The next African Cup of Nations

[simonk]

takes place in 12 months!
So they just said on 5 Live. There are changing from even to odd years. Nightmare
sorry if etc etec

It's a joke, why can't they be like other continents and have a tournament every four years?

I thought FIFA were meant to be sorting their footballing calendars?

 

[German Blues]

On German TV they just said the same. The African Cup of Nations wil be next year and then every two years. They don't want to play the Cup when there is a European Cup or the World Cup in the same year. For me the next Cup should've taken place in 2015. Would've been early enough. Next African Cup will be played in South Africa.

How screwed will Geordies be this time next year ? No strikers and best midfielder away !

 

[brummie blue]

hopefully Yaya and Kolo will have retired from international football by then.

 

[MSP]

they could do it in 3 years though, it's BS to have 2 continent tournaments in 2 consecutive years

 

[pudge]

It's a conspiracy i tells ya

 

[u2fme2]

should be every five years

 

[lancs blue]

It'll be in June/July from 2015.

I'll bet the FA are involved!
