Wole Arisekola wants to buy 3SC for N2 Billion, I think other state government should do the same; but as for my nairalander I have a simple proposal that can change Nigeria sport and I will like you to make contribution; I will send it when it is ready.

Let me see your opinion on the 3SC N2 Billion deal

Other government should do what?

^^I think he means other state governments should handover or sell their clubs to private individuals.

Only one match played last weekend:
Dolphins 2 vs Crown FC 0. . . Dolphins top the league, four points ahead of Sunshine Stars who have two games in hand.

Is Abuja Federal High Court has dismissed Davidson Owumi's case challenging his sack as NPL boss. . .

Aren't Rising Stars the reserve team for Sunshine Stars?

Rising stars are from Akure i think while sunshine stars aren't

^^Sunshine is from Akure. They are supposed to be playing their home matches at the Akure Township Stadium but they had to move to Ijebu Ode because their stadium was deemed not good enough.

^^^^

Aight, but are they both from Akure or what?

Yes they are. . . Rising Stars is Sunshine's reserve team.
NPL have to do something about this.

^^^

Hmmm if you truly mean it, but i don't think that's right because they are almost like Bukola Babes/Kwara United.

Enyimba through to the Federation Cup final. They'll face Heartland on a date yet to be decided.

Federation Cup final between Enyimba and Heartland will be played on the 25^th of September

Bayelsa United chairman Victor Rumson Baribote was yesterday returned unopposed as chairman of the Nigeria Premier League (NPL), , at an election organized by the NPL Electoral Committee and supervised by the Nigeria Football Federation.

The declaration of Baribote as NPL Chairman by the Electoral Committee followed the award of an Arbitration Tribunal headed by Professor Ibidapo Obe and upheld by a Federal High Court, Abuja on August 2, nullifying the May 8, 2010 poll that brought Davidson Owumi to power.

Baribote led a dogged fight for over a year to unseat Davidson Owumi, who an arbitration panel ruled was not eligible to contest for the NPL polls.

Fifteen of the 20 clubs from last season's NPL were in attendance at Wednesday morning's vote ordered by the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) in Abuja.

The absentees were Gateway FC, Sunshine Stars, 3SC, Enyimba and Warri Wolves.

Also elected yesterday was Mohammed Abdulazeez of Ranch Bees of Kaduna as Chairman of Chairmen of the NPL.

The NPL board announced Tuesday that the elections will be conducted yesterday afternoon by a new electoral committee.

An Abuja High Court recently ruled for a re-run of the NPL elections.
The immediate task for Baribote is to ensure a resolution of the dispute over the title sponsorship of the NPL as well as the vexed issue of the revenue due the league from their various sponsors and partners.

Baribote will also have to work overtime to return public and corporate confidence in the NPL after a long-drawn squabble over their leadership, which was dragged to court against FIFA statutes.

The 2010/2011 league season still has four rounds of matches to be played after it was temporarily halted without any notice as a result of international engagements of several of the clubs as well as a clash with Federation Cup matches.

In his acceptance speech, Baribote promised to reconcile all members of the Premier League family and work harmoniously with the Nigeria Football Federation to bring real growth and renaissance to the domestic game.

Um, Bayelsa United aren't in the Premier League, how is this possible.

Heartland defeated Enyimba 1-0 to win the Federation Cup.
Ocean Boys won the third place match defeating Bayelsa United 5-4 on penalties.
Heartland will represent Nigeria in next season's confederation cup.

@ Medjal, can u confirm that score line? I thought it was Ocean Boys winning 7- 6.

What happened to 3sc?

I really wish all the local clubs in the country can be commercialized; because I still don't understand why the governors can allow their office to be used by some group of criminals who claim to be club owners (yet they are not); they just hand around wait for the government budget for the clubs and share among themselves. We don't have clubs in Nigeria, we only have players or group of ball jugglers with a name. A football club is an organised or incorporated body with a president, committee and a set of rules responsible for ensuring the continued playing existence of one or more teams which are selected for regular competition play (and which may participate in several different divisions or leagues).

We should all speak with one voice for this trend to change; the government has no business running clubs, since they have a lot of job that needs attention.

We should not be afraid that Nigerians cannot manage the clubs effectively, if South Africans can do it, I believe we can do better. A group of friends and I are trying to see if Stationery Stores can be revived and managed like to true commercial oriented business entity like the Arsenal, Manchecter United, Barcelona Madrid etc and we need idea and support

If we want our football to grow, we need business minded people who knows how to manage top brand like the super eagles; we need people who know that you don't need to pay the eagles $10K to perform for a nations cup qualifier. We need people in both NPL and NFF who understand the importance of making sure that every league venue must be filled with serious supporters of over 50 k people every match day.

We need people who understand the importance of encouraging other states to develop league like Lagos state.

we need people who can push for the female to be developed to rival what is obtainable in Europe and America.

It is this same league that we expect to see replacement for our super eagles players, yet we are allow the league suffer; we must act now

so nobody is really talking about how to change the fortune of Nigeria league football; please guys lets do something so that those coming after us will not say we are a group wasted generations; we just have to do something now, like a revolution

Jude Aneke has broken Ahmed Musa's record of most goals scored in a season. He scored a hat trick as Kaduna United thrashed Tornadoes 3-1 to put his tally this season at 20 goals.

kini scores ?

latest?

Latest scores:
Bukola 0 vs Dolphins 1
Pillars 0 vs Sunshine 0

^^

Thank you, let me search for more scores.

Pillars will surely not allow sunshine to win as they are gunning for the third place spot with warri wolves.

Bukola babes can as well sell the match as winning gives them nothing, they are safe away from the relegation zone. I predict a dolphins, sunshine and wolves going to Africa club competition next year with heartland from the fa cup triumph.

So sad that there are no life updates anywhere online, both tv, radio and on the web.

Guys please what's the latest scores? I hop Sunshine can at least score a goal. Though difficult. Referree give one of those your penalties to Sunshine.Its badly needed.lol

Half time across the various centres.
Shooting Stars 1 vs Lobi Stars 0: If it stays like this, Shooting will stay up.
Pillars looking the more likely to score vs Sunshine.
