I wish they put me in charge of the football agency that will force clubs to goan enter studio and compose their own unique club anthems. What's this rubbish Rivers United were playing? This same old paranran of 90s Super eagles? Are they that stale and lazy to creative something different from national teams? Even the national team paranran needs change sef. Argghhhh

Getting dispossessed in such a casual manner was wrong. That's what he apologised for.

As for the goal, it was Raya a fault 100/100
You strike again. Raya was not in a totally wrong zone with us in possession for that error. That's why Zubi takes the full blame cos he saw 2 coming onto him and was trying to do prime time Busquets/Partey. Raya could have been faster but that error was 90% on Zubi. Try putting the blame on who caused it to happen abeg. Getting dispossessed is the least expected for Zubi. He got callous. Call a spade a spade nowwwww. Cheiiii

Poor 2nd half.
We've been having funny, poor 1st half this season. But baba decided it must happen this 2nd half. Looks like some deliberate act cos the Burnley team grew as though we were 10men. No need to sweat after 2-0 lol. I wanted more though. Especially Rice and Gyokores scoring again. Cala fumbled those sweet big chances and e pain me gaan. The consolation is the defense were alert and on their top level.


He seem to be Targeting the Mou Record. It is possible. We are 1/3 of the way in already and im thrilled at this clean sheet.

This attack will gbera fully especially as the quartet of Odegaard, Kai, GJ, Noni returns. What a squad.


Me still wondering why Norgaard sha. Seriously.

Tennis 🎾 has not falling off, rather I think you are the one that has lost interest in it.
Alcarez and Sinner are the young guns ruling the world of Tennis today and I can beat my chest and say these 2 would have done same thing during the time of Federar, Nadal, Djokovic, Murray, Juan Martin Del Potro, etc
Oga mi, Tennis has fallen off. You can't watch those aforementioned and not admit this. Football fans used to discuss football and switch effortlessly to Tennis in discussions among the boys that years, even the mendem.

Now who dey follow like before? Where's that drive and competition? Asides Alcarez and Coco, who is making that game near as used to be?

The world cup qualifiers might actually make us win the nations Cup. This is because it will sharpen us as a team. We will now go into the nations cup with a mini tournament behind us. If we make it through the world cup qualifiers our confidence will be sky high. We will then be a different animal in the nations cup.

Just finished watching Akinsanmiro stop a 2 v 1 situation on the Pisa Right Flank (Lazio's left), won the duel and came away with the ball.

He played only 25mins+ off the bench but won the most tackles in the game (3).
He shows his quality yet again.

Yet someone will come and say Akinsanmiro is weak and not strong enough or fast. Fallacious takes.
He and Eletu should be sniffing call ups alongside Kayode. Infact I'll prefer the trio than any for Tosin right now.

I see you were a superb fans of complete sports and it's sisters publications, yes I look forward to every Thursday and weekends for both Mumuni and The Mathematical,

Pitifully the paper is no longer in print, I miss that paper like madt


On Pinnick, there is something we must come to terms with when judging as per the funds he received, the exchange rates during his time and now are two major things,

I only defended him on whats on ground, as per those revealing things coming to lights,

To be honest we must look back to know where it came from, cos the one presently on ground the $1.2m kebbi stadium, many are using today's exchange rates to judge him on it
It was a must buy that year😎😎
The leaders in that era could control how print media went. But since the social media came, we've been seeing more than we ever imagined, that's why they hate it with passion.
Sad the paper wrapped up as they couldn't fully transition to online. For transitioning, i give Punch Newspaper kudos. E no easy but they pulled it off. Goal com too was a must visit then. Lol.



As for this man, even if the exchange rate was low then, if we use the eval of today value to judge him based on what such funds could do, he becomes a bigger devil. That's why I'm less bothered about if it was 360/$ or 9000/$
The man tiff no be small.

Some of the others didn't even see funds and so they replaced it with incompetence and corruption, nepotism. This one? He saw funds like water. Like water. Mehnn...

Bottomline

Shame on Lagos!!!
Where Govt and the Trad Rulers are more concerned with Aesthetics and PR than with making that city way better than Nairobi or Windhoek.

They're trying to silently prove that without FG, they have no grand plan to be a top world destination for tourists to come and splash funds the way they do at Rio de Janeiro, Banjui, Capo Verde, or even Zanzibar.


They boast of trillions annually but even Accommodations issues are less important than demolition works.

Lagosians deserve better. A former capital city deserves even wat better. A city with ports of such magnitude deserves the roads leading to the ports to be multilayered, topnotched and even a cargo train ought to be in place by now. But here we are.


I'll leave the dirtiness to others to harp on.
RomanceRe: The Silent Epidemic Of “billing Relationships” by daveP(m): 1:42pm On Oct 30, 2025
Blame Men that feel that they can't demand more from women once in a relationship. They just want their money to be eaten while she slays and all that.

The truth is many women will always see that kind of man. They take those stuff as care compared to the non-monetary ones sadly. The men involved don't mind. But they rather keep such as trophy and find one that connects genuinely to them. Infidelity? Still bad all the same.

Poverty is tye foundation. But many ladies are not seeing the opportunity to be the fore of changing the poverty status their own way. They want the 1% of the 1% to do that for them.


Billing is not a good guage to know a serious person ladies. Use it to chase guys all you want but you'll be increasing the ones that won't feel the billing but will deny you the freedom your owns self needs day to day.


Lastly, Men need to do better. What do you have aside this bag? How are you helping your fellow men and families to set up what's permanent so they ladies in your families don't end up in this sinkhole?

Everyone to their own anyway

If he wants to use that verse to justify association with darkness, there's a 100 more than can be quoted.

I see he can't deal with it and it's making him all the more defensive which isn't good. Hopefully i hope he is restored fully to the truth because of what he represents and the influence he has.


This is how Kirk Franklin was that year. If he was fully confident, he won't be having track records of repenting and going back and then repenting and rinse and repeat.

Mumini Alao articles and the Mathematical and Solace Chukwu columns daily, weekly that year. I can't forget.


The success of teams in our sports barely transcends from good leadership. I've learnt that a long time ago to never mix the two.

That 2013 success, they'll attach it to nff president. Lmao. The wafcon we just won, they'll do same for Gusau and Madugu. Lol

Format is win something and then what follows is terrible administration covered by that lone success.

But you see this Pinnick??

This man gat the funds combined of the last 3 NFF bosses and he squandered it in a Wolf of Wall Street way. That's a huge huge devil there. Forget all those PR he was a genius at. I loved it too. But those funds were enough to return all the National Teams to compete with the best of Europe if they went in the right coffers. Im judging him mainly on a what would have been.

Heck more exposure comes to light and now I'm on the "what more do i not know mehn?" Level.

Kai played as an AM when he joined not as a striker. SonI would not have laid a goals burden on him.

As a matter of fact, I don't put any burden on Gyokeres to score goals beyond what he has done. It's was only in reaction to those who feel he should have a Haalandesque effect.
Lol.

This is my issue with you.

When he was on a goal drought and they gave him pk to open confidence for him, where was he playing in our lemon jersey?

Overall, me didn't expect him to cos of Arteta factor. I knew he is capable of doing Auba numbers in an instant (Arteta enjoyed that yet refused to get such striker all the while. Lol)
So im just on a "this man wan dey use Gyo a different way and then everyone is not looking, maybe unleash him like Haaland" mode.

It will be all the more lethal when Kai and GJ returns.
