Sport Shaman Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 As bad as it has sometimes been for our CMNT, I guess things could be worse; a lot worse: http://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-27245733 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red and White Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 American Samoa is well known for this lol. It was a catalyst for Australia leaving Oceania for the more competitive AFC. Of interest, Thomas Rongen has taken over the team. He played a role with TFC a few years ago, I believe as an Academy director. I've started loosely following Oceania due to this story. The standard is low, but football's influence in those islands is interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly recommend it. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Up-Pohnpei-ultimate-football-underdogs/dp/184668501X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
