cos qouting a mod, when he isn't on a thread, is same as calling his attension towards that thread,
and the Rules says, nobody should called the mod on any thread, but to do it privately DM,
thats same Rule that got Joe banned
TheSuperNerd: No. I am not breaking a rule. I quoted the mod just as I will quote any of you and say what I need to say pertaining to why I quoted you.
Besides, the message is for him and I needed the mod to see my message. I am very serious about this.
You should be addressing the fact that people here want to form stubborn and derail this thread and not telling me to not do what I am doing. Unless you also support what they do.
I am sure. B'cos I have mentioned mods/Supermods a few times on threads before and they give me permission to do so. Sometimes, it has to do with opening threads in the past.
On this issue of derailment, I have gone privately on this matter before and I was told to mention a mod/Supermod when it next occurs. So yes, I am sure.
And I don't think that is the only thing that got Joe banned. He actually kinda insulted the mods by saying they don't have a life and even said they should ban him for eternity. Something like that. See I just want to forget that episode coz I was not happy with what I read in those pages. Things went over the top. And people are just taking sides without understanding anything.
I even came out and asked for Joebie to be released. I did that for the sake of the thread. I always look at the big picture.
The say a picture can say a thousand words and of so then what about a video.
Let's not be comedic, but how will a player playing Wing or Wing back and not be able to cross the ball in the EPL.
The video clips shows Victor crossing with both feet left and right foot crosses from the Wing. And that's in Seria A so it's very recent.
A very basic skill that our current wingers seem to struggle with.
You dropped a 3 minutes video that showed his successful attempts at it but if you followed his time with Chelsea he was terrible at crossing the ball to the extent that he only completed 20% of his 578 attempts
Moses as Wing back was only successful in the defensive aspect of it
SWITZERLAND �� FIFA is helping football players switch eligibility and represent a second national team with a planned rule change announced on Wednesday.
The proposal gives hope to players who are eligible for multiple countries but fell out of favor at their first national team, where they are bound after just a single minute of playing time in a competitive game.
The new wording would let players switch eligibility if they played a maximum of three times for the first national team — including tournament qualifying games — before they turned 21, and at least three years earlier.
The new rule will take effect next month if 211 national federations approve it at the September 18 congress that FIFA is hosting online from Zurich.
A FIFA working group has tried for more than two years to shape the new proposal.
A test case at the Court of Arbitration for Sport ahead of the 2018 World Cup is key background.
Munir El Haddadi, now with Europa League finalist Sevilla, wanted to be selected for Morocco but lost his appeal against the FIFA rules. He had played just once for Spain in September 2014, as a 77th-minute substitute in a European Championship qualifier.
The new rule would not help Brazil midfielder Oscar, who has suggested switching to China where he has played club soccer since 2017.
Oscar would fail the test because he has played more than three times for Brazil, including after he was aged 21, and at a World Cup finals tournament in 2014.
The proposal would bar nationality switches for anyone who played at a “final tournament of the FIFA World Cup or a final tournament of a confederation competition.”
FIFA’s new flexibility even suggests letting players revert back to their original national team if they never actually play for the second one.
The existing FIFA rules have been used by many players born in Europe - who played in national age-group teams or friendly games - and switched to African countries where they have ties through their parents or grandparents.
In more updating of eligibility rules, FIFA wants to clarify how long players must live in a country before they can play for its teams.
The proposal aims to help players who as children moved with their families to a new country for non-soccer reasons.
Three years residency would be required if a player moved before the age of 10, and five years residency if the move was aged 10 to 18.
FIFA’s existing rule already requires a five-year residency from the age of 18 if a player wants to acquire a new national eligibility.
That allowed Brazil-born forwards Elkeson and Aloisio to switch to the current China team after they were naturalized as citizens.

It could happen as various petitions by certain players have written appealing to FIFA to tweak the rule a little in favor of those lads who have just one appearance for their initial adopted nation or nation of birth.
So yeah, there is some truth to this but I will carry out my own search. If this rule is passed, some Naija Lads born abroad could see their steps retraced. Time will tell.

Maybe you didn't watch Vicmo during his days at Wigan athletic before he went to Chelsea.
Don't forget, he was crucial to Chelsea winning the Europa as a winger. is that not being successful?
Lol you were given special permission, well I think that says it all You think I care about all these you wrote here The same way you find it worthy not to call out Chriskels and you replied his post not pertaining to super eagles is the same I am also entitled to reply any post not pertaining to super eagles okay. If you can do it and you are not the mod then I can too You can’t tell me you have a special permission. You have special permission because say you pay money to open Nairaland abi, the same way you opened Nairaland is the same way I opened too okay Since you find it fit not too call out someone else and you can reply his post so I am too The fact you did it maybe just once and I did it probably multiple times doesn’t change the fact that what you did is also derailment. Stop calling it a cheap attempt to painting you been partial, it isn’t You are clamoring for stopping the derailment, yet someone post something not related to Super eagles, you didn’t call the person out, you replied his post and yet you are saying I am giving a cheap excuse to call you out for been partial, Oga you just dey yarn Okoto
I said I would
TheSuperNerd: First of all, I was given special permission to mention a mod/supermod after I went privately to complain to a Supermod about how this thread is being derailed. So there is no hypocrisy. Only your ignorance on display
Now, Answer this question. Is Joebie my pal?
No please answer that and see how silly you sound. Cheap attempt at painting me partial.
If the derailment I did was without applying sense and moderation, what you did was also not applying sense and moderation as well
Like is said if I see a post not super eagles related and I need to quote the post, same way you could quote Chriskels is the same way I would do that without thinking about you or all what you have said here
So what nonsense are you too saying as well?
Also, have I not said off-thread discussions on UCL and UEL Matchdays are bound are arise?? Have I not said from time to time, Euro football discussions will pop up but MODERATION must be applied??
Did I derail the thread when I quoted Chriskels as blatantly as you and your goons did that day dragging club vs Club banters into pages upon pages?? All without applying sense and moderation??
So what nonsense are you saying?
All I see is one trying to desperately to sound smart but this is a very unintelligent approach to keep your derailing hopes alive.
Now listen... In the post I quoted, you said you will post anything you want as long as it is related to football. But all you have ever posted here is related to football that has nothing to do with this thread and you were a major culprit in the derailing of the thread that resulted in Idennaa pointing out that the thread is being derailed and we seem cool with it.
Your post(seen above) that said you will carry on posting whatever you like even if it is just Euro club football banters is akin to the Blueelf's outbursts to post whatever he likes as regards his craze for Liverpool.
And this is where I will always step in. I don't tolerate monikers walking in here and declaring directly or indirectly that they don't respect the thread and will post as they please even if it derials discussions in here.
So there is nothing partial. I am addressing you the same way I addressed Blueelf/Darkelf. And Darkelf and I have always had good discussions here about Naija Players but that day, he stepped out of bounds by insisting on derailing the thread as he pleases "since no one buys data for him" (in his own words).
So You see, you are only desperately bringing in that angle of partiality (when there is actually none) to appeal to those who support your stubborn and ill-cultured post to derail outside this thread's purpose.
Mister... I say again. Be warned. This is the Super Eagles thread and any moniker in here who think he/she can post as they please in utter derailment of the thread without applying moderation will be called out. And any moniker who declares he can do such b'cos no one here is his Papa... will also be called out.
So be careful and start being a useful contributor in here instead of a nuissance and a distraction. If you cannot Respect the thread then stay out! And return to your Euro Clubs section and exercise your Euro Craze and Fanaticism right there!!! Or can't you read?? Do you think Nairaland didn't know what they did when they created an entire Euro football sub section for Euro fanatics like yourself?
So please, carry your Euro obsessions over there and leave this thread dedicated to Naija football for us. Thank you.
Tammy's eye don clear. After the racial mockery of English fans and after being lashed by Frank Lampard as a "championship" player, he would have a rethink
Being a long while on this trend. I missed you guys
