Africa Cup of Nations Poems from Emdad NH JD et al

From the unimaginable and terrible attack on the Togo team bus and the loss of three innocent lives to the competition itself set in the fragile infrastructure of Angolan. As ever somehow football lumbers on. Our thoughts go out to the families and loved ones of the dead and of course the surviving and grieving players. What an incredible shame this tournament wasn’t shown on terrestrial TV and aside from the initial atrocity of the attack, it raised barely a mention on the national news . Who here remembers late night ACN on Channel 4 a good few years back? Our special thanks to Emdad ably supported by Non Humphries & Jim Dolbear for their excellent contributions. Editors
