Didn't they know that already?

Were they begged to represent us? They went to a training camp to prove and get picked for the Olympic team.

I ain't against their protests...they must be paid their entitlements BUT do not embarrass the nation, siasia THAT ONLINE NEWSPAPERS CLAIMED WANTS TO QUIT THE TEAM should tell me WHICH CLUB/COUNTRY WILL HIRE HIM.

Seriously i'll like to know? How come it's NIGERIA LEAGUE he keeps seeing work? Let's not fool ourselves NFF national team job is as good as it gets for most of these guys.

They have the right to show their anger...but refusing to train? Threatening to abandon match?? That's basically lack of professionalism & commitment (like they DO NOT FEEL THEY CAN BEAT DENMARK?)

give me a team that has boycotted a match and has gone scot free.
Well, lemme give u an example. In 2008, Zamfara United were 2 play Gateway FC of Abeokuta in Zamfara, d former Asst Coach of Zamfara was their coach (gateway fc) that tym. Zamfara United were owing their players like 5months salary + allowances, d visiting Coach capitalized on that, 2 of Zamfara United players were given an equivalent of 2months salary by Gateway United coach 2 fix d match, the players went on and missed one penalty each in that match, Zamfara United play draw in that match and discovered later in the night that those players were paid 2 do what dey did. Their contracts were terminated with immediate effect and their matter was reported 2d NFF, the players licence were seized and were relegated 2 playing Street football, that marked d end of their professional football careers.

if the country does not care about you then why do you want to go and represent it for the olympics ? if there is someone i know who does not care about me i will stay far away from them and not try to represent them. receive sense

AlphaCentauri:
if you dont have food you will not be at the olympics. people without food dont have time for sports. those boys at the olympics are all rich. they all play for european or asian clubs

who u epp u don baff

MrWhaley:

STFU,abeg!!! European clubs,you say? You don't even know much sef and you are arguing blindly. An Olympic team is only allowed to have 3 senior and established players while the rest MUST be home based. That means 95% of those players ply their trade in our local league,playing for the likes of Enugu Rangers and Aba Warriors.
Tell me,do those kind of players seem WEALTHY to you?? Abi you can work for free for someone when you are wallowing in Poverty because "it's a PRIVILEGE",right?


Ha! This guy just they vex me for here...KEYPAD WARRIOR!
Asian clubs my foot! Get your facts right become jumping out to argue.

who baffing don epp

jhidey08:
. U can as well do some research on it, u might come across an example.
A player's performance at international (country) level plays a vital role in his success. Take a look at Newcastle United's Cissoko, he wasn't valued at any reasonable amount b4 dis last Euro championships, his country gave him a chance and he made good use of it, he is now valued at around 35million Pounds now.
So u see, those players wouldn't want 2 blow their chances because of $5000 allowance dat is not paid for a lifetime opportunity. Mikel is the only established player among dem o, others are still struggling to find their feet. Only someone who doesn't know how this thing works would beg them not to boycott d match, let them boycott it and c what follows.

these greedy boys need to be slapped. they are all rich. spend your own money. after-all you are there for your own glory and to get european clubs to see you shine. ungrateful fools. in fact you have to pay nigeria to represent us in the olympics because we know you are there for your own glory. money grabbers.

Remix10:


Mumu, receive sense, okponu, these guys are there because of patriotism walahi, do you think if Mikel has been playing all these chelsea friendlies, he won't be given bonus per match more than $150, NFF should do the needful besides they receive alert every month.

AlphaCentauri:
DUMMY chelsea is a football business and all their games are monetized by adverts so everybody who participates in their games gets paid. nigeria is not a football business and the country gets no money from adverts when nigeria plays. two different scenarios. next time use your brain to come up with a similar parallel, if your brain is still working that is lolzzzz

Coconut head buh u get my point ni, I knw se u no fit think of anoda scenario, I no go help u, think out of the box boy n thank me later..

Really,niggar? That's your excuse?? Wow!

I rest my case,please..

AlphaCentauri:
i dont need excuses, i have laid down the facts. now its up to you to expand your brain and embrace the truth

MrWhaley:

You didn't lay down any fact. You were simply being Myopic. Unable to reason beyond your nose.

I won't prolong this argument any further cuz it's obvious you are beyond succour. Bye!

semitunde:


Exactly. If they think the country doesn't care for them, and they don't care for the country enough to at least do it for free and get recognition from it; they should have simply protested before going, knowing that buhari may cancel the trip altogether.

A beg you make sense jare.

Whose business if they loose or not? Footballers are'nt supposed to be paid huge allowance; afterall how does football affect the economy of Nigeria.
