starlingslimnet:
As far as I am concerned this is pure idolatry which they need to stop. God bless the church

y did u say so?

CFCfan:
Nice suggestion. I also want Enyimba to build a new 35,000 - 40,000 capacity stadium in Aba (or it's outskirts). The present township stadium doesn't befit their status as an elite Nigeria/African team.

soon it will be done.

mod plz front page. Since febuary oooo

Ojestas:

thanks

rafindo:
.
may God bless u my friend, this what I have been saying we need to defeat this trend if not we will be enslaved for life.why I support the participation of the private sector I also wish to advocate the community fan base ownership where concerned fans will own a club. the Barcelona model or the Portsmouth model

amen bro. By next week i will post something about the league. Thanks

Ojestas:
The camera, picture quality, pitch, commentaries. . Hope they r upgraded as well, cos these r the major reasons i don't watch .

bro follow my thread cos every week i will always post an article about the npfl. Most of the pitches are sythetic. The coverage is by supersport. Kit suppliers are.. Adidas,joma,cone,owu just to name few.

laurel03:
but d you remember d poster ?? Why private club cease to exist in NPFL.... Abeg leave ?? Of home jersey or away jersey of Kano pillar? I have been watching Nigeria league since late 80s.. Kano home jersey is yellow and and dey always wr green jersey whenever dey play with shooting star....which private club have won Nigeria league since 1990? Did you know days of Abiola babes? B4 dey changed d club to concord FC? Why Moshood Abiola first stopped financing Abiola babes Did you know history of heartland Fc? Private can not run pro club in nigeria except dey it for charity

I am the poster. Ok? Those private clubs who won the league in 90s are udoji utd,eagle cement. Guy what i wrote in dat article is that if abiola had been selling the replica jersey, have a like 5yrs development plans, have good managment team by now it wont have folded. Same with nnwayahun national who changed to heartland.

laurel03:
how many people u see on d road dt wear enyimba jersey,kano or taraba fc jersey? I am a 3sc fan and I know that government only finance d club in d name of ibadan tinz sometimes in a year they spend more than 400millions on shooting alone and they never gained 100million back... That is why most club that played in Nigeria premier league are finance by their state government...

what is the colour of kano pillar home n away jersey? Pillars jersey is all over lagos. Made by cone, the same with enyimba. I beg talk with facts

Ojestas:
lol. .like 4 years ago.

i beg follow this season and see for yourself. Thanks

iseyinoro:
This OP knows little or nothing about the Nigerian Football League.You concentrated on Privately owned clubs of the 80s and early 90s as if the presently government owned clubs are doing better.LMC just increased the prize money to 80 million despite the fact that an average state governor spends about 200 million every year.Is that a loss or gain? Can you compare the spectators turnout in the 90s to what we have presently?
Our league is the 90s was well managed because of the zero government interference as most of the clubs were privately owned.
Most governors see football investment as a political tool in order to gain popularity unlike the Adebajos and Lekan Salamis of the that invested because of their love for the game.

i have written about the govt owned clubs until next week. Re-read what i wrote then u will understand that the adebajos did package super stores as business instead it a charity. Whose account did the sale of those white handkerchief of store went to? So leave the problem of govt owned clubs. Next week i write something about that by God's grace

okotv:
The major reason is that the league is not profitable. Private investments are for profits.

go through the article again, u will see that i list the reason why private clubs failed, if any new private club comes in all they need is to do the opposite of what i listed above then add 1 or 2 things.

Ojestas:
FTC again. . i dunno about those mentioned points,,all i know is that u don't win away games in naija.else, u r dead as the ref.

. Say the truth, you have not followed the league since last season because there have been alot away wins.

walemoney007:
aguyi ironsi didnt participate in d first coup,it was led by major ifeajuna and major nzeogwu,gowon was not the leader of d counter coup,it was led by murtala

The two coups were from which tribe and against which tribe?

noblezone:
Which history are you reading?

Imagine this bro.

Yoruba Army officers led a coup that saw the killing of Igbo leaders.
Igbo's retaliated by killing Yoruba's where ever they found them.
Igbo's staged a counter coup and killed Yoruba officers.

Yorubas ran home. and after series of meetings, decided to secede from Nigeria.
The declared independence.

Then the Igbos led other Nigerians to attack the new state.
They Yorubas defended until they were over run with the support of world super powers.

Just Imagine it, then replace Yoruba with Igbo and Igbo with Hausa.

You are talking from one version of the episode. Let me ask u what was the role of Gen aguyi irosi in the 1st coup that led to the death of abubarka tafawa balewa? Why didnt zik die in dat coup? Now listen Gen aguyi (igbo) killed TB(hausa) year i think 1964. Now gowon (hausa)retaliated by staging another coup too by killing Gen aguyi (igbo). Then war started 1967. So name the yorubas that killed igbos 1st with facts

who started the war? Ojukwu. Didnt the igbos kill nigeria people? They did. Now who are we going to arrest for the death of other nigerians?

Football fans in nigeria have been made to belief that there is nothing good about the npfl to the extent that they listed too many reasons but one of the reasons that made me write this article is even the lost of private sector prefrence in the european league to our league.

The major argument these lads had among themselves was that no business man has ever invested his money in the league and make a profit because the 'system' is not business friendly. Example that the critics gave were that no private clubs owner ever made profit or sponsor.

Now i will like to counter their claims because this is one of the issues the 'anti-npfl' fans used in chasing away potential investors.

After i conducted a serious research on some big reigning private clubs in the 80s and 90s i came up with these following reason why these clubs stoped to operate; Using abiola babes, stationery stores,udoji
utd, eagle cement as a case study.

(1) MOTIVE: These club owners were running the business as a charity organisation not in the hope of making profit from it. Thats was why non of the clubs ever had any sponsor or collaboration with fans. Imagine a team having a full capacity stadium in its home ground on match days but not knowing how to make money from the fans by selling replica jerseys, club materials etc.

(2) FUTURE PLANS: All this teams both past and presnt to have futuristic plans for the clubs. The owners died and the clubs too died because they never plan to have any successor because after all its just a 'charity
business'.

(3) ACCOUNTABILTY: The owners felt they are not suppose to be accountable to anyone and so the gate takings (which was the major or only source of income)mostly ended up into the wrong hands with no
one the account for it.

(4) MANAGEMENT: What was the club managers experience in football business? Did they have Players develoment sheet so as to know the players market value at the end of every season? Did they know the
average number of their fans to expect on match days so as to know amount to expect as gate taking and to use in making loans payment if necessary.

So to those intending npfl investors please dont reason with the past mistakes instead work on the points listed above.

Anas09:
I thought you were going to past a passage of the scripture that enjoin the christians to pay alligience to her. Catholic church is Babylon the great. The harlot spoken of by John in revelation.
The Premadona(queen of heaven) the Catholics worship is a demon, period. Catholic church in trying to stop true christianity Raised Islam to help them stampede christianity. They made mohammed to eradicate other idols and elevate his family idol has the supreme to stand at par with the Catholic god, but satan their master had his own plans.
Check Islam, hinduism and Catholic church. The same pattern of counting beats and chanting to their idols.

how did u know?

barcanista:
Buhari reminds one of Obasanjo's administration. Baba Obj Spend more time travelling and touring the globe during his first term...Without achieving ANYTHING!

Did u say OBJ didnt achieve anything? Ok let me ask u. Who help the nation to pay up and cancel her debt thereby saving over $13B as reserve? Who broke NITEL monopoly so dat common man like u and i can have phones? Do u know the No of people telecommunication has enployed but directly and indirectly? Who told nigeria about subsidy removal which we ignorantly rejected but not begging for its removal? Whose tenure was bank recapitalised? Do u knw how many people whose biz improve thru bank loan and how many people gained employment through that process? What about the all-time high in the capital market? I beg the list is endless.
NB; No sound economist and accountant will say what u said about OBJ cos the fact are there for us to see.
