I have said it before and will say it again. Kenyan officials are all useless and only good at showing up at the airport to take credit for the good performance of the track athletes.

Kenya's preparations for the Cape Verde match were poor and the ministry of sports is largely to blame.

They were aware of the match at least one month in advance yet they released money to FKF barely 24 hours before Harambee stars were to leave.

And knowing how incompetent Nyamweya is, they should not even have given him the money. The ministry should have taken over the Harambee stars program. And don't give me that jazz about FIFA interference because even Nyamweya said last month that he wants the ministry to take over running Harambee stars.

Wario is incompetent beyond belief. Even Cardovilis thinks that Wario should follow Waiguru, pack up and go

This is another Waiguru scenario.Same script.

did he really refuse to salimia the queen ama it was just that he had his hands in the pocket when her majesty was approaching.

Ronan O’Gara became an unwitting icon for nationalist pub-talkers everywhere when he committed the revolutionary act of leaving his hands in his pockets when standing in the same vicinity as the Queen back in 2009.

Ireland had just won the Grand Slam and the Queen was meeting some of her triumphant fellow citizens as well as a few victorious folk from the neighbouring state.

As she approached the Irish out-half, a picture was taken which captured O’Gara in full ‘sullen ten year old waiting for the principal to tell him off’ pose.

O’Driscoll’s posture also fueled the speculation that O’Gara had insulted the Queen by cupping his hands to his mouth in the manner which some said resembled social embarrassment.

The Queen herself got over the whole insult very quickly but a number were determined to manufacture a diplomatic incident out of the whole affair.

Kevin Myers called him a ‘lout’ and wrote that his behaviour represented ‘a breach of international protocol’. O’Gara chose not to write a letter to the editor on that occasion.

There was even talk of it being revenge for Martin Johnson ensuring that Mary McAleese’s boots got muddy at Lansdowne Road in 2003. Was it true? Were O’Gara and Johnson taking potshots at one another via the medium of mild insults at their respective female heads of state?

Perhaps it was a dare, a la Dick Byrne’s famous forfeit? Had there been a video camera there, maybe we’d have heard footage of O’Gara shouting ‘bollocks’ very loudly in the general direction of the Queen.

Word of mouth and the passage of time have, as so often happens, rendered the story even more sensational.

Often times, one will hear folk in pubs breathlessly informing the unaware or the foreign how O’Gara went as far as to refuse the Queen’s hand when it was offered.

Even in the direct aftermath, the story that O’Gara refused to shake the Queen’s hand was gleefully peddled, so much so that the IRFU had to come out and issue a statement rubbishing the rumours.

The whole reception was both cordial and informal,” he said.

“In this environment, Ronan was obviously very relaxed just prior to shaking the hand and speaking with HRH, which the next sequence of the photography would show.

And here dear friends is the proof for those still in thrall to the idea that O’Gara told the Queen to get lost...

Yes,some sports are doing well in spite of Wario's ineptitude. Hata watoto wa chokora somehow grow up despite being brought up in the garbage dumps.

It's sad that personal duels are being played out this way, and it has descended to this. But I think we have to remember football does not equal sports, the rugby guys seem to be doing ok, so are the volleyball girls, the athletes also.
I mean if the cs is that bad why are the others doing ok, I really don't think the cs for sports is involved in the individual sports.

I have zero interest in the political aspect of this. But Wario is a bum. What kind of sports minister allows a national team to undergo such poor preparations then sits back and watches them be stranded at Wilson airport for 10 hours?

BY the way. I do not like Nyamweya. But in his defence, he told the sports minister as far back October 12 that the FKF had no money and that the government should take over preparations of Harambee stars.
