Maigari is the new NFF President so I guess that settles it.

I hope Siasia is not going to dent his profile the more with the way heartland is playing right now in Owerri.

I just feel Siasia is over-hyped. (Pls Siasia lovers shld not crucify me).
It's like when a movie is over-hyped for a while, when it now comes out, it will be like "Is dat IT?"

My sentiments

His failures will probably be blamed on Maigari or the NFF
you will hear things like they are not giving him free hand to choose players like they gave teh oyinbos
or they are not paying the bonus blah blah blah

Hope he succeeds though

and he himself is not helping matters at all with his constant talk talk on air. Anyway he should pray well oo

NFF suspends Premier League kick off

The Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) has decided to put on hold the commencement of the Nigeria Premier League (NPL) scheduled to begin on September 25, Naijaligue..com can reveal.
Rising from its inaugural meeting on Thursday, the football federation announced through one of its board members, Chris Green, that the proposed kick date for the NPL is no longer viable.
It explained that the suspension of the top-flight is to allow the Nigerian FA resolve outstanding issues concerning the Premier League.
Green stated that the NFF wants to resolve the relegation dispute involving Bayelsa United, Sharks Football Club and Wikki Tourists.
Also, the country’s football house is expected to look into the troubled NPL chairmanship now occupied by Davidson Owumi and disputed by Bayelsa United chairman, Victor Baribote Rumson.
