Your ‘most’ and “some” won’t go unpunished when caught in that similar circumstance.
Why? Because it’s illegal.

Spy360:
I have just read the transcript ofvthe convo between Salisu and Tiger. The coach was a victim of circumstances, and the under cover agent was intent on making him out to be corrupt rather than testing his morals. Salisu already knew the two players in question who were first team membera would definitely feature bar injury and sickness, and he pointed that to the agent without qny demands or any anticipated offer. The crooked under cover agent, forced money into his hands and made offers that Salisu neither requested nor needed any assurances. Fact is that, most coaches in Africa or some in Europe would probably do same within same circumstances. Ask Sam Aladyce.

The problem is we have not watched these lads play to really make judgements. There are rumors of underhanded deals. Should ther be truth to it, chances are Omidiji -- and not limited to Omidiji -- is not getting the nod to start in order to make other players look more valuable. I don't think forumites here have ever said FBs should be favored. The clamor has been for deserving FBs to be given a chamce to compete.

ChrisKels:
C bro I am pro foreign born and local born players. Choose the best, thats all, no favoritism. No preferential treatment bkus no one is more important than the other.

The team is doing well with Lateef coming in from the bench, if Lateef aint down with that, he can go. The coach makes the selections not Lateef.

If we continued this way, these fb guys would start feeling more valued than their local counterparts. And u know where that would land us

Kai Nigeria which way? Even for IAAF we are nowhere. Dalung get time to dey argue football.
Nigeria is finished. If I vote this time, I’m voting for a candidate who has what it takes to make Nigeria great for once. I’m not necessarily voting for someone who can win. Enough is enough.

It’s implied. If the “agent” was direct the coach would be uncomfortable. The coach should not be taking “gifts” from agents in the first place. The “agent” by offering Salisu 15% should all go well did his part to influence Salisu’s future decisions. The coach erred by not turning it down especially at that point.

Icon79:
Honestly, this is NOT as bad as it sounds. I have problems with Yusuf taking the money and the accepting the offer of 15% if a contract happens, but other than that this transcript doesn't show much corrupt intent.


O pari

I guess he was saying the same.

Toylove:
Sir, change our system of government with this same people?
Nothing will happen, Nigeria will still remain the Nigeria it remains today

Nice one

forgiveness:
Which not fit?

Na British establish prosperous Benin Empire, Oyo Empire, The kingdom of NRI, Kanem - Borno Empire etc?

Bros, these were stable wealthy States established by our people.

It is oyinbo mentality that makes some people believe black man is not fit to rule but na lie.

Change your system of government to that of UK and see how you fair.

Thank you. You read some stories, and you know it’s quack right away. That report is one example.

ChrisKels:
Was Ademola quoted in that article abi u no sabi read again? Even the person quoted has reservations, he wasn't sure of what he was saying

Green light when?

forgiveness:
He has given us the green light now.

Mauritania 1-1 Nigeria
Nigeria 5-0 Mauritania

Nigeria qualify for U20 African Championship 6-1 aggregate

I won't be surprised if it's true. Maybe we should just go for FB everything (coaches) because a few of us can be trusted haha. We are useless.

tbaba1234:
The gist is that coaches are being paid to play certain players at the expense of others. For instance, the top scorer, Devine Nwachukwu and Omidiji have started from the bench. Their introduction in the first game saved Nigeria's blushes but nothing changed in the second game.

So we are benching better players for those that settled. That is the gist anyway.

Just a couple days ago I went for my PVC registration. You wouldn’t imagine that the INEC officials connived with the primary school gateman to collect money from people so they would be registered ahead of others. My brother, it’s terrible.

Modified
But let me not leave us without telling the full story. One of the officials complained that they have not been paid their salaries for months, arguing that they are also humans.

And for those of us who consider the Bible our Scripture for guidance, the good book says we should do our work like we are working for God and not man. That says it all

tbaba1234:
Corruption has eaten so deep into the system. People claim to be religious but commit terrible acts of corruption. It is not just the political leadership, it goes down to the lowest strata in society. In fact, the person who tries to do the right thing is seen as an enemy of progress.

People will then go to their places of worship to do thanksgiving for stolen wealth.

Exactly!!!

safarigirl:
The video in which Salisu was collecting bribe was in relation to CHAN, was it not?

Please, does anyone have any video of Rohr collect8ng bribe for the World Cup? If your brother is caught stealing, does that make you a thief?

I don't know the narrative some people are now trying to spin that somebody said something and was harassed. The somebody is now here shouting about World Cup selections as if Salisu was caught collecting bribe to field Idowu.

Please, let us not use the sin of one cow to burn an entire herd. Be guided in your words and accusations.


Stop spreading unverified rumours lest you hang yourself with your own rope

Oga Salisu singlehandly ran the CHAN team. We all know that and many of us have always questioned his selection.. where did you get this one from. If U want to be vindicated stick to the report. Nobody ever denied that our indigenous coaches have not been corrupt at one time or the other.

komekn:
Tell them oh

Shameless BULL HEADED coaches demanding bribes and insisting you must sign with thier preferred agent to stay in the SE.

The internet doesn’t forget. My position is on record. Feel free to dig and quote me.

forgiveness:
Hahahaha! I have been vindicated at last. Praise be to Jehovah.

Joebie, how far?

Where a player plighs his trade is indicative but not conclusive. I will never shift the goal post.

forgiveness:
Yes, I clamoured for him when he was doing well in the Eredivisie ahead of player in one obscure league you people were clamouring for.

What is problem?

Relegation of a club doesn't determine the quality of a player. He is in the French 2 division.

TRANSFER RUMORS

Ikuowem Udoh --> Club Brugge
Simy --> Lazio

Government interference still. Simple solution, sack the Sports Minister. He is not performing.

BascoVanVeli:
I am getting word that the president ordered Giwa out of office and brought back Pinnick.

I'm sure you will find some Germans that accept them fully, just as you would find some Nigerians that would not accept them fully because they were not born in Nigeria. It's a people problem.

tbaba1234:
It is so sad to see what is happening with Ozil.

The western world does not really accept immigrants or children of immigrants from other parts of the world. When you win , you are German. When you lose, you are Turkish.

With all the achievements for Germany, it is so sad that he is treated like that. All these German-Nigerians waiting for German call-up, I hope, they can see that they might never be fully accepted no matter how german, they are.

Even Akpoborie played in the German second tier, and was very impressive before he moved up. Osimhen is even young.

andrew444:
I agree with everything you said here,no need to be siding our players when things are not going out well.

Yes Wolfsburg is a shadow of its former self,and osimhen doesnt play games more than origi,anybody that say that is a liar.

The boy should move on loan,even if its german division 2,he should go,that doesnt mean he will not be a great player,he cant just sit down there in wolfsburg

Nice. It's now on record

tbaba1234:
There are some other pics

Papas go dey talk say they took WAEC with these lads the same year. Gladly Omidiji s here. He needs to take more pics with the rest of the boys since that the only certification we will agree to accept over MRI.

tbaba1234:
Nigeria under 15.

In a few years, some people will swear that these boys are 35.

I believe he will still called up by Rohr. But he'd have to show consistently that the Saudi league is not killing his game. Eat the big pie for a couple years and return back to Europe.

tbaba1234:
Money move... Musa can still play in Europe for a few more years.

That one na national team retirement if he goes.

Ahmed Musa to Saudi Arabia?

Musa Yahaya to Nantes? I would so much love that.

ChrisKels:
Seems the Nantes - Porto new found tie is gonna benefit yet another Porto B player in the person of Musa Yahaya this coming season, as it is rumoured that about 3 porto B players will continue the trend started by Awaziem who was a huge success with Nantes last season.


Fingers crossed

Sir just say you alone can be that person.

komekn:
No they are not and probably don't even know where to start.

He is not coaching them so what does he need a UEFA A grade badge to do.

This is about engagement continous consistent relationship with honesty and openness.

There is no EPL academy without a good percentage of Nigerian origin players.

But across all the leagues you will find Nigerian origin players.

This requires someone who is in England it's not a holiday trip. It's literally a full time job. Without an investment thier is no return.

Ademola Lookman went from Sunday football not even non league semi pro to the EPL in barely three years. How many other players are there like him ❓

Looking for outstanding talent is really uncovering what the mainstream clubs have over looked for whatever reason.

What our guys do is get into relationship with agents and players in academies and really don't do any real legwork. So what become more important is not your performance but your club and agent. That's juat laziness.

Then there are the boys who are in academies who may or may not ever make it to the first team.

Playing in an Academy is mostly indicative not conclusive. Barely 76% of academy players end up playing professional football. That should tell you something.

In reality there are more boys going up to professional football than those who went through the academy route. That's a bewildering statistic.

Building relationships is not an Oga and my boy approach particularly in England, that will not work.

You need someone with genuine passion and a desire to get the best players not the best deal for self interest.

However, maybe I am dreaming is that possible in our country today. To pursue the IDEAL before the deal. You tell me.

Aigbogun has a lot of players to work with.

tbaba1234:
Remember Shawn Adewoye?? I posted about him a while back..

He made his debut for Genk today.. One to keep an eye on..

My bad!

BascoVanVeli:
It was an honest question he is trying to know more about the coach. Wetin bring head master into this talk sef?

What has Adepoju achieved in his coaching career? You guys have been complaining that NFF is not doing enough to woo Anglo-Nigerian players. This man is doing just that, he has the credentials talking of UEFA liscence and has handled clubsides in Nigeria. Forgiveness you and komekn should be excit d at this. It’s unfortunate this is coming from u.

forgiveness:
So Aigbogun na Britiko. Make em convince dem ooooooo. He should remember Deji Beyreuther too.

Sir BascoVanVeli, what has this man achieved in his coaching career?


Aigbogun Follows Rohr’s Diaspora Recruitment Style

By Editor - July 14, 2018

Youth national team, Flying Eagles head coach, Paul Aigbogun has taken a leaf from the style of Super Eagles technical adviser, Gernot Rohr, in calling up players of Nigerian origin who were born abroad.

With Rohr having made a success of such recruitments with Tyronne Ebuehi, Bryan Idowu and Ola Aina, after consolidating on the earlier arrivals of Carl Onuoha Ikeme, Leon Aderemi Balogun and William Troost-Ekong, Aigbogun is now following suit with the under-20 squad.

Aigbogun confirmed as much, as he disclosed that he recently held talks with players of Nigerian descent when he visited England last month and urged them to switch their national team allegiances.

The Enyimba of Aba coach, who disclosed that he was in England to renew his papers as a British citizen, said he met with some youth team players of various top clubs, who are eligible to feature for his side.

Aigbogun, who is in Mauritania for the first leg tie of the 2019 African U-20 Nations Cup final round of qualifiers, said positive talks were held with players of Nigerian descent while he was in England.

He recounted: “I met a couple of players who are eligible for England and also Nigeria. They are within the age limit require for my team and we had positive talks about a switch of allegiance to Nigeria.

“They are willing to play for Nigeria and some of them would have been in my squad for the Mauritania game but it’s pre-season time and most of them will be involved with the first team.

“Aside playing for the youth teams of top clubs in England, they have what we think we lack at that moment in the team but that doesn’t mean an automatic shirt for them. They have to come here and slug it out with the lads we have in camp.”

Thank u sir

Those guys with white wrapper are already proven ritualists or cultists.

The Fulani man with an AK-47 is already a proven Killer.

The bottom line is if you do not have any proof or indications that a group of players are age cheats then you cannot label them as such.

I, for now, take the MRI thing seriously and will continue to defend the ages of Manu and Amuneke's boys because of the very high level of accuracy of the MRI. As a scientist I take to recognition any device with over 90% accuracy or efficiency.

So until, another theory comes up that the MRI is not as accurate as proposed after all, I will continue to believe in the accuracy of its results.
