Two Togo squad members reported to have died now.

Not players though.

I'm also reading unverified reports of a player death.

Fair play to them for quitting the tournament.

Thank god it's not any of the players.

Togo FA claim that leaving the tourno is not an official decision as yet.
Very sympathetic!

I know if I were there what I'd do. Be on the next plane home.

Of course - it's a tragedy when somebody famous dies, but you can barely get a couple of hours' online headlines out of a bus driver's death these days.

[readingbedding]

And of course all the nutters wanted to do was just to kill the Bus Driver and non-playing staff of the Togo national team.

[Gav]

Group B as the labelled "group of death"?

What with Drogba, Essien, Adebayor & co.

Errrm.

Well done. You both missed my point.

So, Togo no go?

[Rex]

Is this now a club v country row.

[readingbedding]

Adebayor wants to go home.
They won't compete.

[soggy biscuit]

we are disappointed with the Confederation of African Football which couldn’t even arrange for a postponement of our first match so we could bury our dead. CAF puts its interests first and not those of the countries. They did not support us at all in this.”

[Flyingkiwi]

So, do Togo go?
