Guardian News:

THE Presidential Task Force (PTF) on the Super Eagles preparation for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa may have endorsed England's former coach, Glenn Hoddles, as technical adviser for the team.

Hoddles, whose application for the job came late, was interviewed by the panel yesterday in Abuja. He looked very confident, promising that he would change the team's approach if given the job. It was learnt yesterday that the Wolves Hampton former coach would be assisted by Super Eagles' former captain, Sunday Oliseh, and Beijing 2007 Olympics silver winning coach, Samson Siasia.

The PTF, it was further learnt, would take charge of the bills of the new technical adviser for the period of the World Cup. The task force was said to have requested Hoddles to submit his programme for the World Cup after he appeared for the interview in Abuja yesterday. A source hinted that the task force and the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) have concluded plans to invite Oliseh and Siasia to join the coaching crew for the World Cup preparation.

"The PTF wants a good outing for the Super Eagles in South Africa. That informed their decision to assemble the best of the technical crew for the team," the source said.

"With the experience of Sunday Oliseh and Samson Siasia as assistants to Glenn Hoddle, I think the task force has done a good job."

Have you a link to that article?

Glenn who? It is well.

Siasia coming on board? Nice. Hope it does not end up in a fight. 

FBS MY BRO I FEEL U
GLENN WETIN,

WHICH ENGLISHMAN HAS SUCCEEDED OUTSIDE ENGLAND AS A COACH, A BEG MAKE D GUY GO DEY DRINK TEA FOR JAND.
NOW SIASIA AND OLISEH=CORRECT

So these are the "magicians" and "miracle workers" that will deliver us. Well I pray that their efforts are rewarded. But seriously is this how to make a sound decision. Hastily sacking a coach before the WC with no replacement in mind and then assembling a new technical crew that have never work together, hence we don't know if they are compatible. All of this being done in less than a month. Why couldn't we wait until after the WC to take our time, do proper research, draw up a plan, identify the people we want from a vast field of candidates and then proceed to do whatever it takes to get them. But once again we have fallen back to our fire brigade approach hoping it will yield positive results.

Am not comfortable with this oliseh and siasia configuration. Why not siasia alone.i think he has what it takes to lead us to world cup.

When did Oliseh become a coach?
