Bloody hate this Kaita guy. That red card against Greece at the 2010 World Cup was a clear case of match fixing. The Greece footballer did not provoke Kaita. Kaita kicked the guy for no reason to get sent off.

A disgrace to all Nigerian footballers. Amokachi, Forget that guy.

That's harsh, don't you think? His red card offence was not as bad as Song's red card against Croatia. There are examples of worse cases of red cards in club and country footbaall.

Except you have evidence of match fixing, it's better you leave him to scrap whatever bit of his career he has left. I am sure he has people who are depending on him for survival in the North.

wHAT A KAITASTROPHIC INCIDENT! WHAT A NAT'L DISGRACE! EVEN IN THE PRESENCE OF UR PRESIDO AND MANY OTHER NIGERIAN MINISTERS AND MONEY-BAGS, NIGERIA WAS KAITAED! WHAT A SHAME!
SURELY, KAITA > MUTALLAB

TheGoodJoe:




“But, Kaita’s attack on the Greek player was unnecessary. He was not threatened, so why kick the player?"...Jay Jay Okocha.

TheGoodJoe:


Sani Kaita's red card was unprovoked. I do not remember what happened in Song's case but Kaita's case defies logic.

Kaita picked the ball to throw in and then all of a sudden, he lashed a kick at the Greek player.

The only logical explanation was, it was fixed. Remember Sodje's arrest and his claim he could fix World Cup games?

If there is any other logical explanation for Sani Kaita's kick, then it was not fixed. I doubt he was a mad man doing training and playing in numerous games for the country.

joseph1013:


Bullsh!t. Watch the video again on Youtube. The Greek was clearly shielding him from taking hold of the ball and then when the ball went out of play pushed the ball at him. Like I said before, there have been worse cases of red cards in the history of the game.

Yes, the guy did wrong. Get over it! Millions of Nigerians were mad at him. Some even attacked his family. It's time to move on.

It's immoral to try to punish children because of the sins of the father. Saying Amokachi should not help his career is being insensitive to the plight of those whose survival is hinged on his breakthrough, no matter how meagre.

TheGoodJoe:


Let Amokachi help him. That does not change my mind. The actions of the Greek player does not or never warranted the kick. You can say we should forgive him but we can not exonerate him.

There was no reason what so ever to warrant a kick.

TheSuperNerd:
Haba!!! Sir! Hate?? Okay wait a minute.... I know you're only trying to be honest but it's kinda surprising that you still haven't let go.

Come on!! This was the same Kaita that was so wonderful at Netherlands 2005 Fifa U-20 World Cup doing "the very dirty job" in midfield for The mercurial Mikel Obi. Remember??

Also, he was the midfield mainstay of Our Dream Team Eagles at Beijing 2008 Olympics Games in which we won Silver losing to Messi and co. Remember??

Look, I was mad too... but we've moved on. Every body just gotta move on.

I remember being in the East (in Nnewi exactly) when Kaita showed up as an FC Ifeanyi Ubah player (didn't last there shaa).

Saying Amokachi shouldn't help Kaita because you hate.... **I "hate" this "hate" word when it's used on people... lemme use "dislike"... (kinder milder).**

..... because you "dislike" him for what he did at South Africa 2010. I know!!!! it cost us but the sun didn't go black nor did the moon fail to come out later that evening....

Forgive and Forget Sir TheGoodJoe....

Let Sani be..... please....

joseph1013:
Good!

Your previous comments asking Amokachi to forget about him, even to the point of a serious accusation of match fixing yet without clear evidence was brazen emotions and quite insensitive. It's cool you've changed your mind about that.

TheGoodJoe:



Please, I have not changed my stance of a case of Match fixing. Amokachi can help him for the kids but I wish we can strap that guy to a lie detector.

joseph1013:
It is at this point that the scientist in me will ask for clear evidence. I wonder if you know how serious an allegation you're alleging; a crime that would not just stop you from playing professional football for life but will put you in prison for 5 years.

You can be sued for libel for this, are you aware?

TheGoodJoe:



I know the difference between hate and dislike. I hate what he did and I am yet to see a reason why he lashed out at the Greek player. I just went on a stroll down the memory lane on YouTube to watch it again. I am yet to see why he was provoked to lash out with a kick.

Let Amokachi help him because of his family. Not because of Kaita.

No doubt, I never forgot it.



Nigeria-born Sodje demanded £30,000 for a booking and £50,000 for a player to get a red card during a match.

He even claimed he punched a player in the groin during a match to be deliberately sent off - and pick up a £70,000 bung.

The former Reading and Brentford defender also boasted that he could rig Premier League and World Cup games.

He said some African players could be easily tempted because they do not get paid much to represent their national teams.

As soon as I read this, my mind said Kaita. You can note, he said African, not just Nigerian.

TheSuperNerd:

I know he did wrong..... I can't say if match fixing was the case.

But why would he wanna fix that game?? Why will Kaita "deliberately" soil his name??

I'm certain he regrets that moment with every passing minute he breathes.

Let's just let it go.... We got better soccer days to look ahead to.....

People make mistakes which sometimes look super-scandalous.

TheGoodJoe:


Let them sue me. When they are ready, they should PM and I will give them my full name and address.

They should give me a chance to pick my lie detector specialist.

You are sounding as if I am the first person to accuse Kaita of match fixing. Let Kaita sue Chris Eaton first.

Fixing allegations raised over 2010 World Cup match

Nigeria v Greece was under investigation, claims former Fifa corruption expert

Fifa's former head of security, Chris Eaton, last night claimed the world governing body has investigated the 2010 World Cup match between Nigeria and Greece for suspected match-fixing.

Greece came from behind to defeat their African opponents 2-1 in Bloemfontein – a comeback which was facilitated by the dismissal of Nigeria's Sani Kaita after 33 minutes. Kaita kicked out at Vasilis Torosidis after both players had briefly tangled as they tried to win the ball.

Speaking to Channel 4 News, Eaton said the match has been under active investigation, as was a national federation – and that Fifa's anti-corruption unit has also been contacted by a footballer playing in the Championship expressing concerns over corruption.

FLAT FAIL! Chris did not accuse Keita of match fixing. He said the match was under investigation as far back as 2013. This is 2016, he has not come out to categorically say he was involved.

On the other hand, you are adamant that it was a case of match fixing. Your evidence, sire?

TheGoodJoe:



I did not say I have an evidence of match fixing but I sad, there is no other logical explanation for Sani Kaita's action against the Greek player.

As soon as Sam Sodje's match fixing report came out, he clearly stated he committed a similar action to get sent off. He also stated, (note) he can rig World Cup games. That means, he could get African players to commit unexplainable offenses to get sent off.

I am not ignorant to accept Sani Kaita ran mad for a few seconds.

Before you ask for evidence, can you give me a reason why Kaita lashed out at the guy? Throwing the ball at him is not enough reason, especially in a game that would decide our World Cup fate.

TheGoodJoe:



Asking for evidence is like asking me to provide evidence why I belive our U20 Flying Eagles were fixed to fail at New Zealand. Or why I believe Coach Garba was dirty in the game against Germany.

Why Coach Garba waited for so long to make a second change in that game or refused to make a change to bring in Nacho who had the ability to grab a winner.

It is unfortunate things like these go on but when you look at he signs, you see it.

Kaita had no reason to lash out. Okocha even echoed it. If the player is not retaliating then, the only explanation is fixing.

I will stand by it. Unless someone can give me a better reason for such madness.

joseph1013:
Are you trying to shift the burden of proof to me? LOL

You're the one with the allegation, therefore the onus is on you to provide the proof of your allegation.

joseph1013:
So are you saying Manu was also involved in match fixing?

TheGoodJoe:


I said, that I match fixing. There I no other explanation. You said I should provide evidence.

The video is there for all to see. There was no reason for that action. He was not threatened or provoke to do that.

So unless you have a better explanation, you can not ask for evidence.

TheGoodJoe:


The NFF And Coach Manu should explain why they carried our boys to Germany to train under a summer weather for a tournament that they would play under Winter conditions in New Zealand. Does that look like a plan to win the tournament?

joseph1013:
If that video is your proof, then the hundreds of worse cases we've had in football and continue to have are also match fixing cases.

Either you don't know the meaning of the terms you use or you have no idea of the implications of your allegations.

joseph1013:
So if they don't explain, it is match-fixing?

Your logic is legendary!
