My question is if they eventually leave EU, will EPL( premier league) still be participating in the UCL??(Champions league) cuz champions league is mainly for european countries!!!!!

UK is still in Europe, just dat they are no longer a member of EU. So dat means they'll still participate in what happens in Europe. There are some countries dat are not members of EU but they participate in champions league. Turkey is not a member but Fenerbache do participate in the competition.

So EPL will always be well represented in the competition.

In 2014 there was Scottish independence referendum, the arrowhead Alex Salmond was never seen as an enemy of the state or thrown into jail.

In 2013 David Cameron an advocate of Remain promised the people of UK Leave/Remain referendum on EU which was carried out yesterday, the people voted to exit EU.all this people u mentioned did not create a hateful radio station vowing to kill other groups or their perceived enemies neither did they go around cursing people like that ur psycho director.there is a huge difference,u people should learn to be civilized instead of behaving like animals

But in Nigeria some people go haywire whenever they hear Biafra referendum as if their lives depend on it.

Does that mean UK is no longer in Europe?
If yes, which of d continents do they belong to now because I know they can't create another and can't be floating too either..
No they are now in Africa and Manchester United would be competing in the next caf league.
sigh. Education in Nigeria though.

Nigerians, shaa, are some funny hypocrites.

Many followed the BrExit debate and the Palestinian question, even taking sides; buit mention Biafra, and they begin to spew their venom.
You talk about secession, and they begin to talk about war. Now, let me ask you - How many gunshots have you heard go off in the wake of BrExit?
For you to immediately liken secession to war, are you not indirectly saying Nigerians are simply too uncivilized to come together and discuss hard issues?

Many of these Nigerians take sides on BrExit, but support their hero's decision of unilaterally trashing the National Confab results.

Many of these Nigerians tweet #BlackLivesMatter on Twitter; but at the same time, support and justify Onitsha massacre and the killing of Shiites. Ain't it funny?

A sizeable number of these Nigerians are immigrants in civilized countries, enjoying their liberties; but at the same time, support the archaic and primitive human rights violations of their hero in the name of 'fighting corruption'.

Truly, hypocrisy is Nigeria's national ideology. And it is on steroids.
My friend, bother nobody with this Biafra gospel. Didn't you see how the UK conducted themselves in the most civilized manner? Did they threatened EU with war if they don't get their referendum? Did they go about cursing everybody in Europe? Where they staging silly protests, thereby constituting themselves as nuisance? These and many more are the questions you need to ask yourself.

You have representatives in the NA, the house of reps, you have governors, state assemblies, political elites, leaders etc. These are the people that should be at the forefront of your Biafra agitation and not some silly illiterates that are only good in using a pirated radio station to curse everybody

I think the premise with which you go about trying to achieve an objective matters a whole lot! Keep that at the back of your mind!

But non of them setup a radio station to broadcast HATE message....against those that are FoR and AGAINST YOU...NON! You might want to argue but that is the biggest pitfalls of your agitation! World powers also hear whats bn said and that is why they are reluctant to make a concrete pronouncement on this issue

Persistence wears out Resistance at the end of it all but in this 21st century it is Intelligent Persistence and not just Persistence!

Ask urself what is the gay population in the US and how were they able to achieve legislative endorsement? Simple! They made friends not enemies in every sphere of influence...from education, movies, judiciary, sports e.tc

Are there Hausa/Fulani/YorubA that support ur agitation and left to them wd gladly let u go? YES there are! Should u b working to keep their support? YES u shd but u rather choose to lump everyone as part of a "zoo"!

On the converse, wd u agree that there are IGBOs even among ur elites who dont buy into the BiAFRA movt, not just becos they fear the resurection of another civil unrest but because of how the whole BIAFRA movt has been presented as an "Us Against Them" thing instead of "What We Want" thing" and "Why We Believe We Should Go" thing! Should u folks be workin to galvanise support back home? Yes, U shd!

Instead of u folks painstakingly tryin to sell the BIAFRA product to even "unbelievers" in ur midst, all we see and hear are insults been peddled at them!

How does that help ur cause?

If anyone tells you that doin it the hard way will produce results, I wish you goodluck but that hard way only brings the TAMIL TIGERS of SRILANKA to my mind!

[size=15pt]No, it means they are not part of the 28 members in Europe. It just like a group of people and one said he want to lave the group. It has nothing to do with English Premier League. They will just be like Turkey. Turkey is Europe, they play European football, but they re not part of the EU member. You gerit? cheesy[/size]

I laugh at those saying this wont affect immigrants from Africa.
Better be prepared.Crossing to Northern Ireland or Scotland when push become shove would be your best bet else..MMIA straight.

Britain have not been having immigration campaign against EU immigrants in the recent past but against non-EU immigrants.

Better have plan B if you were not born and raised in the UK.

As for those agitating for secession...News flash....please make it quick, we are too many for the limited resources sef.

It's not about participation in CL. EPL will become less desirable because it will cost them more to buy players from EU countries and their worth (clubs and players) will be less.

Not entirely Shocked by the result in the UK. I just hope people made an educated decision and voted for the good of their nation and not because of bigoted views.
In the grand scheme of things the rich will get richer poor will get poorer. Natural order of the world and nothing will change that in or out.
And YES! the British have just helped in creating a president Trump.

Lol. No. Actually, they are disgruntled with migrants coming to UK from other European countries. For once, we are not the ones they are embittered about. We sat this one out on a comfy sofa, with popcorn and a can of coke, while we watched them tear each other apart, literally. How about that for a change. Hehe
Re: UK Votes To Leave The European Union by TS2(m): 9:11am On Jun 24, 2016
What has happened by this outcome is that people have opened their eyes a decided to follow the wrong path for a country which needs every benefit the European Union has to offer them.

Let's see how expansive their market will be now.

Foolishness.

This is what civilized people do.
They come together, brainstorm and decide to leave or stay by voting.
We saw the same with the Scottish referendum.
No insults, no name calling of other people and above all no soliciting for weapons
Good luck to the civilized people of UK - the world will always take them seriously.
