THE BARBADOS Football Association’s (BFA) Facebook page has been hacked.

The English translation is: “Please help my page to grow. The goal of the page is to reach out to 200 thousand likes, I know that it is difficult but we are fighting to achieve. Thank you to everyone who likes.”

BFA president Randy Harris laughed and took it in stride when contacted by The NATION.

“We are trying to get it straightened out,” he said. It happened this afternoon.”
