elampiro: I am scared with the way our top goalscorer is missing chances. I will be more forgiving if Chicharito missed those chances. I expect RVP to finish them off. He had this squandering tendencies last season but we were too carried away to notice.

You are kidding right?
Missing chances? You've based this on what? A couple of pre season games?
Which striker doesn't miss chances...on this tour alone - kagawa and Welbeck have missed the most chances.
Do you know how many chances Suarez missed last season yet he and RVP were neck and neck at the top of the goal scoring chart
Rooney misses and so does Chicha.

elampiro: What I mean is that RVP doesn't do well aside the box. His build up play is not pleasing to me. He is only good around the 20 yard area. Plant him there (the 20 yard area) then get some intelligent guys to deliver the ball to him. That's what suit him.

You are being too harsh...he is decent outside the box. Good first touch and he can hold up play and bring people up in build ups plus he set up a decent amount of goals too.
He scored some wonderful goals outside the box or in and around the 18 yard box and not just tap-ins plus he was the arrowhead so most of the time he would be in the box.
He won't score as much goals if he was dangling outside the box. He is simply playing his role.

elampiro: Na coach sey make RVP and Kagawa dey miss one on one and a goal without a goal keeper?

RVP has missed one on one three or four times in this preseason. His overall team play in the build up is even questionable. Just to chip the goalkeeper he couldn't.

RVP is an inbox player who wait for hardworkers like Valencia and Rooney to find him in the 18 box. He is not a lion which goes to hunt but a Hyena which capitalizes on the goodies.

RVP an inbox player? Where have you been watching your games?
Lets say he is for a second. Do you expect every striker to be a "hunter" like you claimed.
Same way some CB's do the rough/dirty work and others tidy up or some CM's are attacking while some are defensive.
Fluidity and flexibility is imperative.

I also took a bet with dayokanu and Ruudie who was in 9ja. Ruudie paid through a friend's PayPal account who was in the UK.

So far we have 6 people interested

Yea...anything between 20-50 is fine.

But you guys need to remember 9ja participants won't have PayPal access...or do they have now?
I can only do PayPal
Plus PayPal charges and exchange rate meaning you might not get the exact amount of stakes after all the calculations and deduction.
I don't want anyone to come and start yarning thrash about mismanagement of funds in the future.

Meanwhile peeps interesting in betting on the FPL should go here -------> https://www.nairaland.com/1372903/fantasy-premier-league-betting

As we all know, a few peeps have suggested to place bets on this coming season's FPL.
Please show your interest if you are up for it with format, suggestions on stakes and quotas etc.

Thanks.


My own personal suggestion is the problem with logistics.
Most of you guys reside in different parts of the world and certain aspects needs to be put into consideration e.g. paypal, bank accounts, exchange rates etc but I'm sure there is a way round it.

For example, I took a bet recently between debosky and dayokanu on the Bayern vs Arsenal champions league match.
Dayokanu paid in dollars and debosky with pounds...PayPal charged a fee and also exchange rate affected the total number of stakes won.

But it's up to you guys...I can set up a private league for the interested parties and distribute the codes when everything is finalised.
Kindly bear in mind we only have a few weeks left before the start of the season so time is crucial...no long deliberation and majority's vote will count.

[quote author=A-40]Yup the ninjas that performed well in the so-called lower leagues should be in the FA cup! I saw people that didn't touch their teams almost the entire season in the FA cup and it was a tad depressing[/quote]Name them please
What else is a ninja supposed to do with only 30 slots available.
Loyika, nateevs, Duduspace and bad boys have all been relegated plus I've added 3 more slots for league champion, carling champion and conference champion.

kashmo: Finally, goons with some iota of sense! There you should be a relegation style format to help weed out underperforming Managers/teams. In all fairness, the top thirty from the main league deserves a shot at it too This should help curb the padi padi format we've been subjected to

Awe, there is no padi padi here now.
If it was padi padi you would have gotten the FA cup code too
Trying to be fair as possible...there is only 30 slots so I'm in a lose lose situation...some would get and some won't.
I can only do so much if you know what I mean.

Guys if I've sent you codes and you didn't get the mail, kindly drop an email addy so I can send there instead.
Thanks.

cheddarking: The African Mafia blud

I say I never see the ting na?

Please resend the codes Chairman

If you look up you'll see people saying they've got the codes...that's not my fault cos I've sent it.
Drop an email instead if you still can't get it.

[quote author=p_kasso]@chamotex I'm yet to get the codes for the H-2-H Leagues.Don't stretch my patience any further,bro! [/quote]Sent ages ago...drop an email then

cheddarking: Bredrin, I did not get dem codes.

Checked spam filter and all.

Resend please?

What's your team name again...already sent it

dare2think: Hey Chamo,

Can I have the codes pls. Plus the cup codes.

---

Regarding the monetary league I discussed with you earlier, I figures we ask folk first if they would be interested (I'm sure most will) and move from there.

1. I feel entrance fee should be in the region of £10- £20 (N2500- N5000)
2. Money sent to you and kept in a Trust with two respectable nairalanders in charge.
3. Winner takes 80% of the total and admin should take 20% for their troubles
4. Monetary prizes makes it more interesting!

Let me know if you think its a good idea.

Codes sent.
In regards to the betting...I'll need to set up another thread for that so as not to derail this and get people's opinion.
Will do that soon.

cheddarking: Yet to get the codes.

Carling Cup Champion and 8th Overall

TheAfricanMafia don't fucck about

I already sent you FA cup code days ago

seyi42k: Hi Chamotex,

I have not gotten the FA Cup H-2-H code. My team is Samba FC. I won the Nairaland Conference as well as finishing 14th in the main league.

Kindly send it to seyi42k at hotmail dot com.

Will be expecting. Thanks

Code sent

Chrisbenogor: Is there something else I have to do to get the codes?

Guy have you not been reading my posts?
You will get the other codes when they are ready.

lalaboi: Got my codes. . ose


Suggestion ---- it would be unfair if only the winners of the other h2h make it into the main h2h. . top 3 or top 2 atleast ( 6 or 4 places). . . people dashing awoof and those that came rock bottom are plentyfull in the FA cup.

Brother, shey English comprehension na your problem? I said only winners are guaranteed and I've repeatedly said there are spaces that will be allocated to others.
Abi make I give them your slot?
Yes 6 places for new slots...3 to the winners of main league, carling and conference and there will still be about 3 left which will still be allocated.
I fit vex comot you sef

mykali: Errh, Chamo. Is it possible that screenshots of how we finished last season can be uploaded?

I don't have it but if anyone does they can upload it. Bruv that screenshot doesn't look good for you so if I were you I'd be chilling in the background
Only have one for the top half.

lekkie073: Am not qualified as at yet . Noted. U mean i shd be on d queue for WEEKS? #What an insult.

I can't keep repeating my self...like I said before there are limited spaces so not everyone can get codes.
And I also explained that there are few places that are yet to be allocated to people from other leagues.
Make una do the maths na

Skoda baba: chamotex, please i need code for fa cup, h2h or conference...am only in the main league so far..my team name is walex fc...I need to be in at least one more...thanks

You will get code for either carling or conference. We are working on it

lekkie073: Chamotex, where is my code for fa cup. U want make i begin threaten u ba?

Guy, you do not qualify as at yet....like I said before only the winners of the main league and other leagues have a guaranteed spot.
There are limited spaces...please you guys should understand everyone cannot get FA cup code.

Lets see what happens in the coming weeks

omodapson: DAPMOSEFC. I am already in the main league but I need for the H2H, Pleaseeeeee

Will send you codes for the other H2H when it's ready

lekkie073: chamotex, it will be a great injustice if i fail to make the fa cup o. i finished 25th in npl while i finished 2nd in carling cup h2h. lekkie073@yahoo.com......

Only the winner is guaranteed but let's see how things pan out

feasy1: Chamo, Please pass me the FA cup code. Expecting H2H code too when its available.

I've sent you the code already.
