After a sorry Harambee Stars meekly bowed out of the Afcon 2013 qualifiers, a week after another meek outing against Namibia in the 2014 World Cup qualifiers, FKF swung into action.
The clueless Kenyan soccer mafia swiftly sacked Coach Kimanzi and invited applications from foreigners "to save the national team".
Well, a foregn coach will be hired. He will proceed to register a chain of loses and barren draws and, predictably, will be shown the door.
It is possible FKF know the real reason for Kenya's continued poor perfornances on the pitch. These people must surely know that it will take serious and selfless efforts to get the team performing again. Common sense and experience clearly dictates that we must spend adequately before we can see positive results.
Are our players ever motivated adequately before they take to the pitch to represent us? How much do they earn in terms of allowances and bonuses? If you attempted to find out, you would be shocked.
Additionally, football stakeholders have sung year after year that we need to establish decent football academies to nurture fresh talent, but these pleas have always fell on deaf ears. Yet we all know that to hope for excellent results, we must prepare our players excellently, while they are still young.
I have a hunch that FKF knows all these things, except, they are unwilling to spend adequate funds to realise them, so as to have enough to stuff their bottomless pockets.
