Cranes vs Stars: Tickets not available locally (Kenya)

http://www.ntv.co.ke
Do you intend to travel to Uganda this weekend to watch the match between Harambee Stars vs Uganda Cranes? If you were hoping to buy a ticket locally in advance, I have news for you: The tickets will only be sold in Uganda. Football Kenya Limited made the disturbing announcement, when they revealed that their Ugandan counterparts had reneged on an agreement to release 5,000 match tickets for local sale. FUFA reportedly made the dramatic about- turn, after suspecting that unscrupulous individuals were planning to hoard the tickets and re-sell them for profit.

1st off, why is Mr Okul wearing a Philadelphia Eagles jacket? Blasphemy! That is grounds for termination! he should only wear local team Jerseys.

But anyway, I've said a thousand times: East Africa should combine to have their local teams in one league. Whatever you see here happens everyday in European and American leagues (sold out, tickets being sold in black market at high prices).

Kenya, Uganda, TZ cannot each support dozens of teams. We need to join together. The market isnt big enough.

Ugandans are required by FIFA regulations to give Kenya it ticket allocations to be sold locally. But then again, some Kenyan cartel has probably taken over in the aim of ripping off Kenyans n making a huge profit. Nothing is done in a straight forward way in Kenya.
