PETITION To CAF On Ghana by Nobody: 3:30pm On Feb 10, 2015 |
All nations cup in the 1960s (Ghana won 2, 1963 and 1965) should be disvalued and discredited because it was too premature and inferior/substandard to be counted as AFCON. Only 6 countries partook in them and it was deficient and no different from a principal's cup. They have been inappropriately regarded as AFCON for too long, but in applause to the standard of the game they should be officially discredited/devalued with immediate effect. The implication of this is that Ghana, Egypt e.t.c who won the competitions lose the title holder's right as it will be regarded that they did not win AFCON. It could be termed PRE-AFCON or PRE-CAN or even a more appropriate term; PRINCIPAL's CUP Case study: Ghana won 2 PRE-AFCONs in 1963 and 1965. 6 teams played in the competition and Ghana played only 3 games. They should not hold the same GOLD certificate Nigeria and others hold winning the mature tournament. Conclusion: All early afcons (Principal's cups) played with less a total than 8 teams in competition should be: 1. Discredited 2. Have the Gold certificates withdrawn and changed to PRE-AFCON or PRINCIPAL's cup 3. Withdraw right to Associate trophy with the name AFCON. 4. Kept in the history archives with the name PRE-AFCON or PRINCIPAL's cup As a result of this, Ghana have only won the AFCON only 2 times an have appeared in only 7 cup finals. Thank you. 4 Likes |

Dessyguy: Here read: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FIFA_World_Cup#World_Cups_before_World_War_II Quote: In 1914, FIFA agreed to recognise the Olympic tournament as a "world football championship for amateurs World cup existed long before 1930. But were regarded as amateur because they did not have the proper format. The good format began with 1930. But in Africa we still have not discredited the amateur format. The good format began in 1968 with 8 teams participating and 16 matches played. |

femi4: What part of English language do you not understand or shall I read it to you in nursery rhymes? Ok repeat after me: 1. World cup games began as early as 1900 with an amateur format 2. The proper format began in 1930 with 13 nations, now 32 nations. 3. All competition prior to 1930 were devalued, and kept/regarded in history archives as amateur. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FIFA_World_Cup In Africa, 1. African cup games began as early as 1957 with an amateur format. 2.The proper format began in 1968 with 8 teams, now 16. 3. Do you get it now or you still need more nursery rhymes? |
