This is a letter from a friend who is active in sports management in Nepal. **** Dear Ashu, Sports is big business and the Olympics and Fifa are huge monopolies susceptible to inefficiencies and corruption. ANFA today is run by Ganesh thapa who definitely would share your views about qualifying for the WC. The problem is he would never try to make ANFA a professional organization. Mr.Ganesh Thapa would never get the best sports minds in the association. He would make sure that there is no challenge to his post as long as possible.ANFA is a one man show which does not allow it to be broad based. This is critical for the talent hunt. The football academy is controlled by anfa(Ganesh Thapa) . The selection process would be fully controlled by him which limits the width of talent.Cronyism and nepotism is rampant. Unless football is run a by a team including the government, private sector and anfa qualifying for the wc will just be a dream.
