FAM congress has been abandoned today after the clubs refused to continue with the agenda.

Male', MALDIVES - Football Association of Maldives (FAM) 6th annual congress has been abandoned today after majority of clubs refused to continue with the agenda.

Club Eagles submitted a letter with the backing of 18 member clubs to include a no confidence motion of FAM president and vice president in the agenda. However the request was denied by the exco.

FAM president Ilham Ahmed proposed to the clubs to take a vote to see if the clubs wants to change the agenda and continue with proposed changes. But neither club voted in favour of changing while only 6 clubs voted to continue with the agenda. Hence, FAM president Ilham announced the congress is abandoned.

The congress was seen FAM president, Eagles chairman Mohamed Rasheed and New Radiant chairman Ali Waheed dominating the floor.

New Radiant chairman Ali Waheed repeatedly highlighted the importance of continuing the congress and the negative impact Maldives football may have due to the outcome of the congress. He also urged to change the statute of FAM to make sure we minimize conflicts in the future.

FAM has announced the organization are trying to have the congress again in 24 hours but said will inform the clubs about exact date.

No place will survive without some sort of conflict or other if too much of politics have seeped into its system. FAM is a shining example of it. It is the worst managed sports body in the country and the man in charge of the place have left not much of a hope for the future of our football. By the time he leaves the place our football will be in ruins. The signs are already there.

If we look at some of the recent headlines related to FAM, they are mostly comprised of words and phrases like abandoned, no confidence motion, teams going to the tounaments without the right preperation. Everything points to an association in great troubles, like a rudderless dhoni on a stormy night lost in the vast ocean.

Every one talks about CLUBS not being organised and poorly run! lol! Look at the organisation that is supposed to guide them! Historically it has been in shambles, NOW it is in shambles, and probably WILL be in shambles. Unless there is drastic change in the personnel involved and the dependency on the government is at a reduced level.
