This was a published comment: Ashutosh Tiwari obviously doesn’t know anything about what ANFA is doing and definitely did no research before writing his Strictly Business column (‘How we can make it to the World Cup’, #304). ANFA needs to build the infrastructure he so easily condemns so that it can find the right kind of talent. Building academies all over the country gives more grassroots exposure to football, which is what ANFA has been trying to do. Mr Tiwari dreams that we could qualify for the World Cup in 2014 or 2022. If it was printed in the ‘Under my Hat’ section, that wish would have been more appropriate. Nepalis are still physically inferior to the nations that make it to the World Cup. Look at the number of Africans playing in the national league here. They aren’t good enough to play even in India and they are stars here. What does that tell us about our players? Development of football is not an overnight thing and the activities that you list, ANFA is already doing it. Look at the development and exposure of football in the last few years and you might begin to appreciate ANFA’s work. Mr Tiwari should stop criticising something just because it is an easy target. Still a fan of the paper. Suvash Gurung, email - http://www.nepalitimes.com/issue/305/Letters/12114 ******* Here is All Nepal Football Association's Web site - http://www.anfanepal.com/index.php
