coach Zimbabwe you are on your own. There is no support from the top, they are shockingly quiet as if the Warriors are not a Zimbabwean team. The team is suffering financially and they expect players to give it their best for nothing in return. Football nowadays is an art or a science, there is a lot of effort and investment of time and resources needed to win matches. We need qualified personnel from top to bottom. People need officials with a record of serving the nation, a combination of passion for success and good knowledge of how to administer sport. We make the same mistakes year-in, year-out. How do we expect to win anything? No money for players, last-minute preparations, no mandate for the coaches, no government financial support and too much politics, the list is endless.
BLA SHINGIE says: So far Norman Mapeza is the only local option Zifa can turn to for the Warriors job, but they have to pay him the salary he is getting at FC Platinum. As the situation stands, Zifa has to negotiate with his employer, FC Platinum for him to be caretaker coach for the national team. I am sure Mapeza loves his country and won’t turn down the offer.
IN response to We are building a citizen movement — Chamisa, TINASHE KAJAWU says: The MDC Alliance leader Nelson Chamisa is getting better with age like wine. Chamisa must separate himself from the Douglas Mwonzora-led MDC-T party which is an extension of Zanu PF created to confuse the electorate. Truly, we know who the real opposition party is, not the one that grabbed Morgan Richard Tsvangirai House with the assistance of State security agents. We want a movement that accommodates everyone.
IN response to Local goods too expensive for civil servants: Minister, TARIRO MARICHO says: The government is too elitist because it only thinks of itself. Does it think civil servants are the only people suffering?
