Bad day for me as I lost my dear father this morning.

Icon4s:
And you feel that made Victor Moses deserve the award?

Forget patriotism Mohammed Salah deserved the award.

Icon4s:
What is your proof?

Icon79:
What is it with this Nigeria's obsession with England? If we are playing Croatia, Iceland, and Argentina then we should be thinking about playing friendly games against countries like: Serbia, Poland, Sweden, Denmark, Uruguay, and Brazil.


O pari

terzurum5:
I didn't mean that. What I meant was that "what if after deducting our points we did not qualify?

Loogan:
If we are to look at the positives from this embarrassment it's that the federation will be under severe pressure and criticism especially after abandoning the team in rio. With this stupid mistake our federation can buckle up and become more organized.
Just like the South Africa match which was a wake up call for our team! this should serve as a kick in the ass of NNF officials to get thier shit together, you can't aim for success and make such mistake. Assuming those points cost us the World Cup ticket I can bet every penny a lot of these Anglo/Nigerian players would lose the love and interest in the country, I can only imagine the emotional trauma it would have caused the players were we not to qualify. we also would not get any of the top prospects, what's the use when they they hustle and fight for success then some official causes the team failure just because of laziness and incompetencey.
Our president has apologized it's accepted since it didn't cost us, but this kind of situation cannot repeat themselves.

realpoacher:
You guys won the last argument concerning FIFA rankings, but your first paragraph is a big lie.

CHAN is fully accepted by FIFA as Confederation's Regional tournament and its full ranking multiplier is 3.

People die regularly from doctor's incompetence in Nigeria.

I know someone who was given an IV of glucose but this man was diabetic. It took an observant visitor who was also a doctor to observe the anomaly otherwise the man would have died from incompetence.

Someone will then tell you, everyone makes mistakes after all he has been saving/serving others.

First time to comment on this thread
Abeg I won ask small pinkin question oo
Assuming FIFA later find out that Algerian also feeded an illegible player in that same match what will happen to both team?

Icon4s:
What I suspect would have happened is they probably were aware of Shehu's yellow card against Swaziland but lazily assumed that it would be wiped off automatically as we progress to the next round.

They probably didn't go the extra mile to find out the FIFA rule concerning that in this particular tournament.

Just like a lot of people were talking about head to head being used as a qualifying criterion prior to the Zambia game in Uyo (including Peterside Idah). Meanwhile for this particular edition of qualifiers it is goals difference.

There must be people in the technical committee whose job it is to read and interpret these FIFA rules.

DrKlever:
Absolute trash! you're encouraging incompetence right?? There is no where in the world were such level of negligence to duty is pardoned. Mistakes ko. people make mistakes in exam and yet they are still failed. As a pharmacist, if i dispense the wrong medication to your loved one leading to loss of life. will you pardon me for such?

Icon4s:
You mean a whole NFF would not have a Legal adviser?

And what is the job of the NFF technical committee?

Icon4s:
Meaning Zambia too will now start searching.

tbaba1234:
Algeria notified FIFA. Meaning they had our records but we did not.

kennysville:
I dont think it is fair blaming NFF. The euphoria of dead rubber match got the better of everyone including yours truly.
But wait O! Is nt that match the qualification match befor the group stages? Why would the card count in the second phase to which Nigeria progressed?

I think this fifa rules need to be explained clearly. Let us hope they werent lying in wait to see if we were gonna slip up. I foresee them doing more digging. Was this necessary at this tym? After world cup draws had been done? I am beginning to think Fifa feels Nigeria na bad market for the world cup O!

terzurum5:
Same way the thing took the person unaware is the same way it would have happened to anyone of us if we were in charged.

If you doubt me then, how come it did not come to our notice.

Cc: tbaba1234

Icon4s:
Our ranking will now plunge further to like 60th. Thank God the draws have been made already, else na pot5 we for dey.

Joebie judging from your post i see fear written all over. Hahahaha

Humility017:
have you forgotten that most Africa countries are French speaking...this often play out during those mikel and okocha robbery....coupled wit the presence of isa hayotu as CAF president......
I believe in 2013 mikel should have won the caf apoty...he did better than toure that year...likewise in 2004 jayJay deserve to win also the apoty...how eto won it that year still remain a mystery....

Taliban:
Not exactly the same situation in my opinion for Mikel and Toure. Maybe you can refer to the okocha/hadji robbery.

tbaba1234:
Mikel had just played an important role in Chelsea's Europa League triumph and won AFCON as Nigeria's best player.

Toure had a trophyless season with City and was bundled out by Mikel's Nigeria.

Toure won that trophy on past achievements not that season.

Ofcourse, you can say Toure is a better player but for that year, Mikel edged him.

goldfish80:
Please let's not twist facts. Mikel had a better AFCON than Yaya but Yaya was clearly the better performer in the Epl. At the time, Yaya was top 5 world best midfielders.
He was the only African who made the FIFA best that year.

The argument was that the AFCON should be used to determine Africa's best in an AFCON year. But Aboutreka would have won 3 back to back Apty if winning the AFCON was the criteria.

I've been a follower of this thread for a while now, although started posting comments today.

Joe is a grown ass man, he can do whatever the hell he wants, any where he wants online, we're not his parents. Just so that when he comes into this thread he takes off whatever cloak he puts on in other threads, we're cool.

You coming to threaten the peace of this thread is as empty as the loudest drum, as you'd be ignored to the extent you'd doubt your existence, I trust the group of matured people here.

Whatever issues you have who Joe, work them outside of here. Entendido?

elunico:
I have a question to ask. Is this the time to go about "looking for the best?" or is this the time for us to "bring out the best in what we already have?"
