Doth my ears deceive me?

November 11th, 2008 | By: Brad | 1 Comment »

Two pieces of Togo news to pass on, both are equally surprising and un-expected.

First, Togo has been able to nail down a November friendly with another African nation gearing up for the next round of World Cup Qualifiers. Rwanda, who was planning to take on Malawi in a friendly has decided instead to head to Lome on the 19th of this month to face Les Eperviers. Not sure exactly what prompted the change but apparently part of the deal is that Togo will foot the bill for the Rwandan’s troubles so the almighty dollar may have been a key factor. The FTF must be using the remainder of the cash they were supposed to giving to their players to help fund this friendly…..

In other news, Emmanuel Adebayor and the FTF seem to be getting along, is that even possible? In an article on Goal.com, Adebayor while talking about his hopes of claiming the honor of being Africa’s top footballer, made mention of the fact that his spat with the federation seems to be resolved, at least for the time being. He said, “It is fine now. Everything is going better. We had a lot of problems. But I think there is an understanding now.” Whatever that means I have no idea but it sounds good anyways. :)
