U can only nominate one person.

Nominate who u want. Just by the mention he will be available.

Just like TheSuperNerd has just showed face.

Note that you are still yet to nominate.

It's late already. Cos id love to see everyone nominate the 3 in one shot. Which means that now, the highest get to be in the commitee instead?!!!

Should I now fry Plaintain cos of someone's legs that are for walking? You want is to comment on this aspect of your life, but when we opine the truth, it's then fans turn to haters? I'll pass. Hot ko, Siberian Cold ni!!


Anyway Liverpool should get ready to walk alone come Saturday. The Nutmeg Prince will destroy the Kops.

What's my own concern. It's only in Nigeria that something that is basic to humans and citizens is used to score cheap political points. Pls do your duty and stop doing like its one heavenly news that would make Nigerians dance shaku shaku come December.

This woman needs to direct her funds to getting the next football stars that Africa needs to see. She can start a state of the art football club in Nigeria or an academy that would bring out very good investment even if she isn't after money cos of her position so far. But the society would be grateful for that step to affect 1000s of peeps.


Fire can gut the tower one day and who cares if it was diamonds used to build it. why cos it's not for people.


Let her just invest in people.

didn't watch the match but Guendozi got a red.... wow.

BascoVanVeli:
How do u expect the baby to cry because u removed his wet diaper? The question should be do the clubs even care that the slots are taken? See how they just agreed that Lobi will be champions. They won't say it but our clubs don't fancy continental football. These are people who can't even book hotel for their players after matches just know they would volunteer to book international flights and pay for up keep.

I remember listening to Akwa United's chairman on Naija Made after we failed to make it into the group stage and he said that we lost because there are no good players in Nigeria to sign. That being true or false was not my concern but what stopped him from going to other countries to find quality players? These are things one must do to succeed on the continent but how many of our clubs do this?

Lol at your description.


Imagine such a statement by the chairman.


For the 3rd year in a row now, our league seems to be playing catch up.


Why can't they just align with this calendar that other CAF top teams are using?

Saw the split up format of the League and I wept.

The league needs the services of a dozen experts. But something always kill the efforts of these peeps and progress is conclusively alien to these peeps.

Ask most of these teams what they see the club doing in 5yrs time, you'll know they are just fooling around.

Odunayaw:
In the coming season after '19 we'd be back to having twos in both competitions

Very disappointing nonetheless

I pray so cos Even the best from the league are trying to pass the message that a very standard, pretty looking pitch cannot guarantee flair and success.


I believe though.

Lalasticlala congrats, though this is coming late, I'm very happy for you man. Finally a father. What's next? PA to Governor and then Governor?!!

Help Greet her for me!! One love Bro.

Only those who know, know how it all started. Now the journey is really taking shape very fast... God bless the new born!!!! and God bless you two too!!!


And so Ironically, also, this is my 13000th post on NL. Twale boss!!!

Thank you for the observation and this comment.

Firstly, though I personally do not condone insults but there is nothing demeaning about any discussions or arguments going on here. Fact that people are arguing viciously a course here only goes to show the deep concern some of us have about Nigerian football.

Davep, I have always known you on this thread but have also known u are not among those regular contributors. I bet you to get more involved in discussions and see if you will not find yourself in one heated argument or the other. Yes, that is what it is "heated arguments".

There is nothing happening here now that has never been happening before. These arguments are what keep the thread going. A lot of us do not do insults here because we always know when to stop when the heated arguments are beginning to go over the roof.

There are some people who cannot just look away when certain skewed information are being posted here. If anyone has any reason to oppose any view he should be ready to back it up with valid facts. That's all!

As long as we all remain on this thread there is no way we will all reason alike. And so you should expect more heated arguments to continue.

However, as we have always cautioned, ''do not blow below the belt''.

Wow.


I'm around but in observation mode since one incident that turned the way this thread was from inception. I've been here at the beginning and 5000pages old, I'm still here. Contribution-wise, I cant take any hero trophy for that, like I said above. But I've been involved in arguments, you just missed cos it wasn't major. That's all. Was just busy, but at free time, here is home. And I wish it's still home cos arguments were once taken in a respectful way in like now that insults are flying like group of migrating birds all over.


The Pep Guadiola argument I had with The GoodJo spanned more than 47pages and both of us didn't even insult ourselves then. That was heated!!! Until the supernerd Issue....


So I'd still very much be on the stance that whether heated or chilled, let things go in such a way that we don't turn it to an abusive contest.


This has birthed the current psychology of the thread being an all "you must know all or keep shut" Kinda thread. Something we both know wasn't like that before.


Overall, I hope for the best, just like you do. And nevertheless, we'll get there if we all agree.

Taliban:
At that time when lesser teams played the UEFA CL, I didn't know it was average teams that get to the Q finals. Cheslea weren't average then.

I know they played Europe, but it wasn't cos they were good. Just like Arsenal situo under Wenger those years when he lost it. That's what I mean.

Talking of invitations for local players, CAF just reduced the slots of NPFL for continental competitions.

Libya takes our slot due to consistency and how far theyve gone in the competition.

I think this would be a wake up called to the stakeholders of the NPFL.


We are now to provide only one team for the two competitions instead of the usual 2 we've enjoyed since 2004 when that format was introduced. Cameroun also gets to keep their two slots as usual.


Bascovanveli, what's your take on this. I guess the sound of the music is getting more rocky!!! Hmm

elyte89:
Some persons emotions are so irrational when it comes to reacting to someone else opinion on dis thread, we re use to it anyway,we cant reason d same way

I find it so demeaning and very mannerless for one to just start up insults cos someone opined differently from what everyone know or says? Can't someone be wrong in peace and be corrected in peace again ni? Must we all align in facts, figures and vigor? I find that really low. Not to talk of how those that feel like Legends or Echelon Informants acting like everyone on here is way low and should be so cos they aren't well informed like they are.


I think we'll should learn from tbaba1234 that doesn't rub such down people's shoulders and let's us all just chill to think.


The idea and common knowledge that some sect on here refuse to change stance however is not hidden and as usual, they fire shots, and should expect shots especially if they know that bias in the face of truth is their stance. Else let's all respect each other pls. No one is gonna win a title worth millions of dollars for knowing it all, neither is the jjc on here going to continue being a jjc. Hell yeah, he or she can't with the way information is dropped on here daily.

Let's return to Sanity days pls.


Gracias!!!

tbaba1234:
Babayaro had serious injury challenges at the end of his career. This is what affected him the most. There was a time, he was out for more than a year.

I think, he was the most technically gifted/skilful left back.

Taiwo was also very talented .

I dunno but I think Taiwos's Trophy cabinet is way larger than Babayaro overall. Yeah Chelsea were really average an epl. team then. So Babayaro played for one average team and a relegation threatened team that were actually hotter and top ranked than Chelsea then. I'll give Taiwo.... But Babayaro sef was a fine LB.

abeg who join me in reading g only the title of the thread?

This one sef wetin he sabi?
Nebuchadnezzaran Beneficiary!!!

one of the many causing stress for the e word actress.

tbaba1234:
The worst invitation is that of Ezenwa, the man does not play every week but continues to get invited. Our journalists should ask Rohr tough questions.

Oh, There'll be no need for asking. We know the cabal was just taking a nap, seems the nap is over. Agu and Ezenwa again!!!

junnyjake:
I seriously don't know how to react to this list.

But it's all good.

Rem the time Agu was always on the list but didn't play? Now I feel like those pushing for his inclusion have started pulling strings again. Cos that middle is really really thin. Gosh. Iwobi can join them and make us forget it was just three.

charlesemeka85:
him no falter for laliga and world cup na for south africa em go falter. prophet of doom!

Hey don't be foolish pls. I didn't pull tantrums.


You doing like you didn't watch the Libya game? Wonder what such a prophet would be doing commenting positive if he was truly one. swerve pls!!!

chiscodedon:
Finally Chukwueze made the list... Take it easy with Rohr.
Osimehn must have been inform to make the list.... Haven't been following his progress in his new club lately... But why just 3 midfielders..? Nice to see Agu back, the dude hasn't really been given time in GWG
Who's Adeleye..?

Looking more like this is a game of counterattack. We would leave the middle to the SA to boss but make it hard to attack us, but long balls and counters would do the deal. Iwobi is key so we don't need such control. I hope this is what Rohr has in mind, cos he sef dey fear me these days.

gamaliel9:
Uzoho with a brave save on the line

the Sa boys like to fire shots alot, I hope this young man don't falter when the ovation is loudest!!!

isan:
hehehe come and see academy players they are all above 30

wonder which age dem wan put for dem now. the oldest looking one fit claim 18 like that now. SMH.

safarigirl:
I'm just wondering....what if NFF had tried harder to get Ross Barkley? The guy is becoming something else.....see how we allow great talents slip away

Like the Nigerian Military, The NFF don't have such convincing power to make this guy's straight head to tilt to the GWG angle one bit.

I'm not in support of violence anyday, but if the people's of Nigeria are determined to put this evil government to check, not even the military that is under equipped or techless, can be able to stop the peoples power.

See injuries these guys are brandishing?


They are actually not the problem irrespective, the ogas at the top are the real problem to me.


Save Nigeria!!!

The hate will go on, till they chant Blessed is He that cometh in the name of the Lord.


Hmm.

Ahhh, we must leave a Nacho talks till further notice... abeg make we dey celebrate how Success scored and how Ndidi did well so far. Shuu. Up Ndidi!!!

Unlimited22:
How the hell can you relate that to a pineapple?
You check na.
Especially considering the face...










Modified: 5k baby!!!
More wins to the GWG!!!!!

Thats what I heard, so I just passed it on as he was quoted in the newspapers, blogs.




Not me that called it pineapple o. Irony fa.

You just dey crack me up today.
I no be palm nut o

(in psquare accent) ayam unbreak-a, unbreakable, very unshak-a, unshakable....


no mind me joor.

krattoss:
ndidi is still In action.. He got lucky not to be injured by that rash tackle.
Dude is a rock.. Can't remember last he experienced injury.

And he is becoming a good passer of the ball.

I think his stock is rising cos he combines his own raw talent with the coach's instruction like against Arsenal. Before the same coach ruined the flow.

I see him going far. He is Ndidic like a Pillar!!


Modified-This milestone of 5000 pages is dedicated to the Success of Ndidi as he turns Victor(Germany) With Alex by his side considering that Jude(Chinko)and Samuel(Spain) are his armourbearers.


Alex Iwobi wobi!! Alex Iwobi!! (ah like to movit movit, ah like to... movit!!! new chant by Arsenal fans for our superstar)

A pineapple? A PINEAPPLE?
