Spleen! Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Cape Verde, interesting. No borders, though should be good for a vote from Angola and Mozambique.

BenArsenal Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Desperation has led me to look up my country. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niger I'm counting on Nigeria (of course), Benin, Burkina Faso, Mali, Algeria, Libya and Chad for bloc voting. Some pretty strong neighbours there. Most of our country is desert though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

canvey!! Posted March 16, 2010 Author Share Posted March 16, 2010 2008: August and September While there were no fixtures for any of the African nations in August, September offered the perfect chance for the new managers of these nations to cut their teeth. Most teams played a pair of games of the Second Round of World Cup Qualification. These are groups of four teams (and one of three) with the top team and the eight best runners-up qualifying for the Third Round. Friday 5th September brought the first round of games. Pompey 13’s Malawi travelled to Djibouti to play Whoopy Dee’e’s team, and came away with a brilliant 4-0 win. Three other teams got big wins, with Didier Dardon’s Morroco beating Ethiopia 3-0 in Addis Ababa, and both the Ivory Coast and Be Jayatsena’s Burundi recording 3-1 away victories, the former against dafuge’s Mozambique and the latter against the Seychelles. Host nation South Africa lost 0-2 at home to Des Tiny’s Nigeria. Another round of fixtures followed the next day, with Alfred Jarry’s Kenya beating Weeman Fernandez’s Namibia 3-1. Jeremy English’s Sudan beat Chad 2-0 while both Cape Verde and Cameroon and Burkina Faso and Tunisia drew 1-1. Sunday 7th saw two 0-0 draws, between Lesotho and Ken Co’s Gabon and between Joaquim Ntadi’s Madagascar and Botswana. The Republic of the Congo also drew, 2-2 with Mikael Schøler’s Mali. There were two 1-3 defeats for visiting teams: the host of the next African Cup of Nations, Juan King’s Angola, lost in Benin, while the winner of the last African Cup of Nations, Tyler Burrows’s Egypt, lost to Craig Hopper’s Democratic Republic of the Congo. The final game of the month was on the Wednesday, where Hryhorii Zahorchak’s Chad lost 0-2 at home to Sudan. Looking at the World Rankings, the biggest African movers are Sir Ronald Vaughan’s Benin following their 3-1 win over Angola. They moved up 24 places to 81st. The Democratic Republic of the Congo, managed by Craig Hopper, moved up 14 places to 54th after they beat Egypt 3-1 and Jeremy English’s Sudan moved up 10 places to 98th following two 2-0 victories over Chad. Both Christina Modoglou’s Zambia and Alfred Jarry’s Kenya moved up 8 places. Tyler Burrows’s Egypt and Dees Blake’s Togo were the biggest fallers, both dropping 8 places. Togo lost 0-2 at Zambia. Ken Co’s Gabon and Robert Boyle’s Algeria both fell 7 places. Please tell me if you'd prefer to have this list another way.

Hamuel Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Djibouti's vote would be much appreciated from Somalia we've got to gang together against these other blocs Pah! As Kenya's enemy it doesn't surprise me that your fishing for any vote you can get I trust that I can count on Ethiopias support in this though Kenya... ...in 1969 signed a defence pact with Ethiopia which is still in effect. To everyone else please bear in mind Kenya rewards favourable voting with lions... but not you Somalia! No lions for you! I bet you'd steal a car too given the chance wouldn't you pesky pirates?

DodgeeD Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 A 2-2 draw against Mali - decent result to start with Thanks for the spotlight too canvey!! Capital city of Brazzaville - that's class! From Wikipedia, it seems my neighbours (and potential block voters) are DR Congo, Gabon, Cameroon and CAR. An Angolan enclave also has a border with us and our coastline situates us close to SaoTome and Principe. Congo also has a sizeable Pygmy population so I'll be garnering for a Pygmy block vote to include ourselves, DR Congo, Cameroon, Gabon, CAR, Rwanda, Burundi, Equatorial Guinea, Angola, Botswana, Zambia and Namibia!
