VERY IMPRESSIVE FOR NIGERIA AMIDST ALL TE LESS PATRONISATION OF LOCAL LEAGUES.

I CAN SEE REALLY HAS POTENTIAL EVEN TO BREAK INTO TOP 10 OR MAY BE TOP 5 WORLD LEAGUES. CAN U IMAGINE WHAT THAT WILL DO FOR AFRICAN FOOTBALL?

THIS IS THE REF. WEBSITE U CAN READ MORE



http://www.iffhs.de/?b6e20fa3002f70d00ee2d17f7370eff3702bb1c2bb0e

Mrcrales have checked the reference I gave?

seefor urself.

the IFFHS is an independent body nd it uses the same criteria to grade all leagues.

nigeria's league is right behind protugal.

they assess how local teams far in international competitions like caf champions league.

i know my stuff.

and why ain't they playing any international friendlies or tourneys?

Good news sha.

hahaha. Thats bullshit. 9ja league cant rank 21st in the world and 2nd in africa. Na for mouth? Wetin happen to tunisia, south africa, sudan and co, ?

naija league? better and best on the pages of the newspapers.
is it not the same thing as saying naija is the giant of africa.

You wanna try compare the level of infrastructure available to North african clubs like Zamalek, Al Ahly etc, healthcare plans, training facilities, officiating, marketability and the league organisational structure with the buncha nitwits we have in the NFF? Statistics don't count for isht as far as I'm concerned. Our league may be statistically sound but the real condition is morally, spiritually and physically appalling.

Maybe the ranking was base on 2 Nigerian clubs in group stages of CAF champions league otherwise Naija league should be ranked 1000TH in the world. Shyte dey happen!

There is no way in heaven or hell that this iff people are correct.
What is iffhs ? Where are they located ? (okay, probably Germany). What are they even about ? Even Nairaland,no offense, can cook any criteria to select our league as the best. Does that mean It's true ?
Nigerian teams dont have even offices- some of them operate from the boot of their chairman's car ? Do they have team docs, finance and PR teams ?
They have no structure what ever and operate at the mercy of a state gov. A league where fans beat up refs and hinder TV crews from covering matches so they can force results.
[size=14pt] IT'S A COMPLETE FARCE [/size]

here is no way in heaven or hell that this iff people are correct.
What is iffhs ? Where are they located ? (okay, probably Germany). What are they even about

actually they're the most recognized body in the world when it comes to football statistics/history.

its also worth noting that they're known for some ridiculous rankings, i.e nigerian league being the best in africa/ 21st in the world, hilarious!

Emperoh
The ranker and the rankee all get problem. Serious one. A friend of mine is holding trials at Insurance. He's been picked by the coach but his future now lies on how many players are handpicked by goverment officials. Imagine, that's the league better than egyptian league o. Shio

In terms of  quality of play, Yes, but in terms of organization, management and infrastructure, its a capital NO!!

It's a big joke!!! Nigerian League the best in Africa? You must be joking!!! Nigeria Leaggue is the worst in Africa, even Sudanese League are better than Nigeria, the people or person rated Nigerian League as the best in Africa must haven take "Sepe" plus "Night train", Impossible

I don't know whether to cry or laugh.

Moderator,kindly ban this poster and send his topic to the jokes section or better still ,recycle bin.

Joke of the millenium our naija guys don bribe the people wey dey do the rating

i laugh

This ranking is right if it is done in terms of quality of football and resource persons mainly players and Technical teams. The major problem our league that h made us to feel that South African, Egyptian, Tunisian leagues and the likes of it is better than ours is because our league lacks proper organization and funding. As far as I am concern Nigeria is still the best in the continent because we are star studded is just that the state of the Nation is telling on the sports too.

you must be joking,

Nigerians have been so abused that even when told that anything good can come out of them, they do not believe in themselves.

We need to have a commission to combat inferiority complex.

I think the real question here is whether an average Nigerian is willing to change his/her mind set period AND NO COMMSSION CAN DO THIS if an individual doesn't want the change!

oge4real:

Nigerians have been so abused that even when told that anything good can come out of them, they do not believe in themselves.

Here we are again fooling ourselves,
With level of Organisation, infrastructure, officiating etc we can't compare our League with that of Egypt, South Africa etc

At times I have the feelings that we are still in the 80's when the rest of the world are in the 21st century.

how can this be? how do they get their data? this is a huge joke & they should go & get their facts right all over again.
we are awaiting a fresh response!

na wa o! so no nigerian believe in the quality of its product, something must done to change this notion, ah ah!

Ah, please you guys ha,ha because you guys are in Nigeria and you can see the wrongs happening in Nigeria, can you also see wrongs that happens in Egypt,South Africa and all that?

Please, up Nija!!!

Thats all this country care about: - Statistics. If the topic is true, why is it that in most nigerian family, papa na chelsea, mama na arsenal, children na man U. Let this country wake up from its delusion of Grandeur.

and Captain America is originally from Du district in Jos South
Best in Africa my foot-ball boot

this is good news
