coogar:PRIVATE FIRMS HAVE ALL TRIED TO SAVE THE LEAGUE BUT WITHOUT SUCCESS. Private clubs in the past: Nigerlux, Nasco jets, DIC Bees (ranchers bees), VASCO DA GAGAMA, Exide, Rubber board, ACB, NEPA, etc. The most important thing to happen to the league will be an improved TV coverage. TV rights brings a lot of money to clubs but in our league, very little or nothing comes in from Tv. Under Orji Uzor Kalu, Enyimba partnered so many companies abroad, gate fees increased, deaf and dunb hired to man the gates yet the club operated at a loss. The number one way forward is to package our league and to be sold out. I mean package a better league. |

Andre Uweh: wish i am a billionaire.... its about calling the nfa and top clubs to a round table - every club must have it's own stadium with a standard capacity. then, get the TV stations involved. hire foreign football analysts and package the product like sky did the premier league. 1 Like |

coogar:It starts with the big men in Nigeria eg Dangote, Adenuga, Ibeto, Ifeanyi Uba buying a particular team and running them like a business venture. |

Andre Uweh:Are you sure Friday Elaho played for NNPC, I know he started at Bendel Insurance then went to ACB. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by aswani(m): 8:38pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
Andre Uweh:Davidson Owunmi is a Warri boy, he went to Flash Flamingoes from Sharks (transferring from UNIPORT to UNIBEN in the process). Fuludu only joined and captained NNB in 88. You probably mean Edobor being top scorer in the league in 85. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by aswani(m): 8:40pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
Andre Uweh:Zion Train Ozogula went to IICC from NNB, he never played for Insurance. Isn't Liberty stadium around the ring road area? |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by aswani(m): 8:44pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
coogar:He was being pressurised by Ekarika and Raymond King had already started running from his goal. He could never stay put in his 6 yard box, that guy. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by aswani(m): 8:46pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
Andre Uweh:The original Abiola Babes were disbanded in 1988, you must mean 1987. Nationale players did well to score their penalties against Ansah. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by aswani(m): 8:50pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
Andre Uweh:They had Division 1 caliber players when they were in Divisions 2 and 3 so those achievements are not as wonderful as you make out. Yes they were the most professionally organised team, ut not the greatest. The greatest Nigerian teams are jointly Rangers or IICC, or maybe Enyimba. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by Afam4eva(m): 8:52pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
aswani:Please it's Rangers first and others next. We don't share the first spot. Rangers history alone thumps Enyimba. Enyimba is a relatively new team that was founded in the 90s. Though they've achieved a lot in this short time but Rangers still retains the number one spot. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by aswani(m): 8:55pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
Andre Uweh:Rangers raided P & T (later NITEL) Vasco Da Gama more than they did either Spartans or Enyimba. Was there an Eastern league? I thought below the National League structure were individual state leagues. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by aswani(m): 9:00pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
Andre Uweh:Not necessarily, they only started playing against similarly well organised clubs (Ahly Nationale, Zamalek, Esperance, Africa Sports, ASEC etc) in continental competions and there was no guarantee they would do as well as they did playing against Naija teams. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by Nobody: 9:01pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
Shooting Stars on point! |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by aswani(m): 9:05pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
Andre Uweh:I think it was a beer brewering team from Aba that was called Falcons. I can't remember the name of the parent company but I saw them play against IBWA Sharpshooters in the mid to late 80's at Onikan stadium. They had this fast short striker up front that was a class above everybody else on the pitch that day. Ogbuefi Phillip Osondu went on to represent Nigeria at an U17 world cup later on, The rest as they say is history. |

honeric01:Nembe City are privately owned by Baribote, ABS are owned by Busola Saraki and are also in the NPL, both are privately owned. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by aswani(m): 9:14pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
coogar:Italian clubs do not own their Stadiums, why should Nigerians? Clubs only need a clubhouse and a decent training facility and they should leave the state government to build and maintain stadiums which they need only hire. We need to crawl before we fly. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by honeric01(m): 9:23pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
aswani: i believe these 2 clubs are getting money indirectly from the state's pulse. They're not 100% free from govt hands especially nembe city under that 'man' baribote who was one of the reason bayelsa went down some seasons ago. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by coogar: 9:48pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
aswani: maybe this is why the italian league is shyte! if only 10 clubs can pass this standard then let them be the only ones in the top division. more organisation would attract more foreign investors and sponsors and the league would grow from there. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by Afam4eva(m): 9:51pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
coogar:Teams mustn't own stadiums. Even in England, not all teams own stadiums. Some of them are built by their sponsors while some clubs lease these venues. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by AndreUweh(m): 9:55pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
aswani:Nationale bought him from NNPC. Am very sure. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by AndreUweh(m): 9:57pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
aswani:It's Falcons bottling company at Aba. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by AndreUweh(m): 9:58pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
aswani:Very debatable. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by AndreUweh(m): 10:03pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
aswani:Indeed, there was an Eastern Nigeria league. It was mostly for East central states but it was called the eastern Nigerian league. Teams like P&T Spiders, Enyimba , Golden Guinea etc played in that league. Spartans drew players from this league. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by AndreUweh(m): 10:07pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
aswani:Abiola babes was disbanded late 1987. They did not play in 1988 league |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by AndreUweh(m): 10:09pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
Afam4eva:Enyimba was founded in 1976. Do not bet over this |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by AndreUweh(m): 10:10pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
aswani:Benjy Nzeakor the first taker for Nationale lost his kick |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by AndreUweh(m): 10:15pm On Apr 01, 2013 |
aswani:I think it was Tarila Okoronwanta who joined IICC from Insurance. Later he left for Ivory Coast. Yes, Liberty is at Oke Ado around Ring Road. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by aswani(m): 8:48am On Apr 02, 2013 |
honeric01:I don't want to open a can of worms but why would a state government that allowed Ocean boys to implode due to lack of funds just last year suddenly be part sponsoring Baribote's team? |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by aswani(m): 8:50am On Apr 02, 2013 |
Andre Uweh:His Wikipedia page confirms he went to Nationale from ACB. |
Re: Shooting Stars Of Ibadan (Oluyole Warriors) Fan Thread! by aswani(m): 8:57am On Apr 02, 2013 |
Andre Uweh:I would be surprised if a company was called 'Falcons Bottling company' in Nigeria, I think the company was Premier Breweries and the club was named 'Premier Breweries Falcons football club of Aba'. Shame the NFA or NFF don't have a website with an archives page. I wonder if it was Golden Guinea Falcons of Umuahia actually! |
