European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Fabio Capello Resigns As England's Manager by dayokanu(m): 8:36pm On Feb 08, 2012
Fabio Capello has resigned as England manager with the European Championships just four months away.

The Italian took the decision following a meeting with chairman of the Football Association David Bernstein at Wembley earlier today.

Capello is believed to have been angered by the FA's decision to strip John Terry of the England captaincy and made his feelings public on Italian television on Sunday.

"I would like to stress that during today's meeting and throughout his time as England manager, Fabio has conducted himself in an extremely professional manner," said Bernstein.

"We have accepted Fabio's resignation, agreeing this is the right decision. We would like to thank Fabio for his work with the England team and wish him every success in the future."

Capello had been due to step down from the position following the conclusion of the upcoming tournament.

The FA will be holding a press conference at 12pm tomorrow afternoon

Every striker in the world miss easy chances, Messi does, Ronaldo does, Gomez does, Demba Ba, RVP does

But not every striker scores 5 goals in one calendar year

Who would complain of RvP after scoring 20 goals? Who would complain of Torres if he scores goals regularly and miss some

You send a pass to Torres istead of taking the shot, he spends the whole time dressing the ball till defenders take it away.

So almost 6 weeks without Drogba interference and Torres still cant score after we have blamed everything in the world for him.

Even some advocated that Defenders should vacate the field and opposing keepers should turn his back if we want Torres to score

Which barca?  Whats different between the Spanish NT which he failed woefully at and Barca

Would it not be the same Busquets, Villa, pedro, Pique, Xavi, Iniesta etc?

He is a top player whose mental strength has disappeared.
The ability is clearly there as he's shown in the past.
He remains a Chelsea player, still 27.
And for as long as he still remains a Chelsea player, some of us will continue to believe he will come good.
The ability he showed in the past is as flukish as what Alfonso Alves and SWP showed sometime in the past or what Santacruz and Arshavin showed in the past.

Some people are already finished before age 27 Check Quaresma. You can still continue to believe he would come good since the only thing you lose if he doesnt is your NL bragging right.

If you are the coach whose job is on the line, Keep playing Torres and also make a bid for Andy Carroll and hope they would make it  someday which they might but would only be after the coach has been sacked

Is it true that there was no city called Ibadan before 1829? The Ibadan indigenes today were from Oyo(50%) Ife(25%) Ijebu(25%) approximately.
LOL at the bold.

About the existence of Ibadan it might be true

One thing about debates is it doesnt have to be about facts Actually it does so little with facts but just flowery words emotions etc

E.g Look at the Debate before the South carolina primary where Gingrich laid into John King, You would know John King asked a legitimate question but Gingrich being a good debater turned it around attacking the media and won applause on the night and the votes on the day.

Debating is a skill I think Barack has more than these candidates Newt would come close

Dayokanu, I will say they (Benny Hinn and wife) didn't do enough diligence to keep it again.

OP has a legitimate thing to worry about.  He asked for reasons why it is worth it and I tried to give him some.  Marriage is a better way than siring kids with numeorus partners all over the place.  That is what I call irresponsibility but some will want us to think it is acceptable behaviour.  To them I say all the best.
I disagree with your first statement.

That their marriage failed is not necesarily because they didnt do their due diligence.

Would you say all businesses that fail was because the owner didnt do his due diligence?

Mitt Romney is considered a succesful businessman because he has run many succesful businesses yet he has ventured into some businesses that failed In this businesses he employed the best brains, the best consultants did all he could but the business still failed.

The point is the same due diligence Romney did on the businesses that succeded was the same he did on those that failed.

Benny Hinn who was in marriage for 30yrs, have counselled millions into building succesful marriages yet failed in his own, What concept of building a succesful marriage do you think is strange to him?

Coogar, how did they end up with whores as housewives?  Reasonable other halves abound if you do your diligence to seek him/her!  But most people won't.  Who goes to buy something and won't seek for good ones to buy?  There is seeking to be done in before committing to marriage.
I disagree with this. People who marry the wrong spouse did their due diligence but being human, people change. The loving person of today might become hateful 10-20yrs down the line.

People like Benny Hinn divorced after many years together, Bob Johnsons wife divorced him after over 20yrs together.

Would you say these ppl didnt do their due diligence before getting married?

OP is not only scared of the woman he might end up with, he is also scared of commitment.  He is not sure if marriage is worth it and asked for reasons why it is.  Read his posts very well.  For your information marriage is practical and requires mutual hardwork and commitment for it to blossom.  Mine is in it's 11th year and we are just changing to the 2nd gear!  wink
Given circumstances and happenings around especially with divorce and how some partners are stripped of all they have ever worked for after a divorce.

Dont you think its a legitimate thing to worry about?

You work for 30yrs at age 50 when you have a very big house and about to retire, your wife got bored of you, divorced, took all you have including your house and you have to go find an apartment to live at age 47 while she brings in her new bf to come live in your house with her.

She was smart enough not to marry the new bf so she can still collect Alimony and Child Support from you to take care of her new BF.

These things happen so wouldnt any rational human worry about this possible eventuality which pervades our society nowadays?

Knowing that women are usually the most delighted about getting married.

A lot of women have been dreaming about their wedding day since they were teenagers while for most guys they would rather just go to court and cut the BS

[quote author=Sam_Ikenna link=topic=864776.msg10146125#msg10146125 date=1328655609]However, what I would not do is to go about insulting or hating on your own people because I love mine. If I truly love my people I would try my best not to bring carnage to them, I would make friends for them, negotiate for them, take insults because of them, take beatings from you or anyother person because of them. So, I'm not in the middle, I'm with my people and there is no shame in that just as you are with yours and you're loving it. [size=18pt]I believe since you love yours, hopefully you respect mine, and I love mine (you know I respect yours) we can help in separating them a little. We can do this by calling out any NLder from our respective groups that enjoys ethnic bashing. Its not going to be the silver bullet but it sure will make a little difference. For a start you can start by writing Igbo in capital [I], need I tell you that I always write Yoruba in capital [Y]? I do so because respect, they say, is reciprocal[/size].[/quote]If you can commit to this to call some of your guys to order this forum would be better.

Look around you would see Igbo posters bashing Yorubas today, Hausas tomorrow, Middle beltans next, SS after.

I can give you post for each if you need it. Within the last few days

Most ppl that were neutral or indiffirent became nauseated by their attitude and decided to give them a dose of their own medicine back

And what you should know is that, Just because someone doesnt respond does not mean he doesnt know what to say

We know who the lineage of cowards are in case you are confused, Ask Effiong

When Biafra's military resistance collapsed, [size=28pt]Ojukwu fled to Côte d'Ivoire[/size].

Efiong assumed leadership in this situation of turmoil, starvation, and collapse. He became Head of State of Biafra on 8 January 1970 and on 12 January announced surrender.[1]

At the time of the surrender, Efiong believed that the situation was hopeless and that prolonging the conflict would have led only to the further destruction and starvation of the people of Biafra. At that time Effiong said, "I am convinced now that a stop must be put to the bloodshed which is going on as a result of the war. I am also convinced that the suffering of our people must be brought to an immediate end."[1]

Nnaemeka L. Aneke wrote, "General Efiong’s handling of Biafra’s surrender is one of the most tactical and devoted maneuvers ever seen on the Nigerian scene. Those who do not appreciate the depth of it may not have appreciated what was at stake as Biafra capitulated."[2] Many observers had expected wholesale retribution at war's end.
[edit]

Later life


In a 1996 interview, Efiong reflected on those events:

I have no regrets whatsoever of my involvement in Biafra or the role I played. The war deprived me of my property, dignity, my name. Yet, I saved so many souls on both sides and by this, I mean Biafra and Nigeria. . . .

I felt that I played a role which has kept this country united till today. . . .

At the end of it all when I saw they (Biafran soldiers) could no longer continue and [size=28pt]Ojukwu had fled[/size], I did what was ideal after wide consultation . . . [2]

Efiong died 6 November 2003, at the age of 78 less than two weeks before his 79th birthday.
The b1nch fled the war front and left the populace to die

What a shame to war generals.

God bless Effiong a true general who waited not the biatch who fled

[quote author=Kilode?! link=topic=864525.msg10146197#msg10146197 date=1328656342]DK's ancestors (Ogbomoso) were warriors in their own right too though,

I once read that the town acted as a place of refuge for warriors escaping from war, they felt safe within the walls of ogbomoso, that is big deal.[/quote]
As to the topmost warrior class in northern Yorubaland, Samuel Johnson's 'History of the Yoruba' shows that the largest contingent of holders of the coveted and dreaded Aare Ona Kakanfo come from Ogbomoso. Here we remember the likes of Toyeje, Ojo Abunimaku and Ladoke Akintola, Ajala Agbe, omo Jalodo.

Kilode,

Ogbomoso . Why do you think the title of the ruler is Ajagungbade

On the night of January 15, 1966, a company of soldiers marched on the residence of the Premier, Western Region. Akintola omo Loogun, Ajalaagbe omo kulodo, yagboyaaju omo kara, took up arms against Nigeria’s first coupists and fought them till daylight, before he was mortally wounded. Eyewitness accounts have it that hours later, with his body riddled with bullets, he was still breathing and remained so until he gave up the ghost at sunset.
Kakanfo Ojo Aburumaku had no war to fight. He fomented a civil war in his native Ogbomoso which he then had a good sport of putting down with severity. Afterall, he was Aare Onakakanfo, the Supreme head of the Esos, the 70 military commanders who make the Yoruba warrior caste. Eso Ikoyi won kii gbofa leyin, iwaju ni won fii gbota. Agba Ikoyi to gbojo iku toree gbalu. Ikoyi Eso, arogun yo- Ikoyi warriors/generals dont receive arrows in the back, they face on coming bullets heads on. Elders of Ikoyi that heard of his day of death and went to get drummers rejoicing, Ikoyi generals that delight in wars
