Loool for real. Lookman is the only one I'm bothered about.

For those that reside in Abuja and Lagos, please how is the popularity and aerial coverage of CoreTV like?

The SWAN Edo state chapter Vice Chairman, who works with CoreTV Abuja, assured me of the slot after I shared this idea with him. I also intend approaching other popular media outfits.

These awards must not end on the front page of Nairaland. It must get to SWAN and numerous media outfits, The NFF, Rohr and even the players themselves.

komekn:
Agreed.

Why is a young player invited to the SE after just 2 games in LA Liga, its essentially we just don't have many true promising young talents in top leagues anymore. I can totally understand the euphoric adoration he gets but i stand on the side of optimistic caution. i.e. small, small lets not force him to run when he has just started walking.

But is there not some double standard, why have Ebere and Josh Maja not been invited to the SE.

edi287:
Samu's emergence has made sure of it.

abeg icon4s if it's okay, can Supernerd take back his spot?

On Danjuma from OGN

” Injury made him miss the recent games for the Dutch national team but it’s clear to see why he was hurriedly capped by the Netherlands. He isn’t even the best player among the forwards at U21 level, his debut came to many as a surprise but you have to understand his case”, Roland Mark told Owngoalnigeria.com.

” Look he spoke about been open to representing Nigeria at senior level after a game for the U21s. Coach of the senior national team of Netherlands Ronald Koeman was among the people who criticised how Tyronne Ebuehi was lost to Nigeria. His move is to keep away from Nigeria, something they didn’t do with Hakim Ziyech who now plays for Morocco “, he concluded.

Icon4s:
Good, right on time.

With TheSuperNerd unavoidably not available. We went back to the list and Safarigirl is next in line. She has rescinded her earlier decision of opting out. So she can take TheSuperNerd's spot.

Please let's co-opt her so we can move on. Thanks.

Sample for Collation.

Each Committee member has nominated 3 players per award category. You just count the frequency of nominations for each player per category across all Committee members.
Eg.
1). Nigerian player of the Year nominations: Iwobi 5, Ighalo 3, Musa 4, Moses 2, etc. .Top 3= Iwobi, Musa and Ighalo.

Do this across all the Categories. I am suggesting Sir Joebie to join me in doing this please.

Cc: Tbaba1234, Komekn, Joebie, ChrisKels, Forgiveness, TheSuperNerd.

Deadline for nominations is 6pm (Nairaland time).

Komekn note that u have not made nominations for Most impressive New inclusions as all the players u have been nominating are not elligible. U have till 6pm to tidy this up. Else we move on without your nominations for that category.

Icon4s:
Ok, but if we go ahead with the remaining 6. We could potentially have to break some ties in the nominees mentions. Having 7 members in the committee will ensure we have tie breakers. Do we pick some one from the house to quickly join us in the nominations? I know people who would be willing to. Or we just move on with 6 of us and hope voting for breaking of ties goes well.

Cc: Tbaba1234, Joebie, Forgiveness, Komekn, TheSuperNerd.

We have till 6pm to decide this and then move on

Icon4s:
No be wetin we dey discuss for that thread we dey come summarize here?

Icon4s:
Please confirm you are nominating Muda Lawal.

BTW I hope u know Oliha won the AFCON and played at the 1994 WC.

Okwaraji died playing for Nigeria in a crutial WCQ plus he featured prominently at the 1988 AFCON and scored in the semi against Algeria.

Besides, when we were considering late players to honor why didn't u come up with Muda Lawal.

If you are nominating him now. No wahala. It is your choice.

Icon4s:
Why you dey shine teeth.

Leave my guy abeg. E no easy. Lol!

Icon4s:
Brian Idowu debuted in 2017 against Argentina. He is not elligible

And please make the modifications on the original post with which u nominated sake of easy collations.

BascoVanVeli:
Enugu and lobi advance.

Icon4s:
Guys do we tag the Best Midfielder award as Samuel Okwaraji award or Thompson Oliha award? Please indicate your preference.

Cc: TheSuperNerd, ChrisKels, Tbaba1234, Komekn, Forgiveness, Joebie.

ChrisKels:
U really catching feelings over that? Nawa oo, ppl have really lost touch of humour.

The meme attached shudda made u understand I wasn't taking it seriously

ChrisKels:
Dry joke

Icon4s:
Well, but no automatic place for him. He has to prove that he will add to the value chain.

mostob:
we don't want him.

busky007:
My ballon d or top three
Kelechi iheanacho =lcfc & Nigeria ,Kelechi nwakali = Porto & Nigeria, Dominic solanke = lfc & journeyman

Danielnino00:
Oga u are wrong.. South Africa started brightly but we caught up with them and dominated .. this South Africa team only plays fancy football... they are poor in front of goal...

tbaba1234:
I wonder if Oshoala will be selected as a penalty taker.

chrisooblog:
ok I get you now I agree most of that kind of talk is mostly sentimental we should learn to respect players on their choices of who they want to play for. The only thing I can relate to is if any player says they won't play for us again we should not waste time trying to convince such a player when we have other players who haven't been given a chance

chrisooblog:
please remind me what is the context again

chrisooblog:
good question I would say in the global scheme of things we are not a great football nation but if we restrict the analysis to africa then I will say we are one of the great football teams on the continent globally as with all things nigerian we have good potential which we have failed to realise

Earthquake2:
I'll be happy to

It's because football is the only uniting factor for our people, football is the only language we speak

oloriooko:
I saw a post about Billing saying he's not thinking about playing for Nigeria and someone said Nigeria has not showed serious intention?
To hell with Billing, which kind insult be this? If the dude feels he's too big for 9ja the he should shove his boring career up his azz and go to hell.
Nigeria is a great footballing nation that low life like Billing should jostle to play for, not 9ja begging the eediot. He should wait until england calls him up we don't need arrogant eediots like him. Mtchwwwww
