TEAM DIARRHEA LEADS TO FORFEIT
I know how much everyone loves getting updates about African soccer -- specifically, the Ugandan Super League -- so I thought you might want to know that the Mbale Heroes are in danger of relegation after forfeiting a match against league powerhouse URA... because they all had diarrhea.
Heroes wrote to national football league secretary Moses Magogo on Saturday requesting that the match be rescheduled to allow their players recover. Magogo rejected the initial plea but was forced to give the Mbale side a hearing after they sent supporting documents yesterday.
“They sent a fax last Saturday which I saw on Monday but I turned down their request because they hadn’t attached supporting medical documents,” Magogo revealed. “They later sent some medical documents very late which I could not readily interpret. I am waiting for Dr. Ronald Kisolo to look at their documents.”
