The Sierra Leone Football Association have urged clubs to put proper structures in place regarding player transfers. The Secretary General of the FA, Chris Kamara said clubs have until October to do the necessary works ahead of the new season.

Kamara was addressing the clubs in the FA’s first media press conference since the lifting of the international ban and the dismissal of corruption charges against him and President Isha Johansen.

The Deputy Secretary General of the Sierra Leone Football Association (SLFA) has resigned effective immediately.

In his letter to the FA president, Isha Johanssen, dated 1 July, Abdul Rahman Swaray cites “family reasons and other official engagements in academia”, which he says can no longer allow him to provide the services the FA post requires of him.

Swaray has been a lecturer at the Mass Communications department of Fourah Bay College for over 10 years.

Bo Rangers continue unbeaten run

How do you go five games in a row without a defeat? Diamond Stars are the team to beat and Bo Rangers defeated them. As controversial as the refereeing was you must give some credit to Bo Rangers for the massive turn around. Their coach Junior Konneh is one of the most sort after coach in the league now.

Diamond Boys have been crashing everyone’s party until they got to Bo. Their reputation wasn’t enough to halt the momentum of the Rangers. This was a tale of two teams who are on revival.

So here we are again, about to watch two teams built with grit, resilience and swagger. They are meeting again to sweep us off our feet. They are both separated by distinct style and a single point. This is the story of the greatest derby in today’s football in the country: FC Kallon versus East End Lions.

Parade complete double comeback

What a week for Central Parade, they came from two goals down to equalize against East End Tigers. They also came from a goal down to level with Old Edwardians.

This latest surge in form has seen them get back their spot. Central Parade are back in third place, even though Kamboi Eagles have two games in hand over them.

Old Edwardians continue to impress, but this doesn’t change anything. They are almost back where they started. They find themselves in the relegation zone with Anti- Drugs and RSLAF.

Kallon fight to keep up

After two wretched performances, this was the game FC Kallon knew they had to win. And they won it. FC Kallon played with some conviction. Fresh from that heartbreaking draw against Lions, Ports couldn’t have wished for anything more difficult than facing FC Kallon.

Five more games to go, this is the home stretch now. If FC Kallon are going to win this league they must brace up. Among those five games, they have Blackpool, Kamboi Eagles and East End Lions all lined up.

There is no margin for error now.
