In 1849, a year after the French Revolution, French journalist, critic and novelist Jean-Baptiste Alphonse Karr uttered; ‘the more things change, the more they remain the same.’
When it comes to Botswana’s ugly and contemptuous football politics, these words uttered more than 170 years ago still ring more truth.
A Saturday ago, on April 10
th, Botswana Football League (BFL) elected a new board of directors to lead it for the next four years.
The new board, is led by Masitaoka financier Aryl Ralebala and is composed of Jwaneng Galaxy’s Njabulo Gilika, BDF XI’s Omphitlhetse Tlhobogang and Kagiso Magocha of Orapa United.
