Gone are the days when boys were real boys as I look back in nostalgia.

Below were rules of football when we were kids, damn it was fun

1. The fat kid was always the goalkeeper.

2.The owner of the ball decides who plays .

3. If you didn't participate in repairing the ball you were given a match ban.

4. The guy who's never picked was to fetch the ball from the trees or bush when it got stuck, under the car or tunnel to play in the next game.

5. When the owner of the ball got annoyed, game over.

6. When you hit your toes against a stone and you notice blood, you quickly cover the area of injury with sand as a form of first aid and play continues.

7. You can't dribble the owner too much, this may lead him to stop the game by taking away his ball.

8. No matter how many goals you scored, the winner would be determined by the last team to score.

9.No offsides.

10.There is no referee.

11.There is fault only if the fault is serious .

12.The 2 best players can not play in the same team so everyone chooses their players.

13.If you are chosen last it is a humiliation and you will remain in defense.

14.If there is a penalty the goalkeeper is replaced by the best player of the team.

15.The best player on the field is always in the same team as the owner of the ball.

16.There is always a house where if the ball fell there, we knew that the game was over. so be careful !!

17. To distinguish the teams, one of the teams take off their shirts .

18.Game over when its dark and we can barley see the ball, we all disperse in groups teasing one another until we get home to face another punishment from our parents.

Africa is our home. Childhood was fun.

This is so correct....I had a first hand experience with everything you highlighted

The Spanish football federation says it will take legal action over Jenni Hermoso's comments about its president Luis Rubiales.

Rubiales has refused to resign after kissing forward Hermoso on the lips following Spain's Women's World Cup final win over England in Sydney.

Hermoso said on Friday she did not consent to the kiss, but the federation has questioned her version of events.

"The evidence is conclusive," the federation said. "Mr President has not lied."

In a statement by players' union Futpro, which is representing 33-year-old Hermoso, she is quoted as saying "in no case did I seek to raise (lift) the president" while they embraced on the podium.

The Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) said: "The RFEF and Mr President will demonstrate each of the lies that are spread either by someone on behalf of the player or, if applicable, by the player herself.

"The RFEF and the President, given the seriousness of the content of the press release from the Futpro union, will initiate the corresponding legal actions."

The federation also said that, if selected, players have "an obligation" to play for the national team, after 81 female players said they will not represent Spain until Rubiales is removed from his post.

Real Betis striker Borja Iglesias has also said he will not play for the men's national team again while Rubiales is in charge.

In its statement, the RFEF provided four images of Hermoso's embrace with Rubiales, with an analysis of each, which it claims demonstrates that she applied the force to lift Rubiales' feet off the ground.

The federation says it has tried to contact Hermoso, who is Spain's leading women's goalscorer with 51 from 101 appearances, but have "been unsuccessful at all times".

How did the situation get to this point?
Rubiales' behaviour at the Women's World Cup final has drawn international criticism, with government ministers demanding his resignation.

The 46-year-old watched Spain's 1-0 win over England from the VIP area of Stadium Australia in Sydney.

As he celebrated at the final whistle he grabbed his crotch, with Queen Letizia of Spain and her 16-year-old daughter standing nearby.

Then came the kiss with Hermoso, who plays her club football in Mexico for Pachuca, during the presentation ceremony.

She initially said on Instagram she "didn't like" Rubiales' actions but a later statement released on her behalf defended him.

Rubiales apologised for the kiss on Monday, but Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said that was "not enough" and second deputy prime minister Yolanda Diaz joined those calling for him to resign.

On Wednesday, Hermoso said Futpro would "defend my interests" and the union said the kiss should not go unpunished.

On Thursday, football's world governing body Fifa said it had opened disciplinary proceedings against Rubiales, and the RFEF called an extraordinary general assembly on Friday, where Rubiales was expected to resign - but he insisted he would not.

Although he apologised for grabbing his crotch, he vowed to "fight until the end" and said the kiss was "mutual, euphoric and consensual".

The Spanish government later began legal proceedings seeking to suspend Rubiales, before statements by Hermoso and Futpro on social media led to the latest response by the RFEF.

The RFEF provided analysis of four images and concluded that "the feet of Mr President are ostensibly raised off the ground as a result of the player's action"

'His ego is greater than his dignity' - reaction
Rubiales' defiant stance has been met with widespread condemnation.

Beatriz Alvarez, president of Liga F, Spain's top women's league, said: "His ego is greater than his dignity and honour.

"I think more people are going to join in but given the lack of determination of Luis Rubiales, other people are beginning to speak out."

During Saturday's game between Orlando Pride and San Diego Wave in the National Women's Soccer League in the United States, all players wore wristbands featuring the message 'Contigo Jenni' [With you Jenni].

They included USA striker Alex Morgan, who said on Friday: "I'm disgusted by the public actions of Luis Rubiales. I stand by Jenni Hermoso and the Spanish players.

"Winning a World Cup should be one of the best moments in these players' lives but instead it's overshadowed by assault, misogyny and failures by the Spanish federation."

I think the guy just got carried away out of joy. Secondly, I think both of them must have something secret going on for such incident to have taken place.

Weak military backup, the weapons I saw the Niger Delta Militants submitted to the Nigerian army as part of the amnesty during Yaradua's administration is far more sufisticated than what these troops are brandishing.

And yet we are still struggling to contain insecurities in Nigeria despite our sophisticated weapons.

I bet you Obi was never invited. He only attended the event on reading about it in Vanguard newspaper page 12.

Obi is so shameless and low budget pretender.

Lutherblaq:
They say Forgiveness is the firs step to fixing relationship issues. It gives you a window to understand the reason behind your partner’s actions.

Being cheated on is one of the most traumatic feelings one can go through in any relationship. There are times when the love and affection between two people decrease due to various factors.

Cuddles, romance, and communication become less frequent with time. It is in times like these either of the partners may search for love outside.

As a man/woman, tell us;
Can You Leave A Good Woman/Man Because They Slept With
Someone By Mistake?

There is nothing like slept by mistake.... you did it intentionally so there is no excuse about it....for me its game over, I will forgive you from my heart,no hard feeling but I can't accept you back again.

How a diehard despicable dirty stinking criminal like Peter Pandoraa Obi who was arrested personally in broad daylight by the then Lagos state commissioner of police Marvel Akpoyibo looting ₦250million naira monthly from Anambra to his warehouse at Orile in Lagos become a saint to Igbos need to be studied in the university.

As at today I am yet to know the difference between Ganduje collecting bribe n Peter Obi caught red handed with over ₦250 million raw cash yet Igbos call one a criminal n one a saint fit for the right side of Jesus.

You know the bible more than the people who have you access to the book?

For him not to totally condemn them means there's something we don't know or the contents of the remainder books

What are you saying oga, God is purely against homosexuality and is very clear in the Bible from the days of Sodom and Gomorrah.
The pope is just trying to keep his office and not offend some people instead of standing firm with the truth.

Am not an Atiku supporter but this wailing doesn't change the fact that the guy is made for life.

Nazgul:
I was listening to one of IBB's old interviews with channels TV on YouTube...and he said something that struck me.

He said soldiers usually take advantage of a collapsing economy to stage a coup. And most times the masses wouldn't protest cos they're feeling the heat of the economy, and would welcome them (the soldiers) with open arms with the hope that things would change for their good.

I also read an interview of a former chief of army staff Gen Dambazu here on Nairaland who said some powerful northern retired generals told him to overthrow Jonathan when Yar'adua died, but he choose not to follow their advice cos he felt that Nigeria would face serious sanctions from the West if he does it.

Tinubu should understand this. He literally witnessed all the coups in Nigeria from January 1966 till Diya's I'll fated coup of December 1997.

Nigeria isn't Lagos. If he tries to monopolize power, he might loose that seat. He shouldn't give the military any reason to come back.

I know so many people might say they would prefer the military. But we should know that the military we have now is totally different from the crop that ruled Nigeria back then. Our army is highly politicalized. Meaning there wouldn't be any difference between them and our current crop of corrupt politicans.

You are very much on point... soldiers nowadays collect bribe like policemen

HOW COULD ANYONE BE SO DAFT?SO,BCS THE VC WORKS IN DATTI'S SCHOOL,THE LATTER IS BETTER THAN THE VC?IS IT ONLY RICHES THAT MAKES ONE TO BE BETTER?YOU ARE SERIOUSLY DUMB!!

If it's easy, let the VC go and open his own private University or you can open your own because you guys are hurling insult on datti.
By the way I never said datti is better than the VC, am only reacting to your statement against datti because his employee was given a ministerial appointment. You started it.
You can't eat your cake and have it back.

Xpol:
someone can be an illiterate but rich so if such person employ a graduate to manage his business, does that mean he's better than the graduate?

This is about money and opportunity and being rich doesn't make one a better person, being and employee doesn't make one a lesser human too.

Some of you will just come here and be spilling rubbish because you have a phone to type from, so you mean datti that is a PhD holder is an illiterate. Wow, I think the drug you took is already making you go insane. You think say to own a private University is eba and soup. How many illiterate do you know that own a private University, pls list two for me .

AmotekunSW:
I didn't just say he is better than Datti, I said he is better than Obi and his dog Datti..

Well, he's about to be made a Federal Minister and so, he will now be better than everyone in your lineage put together.

Why are you ranting like a bull dog since you have nothing reasonable to say because you are supporting a drug Baron like your father.
Go and collect your 30k stipend as month don end because your suffer just start.
You are trolling a man that own a private University which your full generation can not build till Jesus come. I don't want to go obi side because he will be too much for you to handle. Go and verify

AmotekunSW:
Tahir Mamman was former DG of the Nigerian Law School. He's a SAN and former Governorship aspirant under Apc in Adamawa.
Tell us anyone from Datti's entire lineage with better credentials.

Mamman is better than Peter Obi and his dog Datti put together.

See how foolish you are, you claim he is better than datti but he is an employee to datti.
Then need to check you well

Am I the only one who thinks this man is not mentally stable?

Even from his moronic facial expressions all the time, you will find out he is not 100% ok

Deluded man!!!

The mandate thief is already out of his mind.

Depression has set in.

He keeps looking for what is not lost.

From looking for his stolen mandate that is not lost to looking for a phone he never lost.

May we not labour in vain

You are very foolish... there is nobody on earth that has not experience such situations, so I don't see the big deal here.
You are calling someone who is more successful than your whole generation put together unstable because you are supporting a drug Baron.
I think you are the mentally unstable person here to be supporting a known drug addict

001Lagos:
By Adekunle Sulaimon

World football body FIFA has announced its plan to pay prize money directly into the players’ accounts of the winners of the ongoing women’s World Cup in Australia/New Zealand.

FIFA Secretary-General, Fatma Samoura, confirmed this in a viral video on social media saying the policy change is due to unpaid allowance issues involving Nigeria’s Super Falcons.

The Falcons head coach, Randy Waldrum, had earlier revealed that some players were owed “per diem and bonuses” from two years ago.

The development caused a stir and almost affected the preparation of the Super Falcon players with most of them insisting on missing the training to protest their unpaid bonuses.

However, in the video, Samoura acknowledged that “things have been tough” for the Falcons.

Waldrum not afraid of potential England clash
She added that FIFA for the first time would monitor that match bonuses got to the players directly.

“I know that things have been tough. We have to face the realities of Nigeria. It pains me a lot. It is because of you (the Super Falcons) that, for the first time, the prize money has been ring-fenced in the history of FIFA to ensure that it goes to you,” the FIFA secretary-general said.
