Congratulations Malick !

I have followed the news from the Banjul press.

Thank you for assisting the Arts & Culture (Sport is an ART). The glamour of Gambian soccer is buried and a grafted soccer game is born based only on imagination of personal prosperity. The game was a CRY & REJOICE GAME. Full of life and feeling.

Giving these jersey and football accessories is an inspiring encouragement. The boys can plan but they are distracted by big mouthing and looking over the fence. They never looked inside: Chealsea is good for so & so, Milan, Real Madrid, Barca CRAZY. The Brazil team that the whole world liked is the 1970 team with Pele. Jerzinho, Revilino & Tastoa, Claudaldo 7 Gerson, Carlos Alberto, etc.None of them played abroard. They wrre state propertiy and envied no one, full of confodence and national love, filled with Pride. They made HISTORY.

Gmabian can win the world cup and I will score the goal should be the dream of every child through encouragement (like breaking the world record like Bolt). This is national pride. I prayed that one day Gambia goes to the World cup, that's national pride. National pride is that God created us ALL equal.

The Art and sport in Gambia is flambouant (Was), but it is not fully displayed. I saw things in the Gambian soccer fields that can only be matched by the 1990 scopion volley by Hugo Sanchez for Real performed. It was by Biri at Box Bar way before Sanchez. Gambia players used to cry when the loose and the fans will not be in the streets because of dissapointment. Gambia played France, they gave us 5-1 and Biri came in as a kid and brought the gamew to 5-4, France won, We played Portugal, they won but this is our linage. Gambia never lost to Senegal untill the PPP came to government. The Fools were running the GAME to this day. They never played soccer, they are not statured in Seville like Biri or visit the Maracana. The German world cup team coach came to Gambia because of our might & we have Biri .

To promote soccer you must start from the grass roots. I am very dissapointed that Biri did not go to the World cup in South Africa and market a tournament for Gambia( sports ambassador) or become Gambia's tourism promoter in Spain. Everybody knows him, likes him and they recognized him.

There are no junior league and the infrastructure,

this will lead to a high school league before stepping in to the junior team (such as Real Madrid). You start from 9 years old, just like in Music as Micheal jackson. All Good Gambian players have played for a few years only because they discover them when they playedcin Wakllidan. Then they already have wives and kids & Nawec. The players I know I knew them as soccer kids playing junior leagues: Saihou Sarr, Sam Sibi, Kebba Diaz, Nyanga Sallah, Alhagi Nyan, Salieu Foon, Cham (Sukuta), Leon Prom, Biri and the first high school international Salifu Ndour in 1960.

The only player I knew whoes history I grew to appreciate is the late Alhagi Aziz Coker ( Cut-Away).

he was the first Gambian super star and scored the same goal like Messi & Maradona by dribbling players and the keeper. He was so good, that the Congolese musicians used to sing his name.

Helping the boys is my life, I like Gambians and I like people who are dedicated to the blood and born of the country. Anyone who will follw his/her heart in areas that government do not support is a liberated.

The Gambia is a co-dependant country and we have to support each other to acheive things we like to accomplish.To campainge for this and to achieve it and hand it over to the Gambian players is a noble cause and a purposeful mission. Thank you!

May god bless you.

Thank you so much!
