SportsRe: Which Football Club Should I Support And Why? by akinalabi(m): 3:07pm On Nov 16, 2007
It all depends on the kind of person you are.

If you're like most Nigerians who just want
to follow the crowd, you can go for Arsenal.

If you've got class and style, go for Man Utd!

Just listen to this and feel me.

Ronaldo and Fabregas?

That's a ridiculous comparison.

Come on guys. Forget club loyalty and ask
any neutral in any corner of the world who
is a better player.

I don't need to mention the obvious.

SportsRe: Bayern Munich 2-2 Bolton by akinalabi(m): 11:48am On Nov 09, 2007
dayokanu,

Don't get too defensive. I know you're ready
to defend your team any day and that is a
sign of a great fan.

Whichever way you look at it, even if Bayern
wins all the trophies in the world, there is no
doubt this was a great result for Bolton and
a dissapointing one for Bayern.

The lesson here is that when you bash other
teams (especially in England) when they stumble,
people don't bash Bayern because not many of
us iin Naija watch the Bundesliga.

I know that was a freak result I. The fact remains
that Bayern are not as invincible as you potray them
here and also that all teams stumble.

A few weeks ago, the spoilt my bet by drawing at
home to one lowly team.

But they are still one of the greatest clubsides in
world football.

No questions.

The moment you begin to celebrate a point
at home against your title rivals, then you've
got a problem.

I wonder how many arsenal fans would have
taken a point gladly if you offered it to them
before the game?

There was possession surely but nothing came
off it. Arsenal's goals were defensive blunders
from United.

The best move of the match came from United.

Saha to Evra to Ronaldo.

Arsenal were full of flair, but no substance.

United are dissapointed because the match was
thrown away.

I still can't believe Arsenal fans are celebrating.

AutosRe: Why Call "okada" As Motorbike by akinalabi(m): 6:55pm On Oct 30, 2007
The term came after a private airline called Okada came
into being.

The airline, "Okada Air" prides itself as swift and efficient,
so since people see bike transport as swift (that is less
traffic problems), they named it after the airline.

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Manchester United Fan thread: Forever Reds by akinalabi(m): 12:28pm On Oct 30, 2007
My little contibution.

If Carrick is fit, I reckon he'll start alonside Hargo. No
doubt Anderson has done very well in the midfield but I
think we will (Carlos Quieroz's influence here) want to keep
it a bit tight in the middle.

Anderson moves swifly forward very well, he hardly passes
sideways- but Carrick and Hargo can stabilize things
better. They are more assured on the ball. And you know
if you can't keep the ball against this current Arsenal, you
are in trouble.

But what if Carrick isn't 100% fit? Then I guess we have to
stick to Hargo and Anderson.

In this scenerio, it will be a 4-4-2 on the surface. Hargo,
Anderson, Christiano, Giggsy/Nani in the middle. Then Tevez
and Wazza in front.

If Giggsy starts, then we know Wazza will play most of
the game on the left and Giggsy moving to the middle.

We can only speculate though. The final thought will come
from Sir Alex and Carlos.

Then I really hope Evra is 100% fit. Something tells me
he might just the the key both defensively and going forward.

In the end, I feel the difference would be our forward.

Argentina and the White Pele.

Wish I had a ticket.

Go on United!

@Akinlabi,

You are not the only one my finger also got burnt on Charlton & MK Dons, I am a bit sceptical with the Championship now, any team can beat any team Home and Away does not matter. How else would you explain the team that is topping the league losing 2- 0 at Home. That will not happen in the premiership or even la liga. What I have observe most teams in the lower league the moment one team scores, its always impossible to overturn the result. But top teams like Manchester Utd , Real Madrid, Barca and Chelsea, even if they are down 3- 0 they can still turn the result round thats due to quality in the side. It looks like I will stick with the big clubs for now althoug the odds on them are not encouraging, But you will have to put more money to make something significant.
You're very right.

You see, I usually have two bets. Funny thing is that
I went to MK to watch the MK Dons game. It was
shocking.

I won't add the lesser teams for the big money again.

Maybe when I do the tricky games with small money
then I can add them.

We're always learning.

Cheers,

I'm an ardent follower of not only the premiership
but also the lower leagues.

Funny thing is that my brother actually warned as
well. West Brom agains Norwich was a safer options.

I just felt that after two defeats, this was the chance
for Charlton to bounce back. QPR were bottom at
before the match.

I didn't play it safe enough.

Which true Nigerian football fan will not
remember Ernest Okonkwo?

Maybe the younger fans won't know him
though.

Today, we admire the likes of Andy Gray,
Archie McPherson, Martin Tyler and co, but
the memories of Ernest Okonkwo is still
rife in our hearts.

I can't forget this statement:

"Uwem Bassey is on the ball. He beats
Christian Chuckwu, beats Christian Madu.

He has beaten two 2 "Christians", he must
be a Muslim.

He was a genius.

May his soul keep resting in peace.

Siena:
Sultaan, it's not carburetted. It's Bosch KE-Jetronic (CIS). Mercedes of that era pre-EFI ran this set-up, it does initially look like a carb-fed motor, but under the filter assembly is the air-flow meter / fuel distributor. The hole visible in the top of the filter assembly leads to the CO adjuster, that raises and lowers the sensor plate, accessible with a 3mm long allen key.
Some people sure know about cars.

WebmastersRe: How I Got Scammed By Google! by akinalabi(m): 1:34am On Oct 21, 2007
Google is very strict when it comes to this issue. You
know the money they pay out comes from advertisers
like some of us so they have a duty to protect us.

While doing this, they ban a some innocent people. Try
and state your case and hope for the best.

If they don't accept your case, there are 2 things you
can do.

1. Find an alternative to monetizing the traffic on your
website. You can sell your own products

2. This is a bit unethical though. Use a different name
and address to open a fresh account. You can't use
the adsense codes on the site you got banned initially.

All the best.
