European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Offical Bayern Munich Fan Thread: 6x Champions Of Europe by FastShipping:
A40:
[b]Definitely not. To be very frank German football administrators didn't push the game hard enough and that is why the followership wasn't strong. I grew up following the Mannschaft watching Football Made in Germany and was also able to follow the likes of Bayern, Dortmund in the Champions League circa 94-98. (I was a massive Klinsmann and Elber fanboy) and Andy Moeller was the best midfielder in the world as far as I was concerned. Nothing like EPL then! Rothmans Football used to run weekly roundups of leagues around Europe and there were no highlights sef so if you grew up in Nigeria around that time and you tell me you were a fan of any EPL team other than Man U you are most likely lying

It all went to sh!t From the late 90's up till 2010 or thereabout, German Football was pretty much non-existent in Nigeria and that coincided with the boom in EPL followership. La Liga and Serie A were still thriving and you had ninjas tell you they supported Man U and Barca, Arsenal and Barca. We had raves in early Uni years mid/late 00's where repping one English club was the cool thing to do niggas putting name and numbers of their favorite players on the back of their cars

By the time BuLi came back around 2010/2011 period if you didn't have cable which viewing center/lounge wan show Bayern vs Gladbach when Chelsea and Stoke City dey play unless na your papa get the place.

I doubt the BuLi will ever catch up. I know only one Bayern fan in person and I met em through social media

Hahaha Bini boys are very dangerous, those people no dey happy at all! na all of them dey play runs and always show their logo whether in school environment or not. I dey always comport if I go see my people for that side


Na wa for you ooh! So na team wey dey play good football you dey find? So why you come dey support Chelsea

They don't play Chelsea's brand of negative football For someone like you I'd recommend Schalke, Hamburg or Cologne
English League was not popular back in the 80s as it is now but was followed by some football fanatics in Nigeria; especially those Nigerians who schooled or had close ties with UK in the 80s. I was a little kid back then I remember my dad and his friends used to discuss the likes of Aston Villa, Wimbledon, Nottingham Forest, Liverpool and Arsenal. These were the top teams in U.K back in the 80s. I remember back then when adults were checking newspaper for results on Sunday mornings. English League was not on TV back then but people still followed it through other means. I don't know if anyone still remember the pool page in the national dailies with above British teams listed in them. There were pool papers available in Lagos back then with British teams listed in them. I grew up hearing those names from adults who love football in the 80s. By late 80s and early 90s, Bruce Groebbler, John Fashanu, John Barnes, Bryan Robson, Lineker were names in people's mouth on weekends. The way Manchester United sprang up from no where around 1992 was a shock. The Manchester United jersey with SHARP logo in front of it was the most popular jersey back then. It was during that time that NTA began to broadcast British League sponsored by Rothmans PAL Mall. Another thing that brought awareness of British League to Nigeria was the move of Daniel Amokachie to Everton in 1994 from F.C Brugge. Back in those days, Amokachie seemed to be the most popular Nigerian player in Europe in which boys were following his football progress. The moment Amokachie moved to England, Nigerian were always following his progress in England. I can remember when Amokachie got to Everton but couldn't get games under Joel Royle and then John Toschark but the moment Amokachie scored two goals in the semi final of the FA Cup against Manchester United and then won the FA Cup final, British football was finally born in Nigeria in 1995. Another factor that created awareness about British League was a broadcaster named Larry Echiejiele/Izamoje who was fond of bringing news about British League. I still remember the likes of Segun Odegbami, Larry Izamoje and Tony Akiotu always going to England to interview the likes of Afan Ekoku, Amokachie, John Salako, Reuben Agboola, and Fashanu brothers, etc.


When it comes to German League in Nigeria, it started in 1989. German league was the first and most broadcast European League back in the late 80s and early 90s on NTA 2 Channel 5 from 8pm - 9pm on Sundays. The like of Uwe Bein, Andreas Moeller, Maurizio Gaudino, Andreas Brehme, Stefan Reuter, Thomas Haessler, Lothar Matthaeus and co were some of the famous names to play in the German League in the late 80s and early 90s. Players like Sammer, Effenberg, Elber, Sergio, Tarnat, Jeremies, Ulrich, Andreas Moeller, Oliver Khan, Martin Darlin, Andreas Anderson, Jorginho, Allain Sutter, Chapuizat from Switzerland, Ossei Kuffor, Anthony Yeboah, Okocha, Akpoborie and others were the names that brought fame to German football between 1995 and 2004. The best of the German club teams back in those days were Bayern Munich, Duisburg, Karlsruhe, Dortmund, Monchengladbach, Weder Brehmen, Nuremburg, Stuttgart, Kaiserslautern, Dusseldorf and few others.

These were the times I enjoyed football matches that are not available today. Football is now about running and less about skill. Is there a football player today who can pass ball better than Steffan Effenberg? Is there any defender today close to what Sammer was between 1993 and 1999? Is there any striker today better than Roberto Baggio, Christian Vieri, Ivan Zamorano, Marcelo Salas, Davor Suker, Alain Bosic, or Mihajatovic? These players wouldn't make first 11 at Chelsea today with the way Mourinho plays football.

PoliticsRe: Owing Of Salaries Wasn't This Bad During Pdp Regimee by FastShipping: 3:56am On Jul 12, 2015
APC government just came in 41 days ago. So if present governors have been owing between 4-9 months salaries, shouldn't your brain tell you it was during Jonathan administration such problem began? Mind you, the federal government has been borrowing money to pay salaries since November 2014 while at the same time reducing allocations meant for state governments since middle of last year.

Why don't you use your brain and leave politics for those who have brain?

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Offical Bayern Munich Fan Thread: 6x Champions Of Europe by FastShipping:
I once said here more than a year ago that Guardiola is gradually destroying Bayern Munchen but some people disagreed. Bastian is a kind of product that no matter what happens, he should be Bayern Munchen player till he retires. Bastian is heart and soul of this team. He is a true Bavarian product.

Gaudiola has destroyed Bayern Munchen. It is no more a matter of "about to destroy". Gaudiola has dismantled this team. He has been dismantling this team since he took over. Bundesliga weakness was the only reason they've been able to win in the last two years. Jupp Heynckes built a solid team before stepping down but Guardiola came and gradually created crack in the team. What is Alaba or Lahm doing in the midfield? Why he played Martinez at the back when central defenders were sitting on the bench? Players are being pushed around like barber chair. Gaudiola victimized a whole doctor that worked at the club for decades. A well respected doctor world wide. The same doctor that was there when Germany won the 1990 world cup. The best German doctor ever was let go like a nobody.

This is the season Gaudiola finally get sacked.

Nigeria is a sorry country where thing like this have no law backing the owner of the property. A lady has been living in my dads flat since 2013 and she has not paid a dime. She has been coming there once in a while and living with another man in another city in Lagos.

Another tenant is also owing over a year without paying a dime. Police, MOPOL, court got involved, yet nothing happens.

OJtOp2:
“Let it be known, that I didn’t just join the APC, I was wooed by the legacy parties and four other PDP governors then. Naturally in every bargain, interests must be spelt out. Of course they did promise me the Vice Presidential ticket in the forth coming election with a condition to sell the party and make President Jonathan unpopular. The initial arrangement was to pair me with Hon. Tambuwal (Speaker of House of Representatives) .

But when other entrants like Atiku and others entered the party, everything changed. It was Gov. Nyako that opened up to me on the recent changes, and pleaded with me to take the position of the National chairman of party, that it will be zoned to the South-South. And I grudgingly accepted. Now, in every political convention, consensus building is needed to harmonize all interests.

So I initiated a platform for the 16 APC governors to talk in Port-Harcourt last week. And in that meeting, the 13 governors and their deputies that were in attendance reassured me that I will be given the national chairmanship slot. But when I asked Gov. Adams to ask Chief Ikimi and John Oyegun to step down for my candidate, Adam’s quietly told me “My brother, I know the bad name they have called you in the South-South and Rivers in particular. Again, I sympathize with you because I know how much you have put-in in APC, this Yoruba and Hausa people can’t be trusted, they said you couldn’t build the APC in Rivers State and that only 95,633 out of the 1.3 million membership you claimed have passport photographs. That everything was doctored by you”.

I find it very disappointing, that we no longer have men of trust, and integrity. Men whose words should be their bond in politics. So last night, I made my position clear, that if the other candidates didn’t step down for Dr. Sam Sam Jaja, then there was no point picking the expression of interest form. I feel deeply betrayed”
