Dutch coach applies for Eagles job

* More Stories on This Section

Dutch coach, Tom Saintfiet has applied to the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) for Super Eagles’ job.
The coach promised to take Eagles who are battling to win the Africa Cup of Nations in Angola to the semi final of the FIFA World Cup or forfeit his pay if given the job.

Saintfiet, who led Namibia from obscurity to stardom with only two losses from 11 matches said with the abundant talents in Nigeria, he would produce a classy team that will stun the world by reaching the semi final of the World Cup in South Africa. Saintfiet insisted that he wants to do better than Westerhof and Bonfere Jo, two Dutch men that made waves with Nigerian teams.

“I have submitted my application to the Nigeria Football Federation with a programme of how I hope to reach the semifinal of the World Cup if I am given the job to be technical head of the Super Eagles. My optimism stems from the fact that I have been a keen follower and admirer of Nigeria players and I believe I can do wonders with them
“Namibia is now a great side because the players were ready to learn despite the lean talents they have, with Nigeria I can turn out world beaters and I am ready to work with Amodu and his present crew to achieve our target,” stated the Dutchman
Meanwhile, Clemence Westerhof, who is unarguably the most successful coach the Super Eagles have ever had thrown his weight behind Tom Saintfiet as the man he feels can adequately work in the Nigeria and get the results.

"Since I left the Super Eagles, I have been an avid follower of the Nigeria National team. In recent days there has been talk in the media about the possibility of the NFF looking for a new coach to take the Super Eagles to the world cup. It is with this background that I would recommend Mr. Tom Saintfiet as the new Super Eagles coach" the letter read in part.

He stressed that Mr. Tom Saintfiet is the only man that is capable to do the job of training the Super Eagles to doing very well at the world cup within the shortest period they have to prepare for the world cup.
"He has shown and proved that he can work in Africa, with the minimal resources he has in Namibia he got miraculous results which will insure that he can prove even more with Nigeria" Westerhof noted. .

FYI he is NOT Dutch. He is from Belgium.

Na question I ask oo!

Yeah JWT did it. Go dude. Crush them all.

JWT! The man who looks like Ali. Show them what you gat.

Novak Djokovic 2 -2 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga

I see a fight between CT, GN and AF. 
oh wait, is that a 3-some?

Once a nazi always a nazi. The dunderhead can go shoot himself. Who cares.

May I say anyone who thinks that these are the best players we have in Nigeria is simply deceiving him or herself?

Notwithstanding I still support them (and will always do) and ONLY because they are wearing the colors of my country.

If stats were the keys to all victory then minnows would never have had their chances.

I can bet even Amodu is not impressed with himself (he shouldn't be).  If that is the "best" he can produce, I dare say that the SE have no future. You can quote me any where.  

Thank You Dear Lord!!!

As the issue of whether the current chief coach of the Super Eagles, Shaibu Amodu  should lead the team to the World Cup Finals of South Africa or not, the chief coach of the Namibia national team, Belgian Tom Saintfiet recently threw his hat into the ring, stating the reasons he thinks he should be considered as the man to do the job of taking Nigeria to the Nirvana everyone in the country has been dreaming about and salivating on.

ANC SEMIS NOT AMODU JOB CONDITION

A top official of the Nigeria Football Federation has told KickOffNigeria.com that reaching the semifinal of the Africa Cup of Nations was not a contractual pre-condition for Shuaibu Amodu to keep his job.

Instead, the contract only stipulates the semifinal target as a condition for renewing his contract when the current deal runs out in August.

Prior to the tournament, the general belief in the country had been that the coach's job was conditional on his leading the team to the tournament's semifinal.

Hours after he did so, however, an official told KickOffNigeria.com that that was not the case.

"We laugh when we read these things in the media. There is nowhere in Amodu's contract where it says he has to reach the semifinal in order to take the team to the World Cup.

"What his contract says is that he should qualify the team for the Nations Cup and the World Cup and take the team to both competitions. The contract ends in August, after the World Cup, but the contract says if he reaches the semifinal of the Nations Cup, then he gets a renewal, in August," said the official, who declined to be named.

Another official said after the PTF handed down the Presidential directive to fire Amodu, that element of the contract was brought to their notice, and it was agreed that even if a foreign coach was brought in, Amodu would remain as part of the coaching set-up.

It is not clear however, how such an arrangement would work without friction.

Sorry just seeing this now.

Can some1 tell Murray to shut up his mouth?
I understand the euphoria of making the last four but wasn't it against a wounded opponent?
It's just like a hunter killing a terminally ill lion or a ['man'?] who wrestles and batters his wife into submission
Pyrrhic victory just like the  Supa? Eagles did over Zambia

blimey!! Did you watch the game?! Why do people talk like this?
Murray gave Nadal some serious tennis lessons. He was on TOP throughout. Nadal had no breathing space at all.
Forget the injury 'cos Murray was leading by 2 sets to love and in the 3rd set he was 3-0 up. So what the heck are you talking about? Truth is Andy was terrific tonight.

It was game, set and match. 

Murray 6 - 3 Nadal (First Set)
Murray 7 - 6 Nadal (Second Set)
Murray 3- 0 Nadal (Third set)

And Nadal retires.

Murray wins.

These possibly can't be Nigerians! 
No bleeding way!

I pity these people and whoever they are someone is exploiting them big time.

Murray 6-3 Nadal (First set)

Murray 2-2 Nadal (second set)

Murray 5-3 Nadal

H2O2:
LOL You know girls think with their hearts n[/b]a.  Make una free the babe.

Anyways Rafa and Murray are on.

hehehe. . . I understand but one would think that only men make more emphasis on looks!

sexyLeamon:
offcourse he is a good player, if not he wouldn't be number 2 in the world. he just has that [b]raw sexual appeal that I find really irresistible,
if not Federal is a better player, but I love Nadal more coz of that  yeah called it a girl mentality I don't care

I'm very sexy too but mine is cooked and polished  But no mind me. Just pulling ya legs. 


Murray 3-2 Nadal

This will be tighter than tight.

I worship You O Lord!

This is terrible.

So sad.  That's my cousin! I just called and woke my brother up in Lagos on reading this news.  He is not even aware yet of what has happened.  I don't even know how my Dad and other elderly people within the family will handle this. What a shame! what a shame!!!![/quote]The Lord will be your strength. Accept my condolences.

sexyLeamon:
do not be so sure, Andy Murray is a good player as well and could for sure give Nadal a good run for his money. BTW this year Australian open, all the underdogs are playing really well anything could happend. but I hope Nadal wins he's just too sexy I love him!

You want him to win not because he is a good player but cos he is sexy?

What is it with girls sometimes. Just yesterday another one said she wanted to date the Zambian coach for the same reason as above. Whatever happened to other important things?

MrCrackles:
I seriously dont know what some folks are rejoicing about with Nigeria's lucky win yesterday. . .
A lacklustre and mediocre Nigeria side scraped past Zambia, and all of ya are losing your marbles
Rusty team full of old men who cant even self-service thier own co/cks
Inept and a tacticaly deficient management team - Now that is a bunch of jokes. . . .
Fuc.k me sideways. . . .Nigeria will be disgraced out in the next round and even at the world cup!
