leunamme93: I see you lack value and pride for being called a Nigerian. Just watch out for the Nigerians that will shake this world, and Yes, i know you will be gnashing your teeth then. Dont ever think you are better than anyone here because you are just giving the privilege, you come here to rant all manner of rubbish. I don't want to insult you because you are a Nigerian, will always be and also to maintain the rules here in Nairaland. You see We Nigerians keep to rules and regulation.
don't feed a troll suffering from an identity crisis.......if you investigate his background, my £10 says he was conceived on a yam stall in onitsha market. grin


Desola: No, I don't think Nigerians are worse than the Eastern Europeans, very far from it.
goodie!

I was trying to highlight Britain's headache. See, to understand what is going on here, we need to understand a bit about the EU treaty signed by the UK. As much as the UK would rather have hardworking tax paying Nigerians in its Economy, it is bound to cater to EU citizens first whether they be miscreants or revenue generating. The point here is that the UK must fulfil its obligations under the EU and in order to do so, it has to check the population of its people by going for the jugular of the third word countries. If it does not cut immigration from the countries outside the EU, by the time Romania becomes part of the EU and the Romanians head for the UK, the UK would become severely overpopulated and its infrastructures would be stretched.
of course, i understand their pain and let's be honest, they are about the only country in the world that can tolerate the abuse of their immigration laws. nigeria will not even tolerate 1% of what the brits have taken all these years....

however, they need to be careful about how they go about these policies. the only solution in my own opinion is to give amnesty to the illegal immigrants. if they are all allowed to work, they would pay tax and that should cushion the effect on the pressure on the public funds.

boris johnson isn't stüpid when he called for this amnesty move but these brits are too intransigent. obama is about to give amnesty to the goons in the US. spain, france, etc have all given amnesty - why is britain so stubborn?

I'm sure you would hate to see London turn to another Lagos, wouldn't you?
it can never be lagos - the policing and the organisation is quite advanced.

Whichever way we choose to see the UK, it is still an attractive destination for foreigners for its economic viability and generous health services. Until the UK gets rid of social welfare, it would continue to b seen as a soft touch for all migrants.
very very attractive destination. just before the fasting began. arabs poured into knightsbridge....they all flew their sport cars with them to show off in london. heaven knows how much those kids spent in that short period.

that social welfare issue is another matter - what about the vulnerables? disableds? etc?

Desola: Having an influx of economic migrants who can seldom secure an 18k per annum job isn't exactly wise business move, is it?
but that £18k still gets taxed. they pay council tax directly or indirectly and they don't rely on the benefits to get by.

Moreover, the UK has too look out for its EU citizens first before worrying its head about third world countries. They have their own third world EU citizens in Romania and most East European countries to worry about.
these ones are actually the scroungers. they are the ones most likely to commit heinous crimes, depend largely on benefits and raise children like pigs.

Why waste time on those who would put head labour on their free NHS and social benefits. That's what the polish, romanians and other Eastern Europeans are there for.
so you think nigerians are worse than romanians? really? the romanians who practise the art of pocket-picking before coming to the UK. the romanians that have perfected the art of manipulating various cash points in the UK o siphon your money?

as far as crime is concerned in this country, nigerians are students to asians and romanians!

TheBookWorm: Is that so? I know many Nigerian-Americans living the American dream. Not living in some ghetto or on welfare like the ones in the UK.
the story is the same here. there are thousands of successful nigerians in the UK as well. there's no ghetto in the UK, no projects and the black population is not disproportionately represented in the UK prisons.

Nigerians have much easier chance of being successful in the US, than in the UK. In some US cities, they even welcome us like in Houston.
i doubt it......do you have any empirical statistics to back this up? this is not a playground of juveniles. print out the stats and let's compare.....throwing conjectures in the air will not cut the cheese.

It is the truth. The US is a land of immigrants, the UK is not. Deal with it.

eGuerrilla: Indeed coogar.

The emboldened portion of your post is what I find problematic in Desola's wholesale acceptance of this discriminatory policy.

desola is looking at it on the surface.....if she takes her time to properly assess what the policy is really about, she would make a U-turn. even my white colleagues believe the policy is quite racist!

Desola: .
Vince Cable of Lib Dem? That party lost the plot a long time ago and is probably rumbling to remain relevant.

Truth be told though, that country cannot continue to be run as it is. Immigration needs to be checked at all cost.
it's a coalition government and the lib dems insisted they were not told about the campaign. the immigration arm that needs to be checked are the 2.3 million romanians that are streaming in next year.

eGuerrilla: Even Cameron is dead set against it.
Let's recall he was over in India with a begging bowl not so long ago.
cameron can't do shyte - the controversy surrounding those issues were largely unexpected. the UK official in nigeria had to do a U-turn and offered a poor excuse. he said only applicants with a history of poor immigration record would be targeted or applicants that are considered high risk....

but it begs the question - if an applicant is considered high risk, why let him in? the policy in principle cannot be defended. it's mainly targeted against the people of black/brown skin - many of which are british colonies. americans, australians, etc always violate the immigration rules - why weren't they targeted?

MPs won't approve it. vince cable was on TV yesterday and he said the move is racist! the policy to let high risk migrants pay a bond and the notorious ads asking illegal immigrants to leave are all racist moves according to mr. cable. in this age of political correctness, theresa may won't survive the outrage!

afrodoc: U divided cech nd de gea's total minutes played by their total clean sheets to get their minutes per clean sheet at abt 228 and 229 respectively.and u claimed because de gea at 229 was higher than cech at 228 that mean de gea with d higher number was better.now do the same thing for d rest of d keepers esp the otondo ones like myhill,tremmel. And rob green
you cannot apply the direct proportion because they had one clean sheet in all the minutes they played. myhill had one clean sheet in only 90 minutes of the 720 minutes played.

don't be confused to think he did not concede at all in the 720 minutes he played. if he did not concede, he should have 8 clean sheets, instead of the one they all have in their columns. the direct proportion will not work here.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 12:21pm On Jul 29, 2013
afrodoc: cheesy u r even more confused! grin divide myhills minutes played by his number of clean sheets to get his minutes per clean sheet.exactly d way u divided for cech and de gea .wat do u come up with? Now do the same for robert green and al habsi. It should be clear even to u by now.
now this is mathematics.....
because they have 1 clean sheet, you cannot apply the direct proportion unlike the others who have more than 1 clean sheet. jeeeez, why is this so confusing to you? in minutes, myhill and boaz have just 90 mins of clean sheets.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 12:06pm On Jul 29, 2013
afrodoc: Lol u r so disingenuous! Ur point was the higher d minutes per clean sheet d better d keeper hence de gea better than cech while my point is the lower d minutes per clean sheet d better d keeper.so from your table calculate the minutes per clean sheet of boaz myhill and robert green and compare it to that of cech and de gea
you are confused

boaz myhill has 1 clean sheet in 8 games, it means he conceded goals in 7 of the remaining games. he only had a clean sheet in 1 game which is less than 90 mins.

the 1 clean sheet in their column have you confused but it does not mean per clean sheet. it means they only kept clean sheets in only one game and conceded in the other remaining games unlike cech and de gea.

the only clean sheet myhill kept was against west ham....which is 90 mins. the only clean sheet robert green had in a starting line up was against reading. so how can you say they kept a clean sheet for 720 mins and 810 mins respectively?
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar:
Fabville: You are the one getting it wrong. There is nothing wrong in what he has computed up there. The longer the minutes per clean sheet the better.

If a goalkeeper jeeps a clean sheet for 120 mins and another keeps for 130 mins. Which is better? It is obviuos that it is the one that keeps it for 130 mins.
afrodoc must have just woken up from sleep. he's reading the stats upside down.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 11:14am On Jul 29, 2013
afrodoc: u r d one getting it way wrong.pls study d stats table given.it is not minutes of clean sheet but minutes per clean sheet. There is a difference.it is not how many minutes of clean sheet d keeper has that is meant here but How many minutes a keeper has to keep before he gets one clean sheet.that's y u see cech,de gea nd joe hart having some of d lowest in the entire league(it takes dem less minutes to get a clean sheet than d other keepers) .I explained very clearly in an earlier post.the keepers that kept just 1 or 2 clean sheets have way higher numbers than cech,de gea or even hart (check myhill,robles etc.
don't make me laugh - myhill has 1 clean sheet in 9 games, the other had 1 clean sheet in 8 games. this means. how could they have had more minutes before conceding when they conceded in all games but one each?
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 10:43am On Jul 29, 2013
afrodoc: Looooool u have moved to a new stat now (one that appears to favour ur side of d debate).lmao. Well I wasn't arguing wit u on who is better.just wanted to point out d error in d conclusion u made from d 1st stat. D stat on minutes per clean sheet says cech is better. D stat on clean sheets as percentage of matches says de gea is better.
cech couldn't have been better on minutes per clean sheet. the longer the minutes, the better. 270 mins of clean sheets is better than 200 mins of clean sheets.

nigerian gutter press in action - how do they know for sure this wasn't a suicide case? 2 women and a husband in a love triangle, one woman died via poison. the general simplistic conclusion = the other 2 connived and killed the deceased.

no forensic, no credible evidence, just hearsays from the deceased's brother who would naturally be angry and he's bound to draw his own conclusions. who did he report to when the deceased "allegedly" told him she was being threatened?

afrodoc: Cmon u know dt was just an example ,I believe u understand wt I am driving at. Ok let's say d keeper X has 30 clean sheets in 3000mins making the average 100 mins per clean sheet would u rate de gea ahead of dt keeper based on those stats? Analyse ur stats carefully nd understand them.d stats u highlighted show dt in terms of clean sheets cech is better than de gea
cech played 3195 mins = 36 matches
de gea played 2520 mins = 28 matches

cech kept 14 clean sheets in 36 matches
de gea kept 11 clean sheets in 28 matches

the closer to 100%, the better the goalie, right? a keeper that keeps 9 clean sheets in 10 games is better than the one that keeps 3 clean sheets in 10 games.

cech, 14/36 = 38.8%
de gea, 11/28 = 39.3%

i ask again, who is better?
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by coogar: 10:04am On Jul 29, 2013
afrodoc: . Err coogar u actually didn't interprete that stat d right way.wat it explains is how many minutes it takes to get a clean sheet I.e MINUTES PER CLEAN SHEET so d lower d figure the better(meaning cech is better in dis stat).to explain u see rob elliot wit 1 clean sheet in 834mins and myhill wit 1 clean sheet in 720mins meanind their numbers according to ur equation are 834 and 720 respectively! Dt shud make it obvious that d lower d figure d better d stat for d keeper.for example keeper X with 50 clean sheets in 3000mins will end up with a figure of 60
how can you have 50 clean sheets in 3000 mins when 3000 mins is less than 34 matches? come on - my statistics make sense. is it possible to have more clean sheets than the number of games?

nitlad: At least I still have an iota of it, however infinitesimal - compared to you with no traces of it whatsoever.
you think you do, but you don't.....

Exception don dey dey now abi? What was then your aim of bringing incomplete stats forward, presenting same as though it was the long lost Hadith recently excavated from Medina? To hoodwink Manure simps that De Gea is better than all of Yashin, Zoff and Schmeichel combined? You are a joker.
even your petr cech voted de gea as the best goalkeeper he's seen in his lifetime.

Which one make we believe between 2 and 4 nah? Even you yourself are as confused as your möronic statisticians....
4 games...

This proves nothing other than lend more credence to FourFourTwo's and Opta's submission that Cech was the League's best last season!
the math is simple - the only reason cech had more clean sheets than de gea is because cech played more minutes. if you compute the number of clean sheets per minute, de gea wins by a distance.

cech - 3195/14 = 228.2 mins

de gea - 2520/11 = 229.1 mins.

de gea has a full minute over cech. cech concedes goals quicker than de gea. that there is the difference between the 2 goalkeepers.

elampiro: If the defence is too far backward from the attack, that will leave too much to be chased? Don't you think so? Pique, Mascherano, and co don't seat with the goalkeeper. You can't even outpace them. Neyman is the first man I saw running past them with ease.
our defenders don't sit with the goalie....rio/vidic drift up the pitch to the centre-circle. it's the fault of the front six that has the fault. if the keeper is rolling the ball to a defender to start an attacker, every player of ours in the front six should be pressing them to force elementary mistakes. we don't do that at all.....sometimes, you can fit a titanic in the gap we leave unmarked in the middle of our half.

montelik: Well said. All this destroyer talk is exaggerated and unnecesary. We can always convert Jones if we are desperate. What we need is a central midfielder with energy and mobility, not some cement mixer masquearding as central midfielder or a buzz-saw flying into challenges. Solid central midfielders with good energy levels, mobility with and without possession and good use of the football.
jones is useless in the midfield. he doesn't even know where to stand. he's like a deer in my headlights, very confused plus he cannot pass. his career should be in the defence.
