oh ok,

i think your part of Ajegunle was near to araromi right?

There is a report that Isaac Success run a community project there, and he owned a school where the less priviledge attend and dont pay a fee

he just won and African Award for action community project

Good one from Success.

I was actually more of the Orile side.

Hope you are coming for the CHS old students End of the Year Party this Saturday.

do4luv14:
and Femi Opabunmi, if not for blindness( abi what was it then)
that guy would had go places

It was not Onigbinde that discovered Femi Opabummi.

Kog45:
Man busy ni o.

Chief how your end na

busy making ya Mirrions o kwa ya?

My end dey Kamkpe. I hold am right.

safarigirl:
I thought the awards have an ex-player's name attached to it?

Like, Stephen Keshi's Defender of the Year, Samuel Okwaraji Defender of the Year etc

Yes. Our fallen heroes.

safarigirl:
I propose we use same names for the most part, but establish new categories.

I also propose the Young Player of the Year award can be called Mikel Obi Young player of the year Award

As for new categories, I want to suggest John Fashanu Nigerian Players in the Diaspora Award.

I agree with your first paragraph. We will be coming up with a few more award categories.

On your second paragraph why Mikel Obi?
Remember the essence of naming some of these awards is to immortalize some of the dead heroes. Based on that Mikel no qualify na We may think of a Top youth player that is late now.

I also agree with your last paragraph. We may tag it 'Best Foreign born 'Prospect''. This will be in a bid to draw the NFF's and SE coaching crew's attention to that player.

Egbon, how far?

Where you go leave us since?

BascoVanVeli:
This is the kind of mindset that I am talking about. U played Brazil and Ukraine for Lesotho but u want to tell me that we don't need friendlies to prepare for a neighbouring country.

I am not a f**l u people are just fighting to maintain the image of your Pinnick. There is no other excuse for this shameless looking of the other way for a man that has failed time and again. Without the super eagles he is a complete loser and any man or woman that says different has a flawed character

Chairman we have not seen you at the other end.

forgiveness:
Any which way.

Forgiveness, how come you prefer to quote a 2018 post than to make contributions to what we have on ground.

komekn:
So go on Dr 2Know mention one ❓

Where is the hypocrisy, Sadiq played at a higher level was abysmal and dropped to a very very low level and is now outstanding at the low level.

What does that say he is an excellent footballer ❓ l put it to you the Hypocrisy and double standard rests with you not I.

Oga abeg no let me begin chase you up and down again this year o.

Let the Nominations begin

This man your blood just dey hot.
We have not started nominating yet.
Let's put a couple of things in place to allow for a smooth running.

TheSuperNerd:
Okay. Post the link so I can move my post there.

Please check your mention

Firstly we need to agree on how or who to select as our committee's chairperson.

Also we need to agree on the awards categories.
Are we adopting exact same for last year?
Are we removing or adding a couple of new categories?
Are we maintaining the names to be immortalized? We last used Ogedengbe, Keshi, Okwaraji and Yekini.

Please we need quick responses from committee members as this project has a time line.

Tbaba1234, Komekn, Bascovanveli, TheSuperNerd, Andrewbaba44, Safarigirl, forgiveness.

Let the Nominations begin

Good Morning bro.

We have a separate thread for the nominations so as not to get it all mixed up with other other conversations here.

Kbs468:
Sorry about this.

Did somehoww withdrew? Or He wasn't part of the Cmttee originally?

Because he wasn't copied on 2018 awards final outcome released but B.vanveli instead?

Somehoww was never part of the committee. I don't think he even got a nomination. Those in the copy are those nominated, hence, the people I will be working with.

somehow:
A user called islayer did this same thing to my comments multiple times and got no reprimand from no one but got multiple likes sometimes back

We should not allow all these dirty act exist on this thread

at earthquake, behave like a civilized person, win arguments with superior arguments, respectively bow out when you lose but know that we are not here to compete though.

Lets be who we want others to be to us always

I neva saw yours.

Please let's all behave matured here. We all have equal posting rights. No one's posts deserves to crossed and called rubish

Trash

Oga we cannot tolerate this here.

State your opinion and stop crossing that of other people and calling it trash.

Kalixx:
Is this not AUD 1 or AUD 2 in OAU bai? Good old days. If this venue reminds you of MEE 303 (fluid dynamics) especially one annoying capri sonne question like that, please leave a like. If this venue also reminds you of trying to connect to senate WI-FI but you get only 2 or 3 network bars with slow internet experience, gather here for a meeting.

I trust my people and know they're intelligent. I give them my blessings and pardon them -- let them catch their fun, but not exactly with a patently morally backwards song.

Senate wifi?

When we dey school noting like WiFi existed anywhere in the world

Kbs468:
I got your point of view to mean that yes indeed and in truth, STEPHEN OKECHUKWU KESHI of blessed memories didn't get enough ready made Players nor the pool of talents that NIGERIA has now as at 2015

And so deserves more praises rather than the criticism and ridicule he is being subjected to post his Era.

Any opioniated suggestion as to why the same KESHI failed to qualify with the same setup for AFCON finals 2015 after AFCON 2013 exploits?

Could it have been because of ego? Corruption? Bribery? Poor Team selection? Il-luck? Riffs with the authorities?

Just being curious to know your thoughts on the above for I can see your unwaivering love for KESHI. Although I also Love Our local coaches too when saddled with the responsibility of tinkering the National SE but my reservation for them makes me favour foreign managers over them.

Some times I still find it hard to believe that 'the boss' is no more.

And d chief gaffe of all yans









NACHO IS BETTER DAN MBAPPE

This one no be 2019 yan na

Eartquake1:
As we wind up 2019 let us rewind the gaffes of the year:

1) Onyekuru is more intelligent than Mahrez

2) Azubuike Okechukwu is better than Ndidi

3) Onyekuru has agreed personal terms with Bayern Munich

4)Percy Tau and Lorch will destroy Nigeria(mine) *facepalm*

Add yours

5) Enoch Mwepu and Patson Daka are better than all the players in the Turkish league

Kbs468:
Abeg abeg abeg. OMANBALA1, please there is no frustration anywhere biko.

Are we getting ready?...

Nominations start 25th November Committee get ready.

Kbs468:
The play-off thing is not completely True though and I did have reservations for it right from the day it was once made known on this trip.

Please just read the below


WHICH TEAMS ARE IN THE OLYMPICS?


A total of 16 Teams will compete in the men's football section of the 2020 Olympics.

Japan qualify automatically as hosts and they will be joined by 15 other national teams drawn from around the world.

Ok. Let's see how it goes.

There were no intercontinental play offs the last time though

Kbs468:
So it's either of GHANA & SOUTH AFRICA to be sacrificed? Hmmmmn

3rd place goes through automatically while the 4th team will go on a ploy-off against a South American team

edi287:
Whatever happened to this Belgian coach that won the league with Ocean Boys back in 07 or 08... Think he's name was Cooreman or something? There was a time I imagined we would've given him the SE job or one of the age grade teams

Cc Icon4s BascoVanVeli Tbaba1234 Forgiveness Charlesemeka85 andrew444 TheGoodJoe

Cooreman was still in the NPFL a couple of years later. He handled some other NPFL sides, Enyimba was one of them. I don't know where he is presently though.

CAF U23 semifinals results:

Egypt 2:0 South Africa
CIV 3:2 Ghana (Penalties)

safarigirl:
not Iheanacho, his mum was dead by the time U17 World Cup aired, not Omeruo, I don't think he made it to U17 World Cup

Kayode or Onazi

Omeruo was at the U17 WC in 2009 and played in every game.
