The bane of our football authorities over the years has been the lack of belief in our local coaches, the incentive they will give a foreigner a local coach will beg and cry before he gets a quarter of such incentives. Our football authorities are ready to give an arm and a leg, pay a foreigner “arm robber” salary but always unwilling to give a good, competent local coach same goodies in other to succeed

In the last 20 years most of the millennials have been battered with the idea that there are lesser sports, especially if they are from my part of Africa where football is worship as a religion to the detriment of other sports.

DEVIL MAY CARE ATTITUDE
The Nff talks about sponsors all the time and it never occurred to them that their website gives massive brand visibility to their sponsors and partners. Many times i worry about the worth of the sponsors and the contract the sponsors and partners sign with the federation, i hope strongly that it isn’t a contract based on Man no Man only and it can outlive the administration . it seems nobody really bothers about accountability, visibility, and all the mileage that partners and sponsors ought to get by being co-developer of the beautiful game in the country....

IKE SUPER FALCONS, LIKE BOSE ODUSANYA

The story of the Super Falcons can be used as a colourful narrative in the world of women’s table tennis in Nigeria.Like the Super Falcons, they have completely dominated women’s football in Africa, having won 9 officially organized women’s African nations cup with 2 unofficial wins to make it 11.The challenge is that they haven’t been able to translate their dominance on the continent to any meaningful advantage of note on the world stage. In all their world cup appearances they have faltered to deceive except in one.

An average Nigeria player would do ANYTHING to escape to foreign lands (anywhere better than home) for the proverbial greener pastures they are ready to play at the uttermost part of the earth, including the back side of the desert and also our neighbouring countries as long as their pay is right. So most African countries have at least a Nigeria player in their league not necessarily the elite division and so many returnees from Europe etc will gladly land a “lucrative” contract at a well organised league and in countries where the laws of the game and contractual agreements is king.
