the late Emmanuel Mwape still holds the record of having been voted the best goalkeeper on the continent in 1974 at the Africa Cup of Nations. Most Zambian club success stories are linked to Roan United because of the players ‘poached’ from the club. Most them also played for Zambia. For instance Kabwe Warriors was at its best in the mid 1960s and '70s with ex-Roan stars: Sunday Kaposa, Boniface Simutowe, Godfrey Mpula, Phillip Tembo, Dyson Mugala, Francis Chilombo, Simon Kapende, Guards Sakala, Daniel Chileshe, Laskey Mwandu, Jack Chanda, Godfrey Munshya, Barry Kamfwa Kayuni, Moses Masuwa and Linos Chisanga. Rhokana United enticed Fordson Kabole, Hudson Kamfwa Kasongo, Simon Chande, Bernard Chanda, Richard Mugala, Emmanuel Mwape and Gamma Mwelwa. Emmanuel Mwape’s young brother Kenny Mwape served at Mufulira Blackpool, Green Buffaloes, City of Lusaka and Power Dynamos. Ndola United benefited through Kaiser Kalambo, John Mapulanga, and Silas Kanchule and Elias Simbeye. Now defunct Kabwe United owed much of their success to Fabiano Mwaba and Anderson Banda. Kitwe United lured Happy Malama, Edward ‘VC 10’ Kalale and Stephen Makungu. Bancroft (now Konkola Blades) took on Savage Bulaya, Winter Chisenga and Wink Mwape. Nchanga Rangers benefited through John Silubonde, Morris Mwansa, Vincent Chileshe and Elijah Tana. Lusaka Tigers were glad to receive Gibbon ‘King’ Nyirongo who later exported his skills to Malawi with Bata Bullets. Giant killers Strike Rovers would take on Brannel Stewart Jambila, Lasso Laimoni, Manasseh Jumbe and goalkeeper Aaron Mwape (another young brother to Emmanuel). Vitafoam befitted through the services of Richard Mwanza, Adrian Chota, Frank Mayekela, Abraham Liyembele and Lackson Chanda. Bruster Nsama and Peter Chanda were to raise Mpelembe FC to limelight whilst Laston Simpasa served Red Arrows and Green Buffaloes as goalkeeper. At Kafue Textiles Julius Chilambo together with Bernard Chanda propelled the team to limelight in the late 1980s.
