you bask in your ignorance. Show me evidence right now that those people were able to do what you've claimed in America, not the UK you fool but America (if you have a hard time telling the difference). Nigerians in America and covered under term black/African American, this should inform you that there isn't much difference. While Africa was just gaining independence, black Americans were fighting for civil human right here in America, so were other blacks around the world especially in the western hemisphere. In the 60's you couldn't even use the same restroom as whites in the south and some part of the North, talking about some nonentity from Africa being able to forge ahead in America. If AAs haven't paid the price, America would not be a place where blacks could freely migrate to.
As early as 1926, there were already Nigerians studying at US universities. I'm sure I don't need to tell you how expensive that must have been back then...Nnamdi Azikiwe got his Masters from Unversity of Pennyslyvania in 1934. I hope you know that UPen is an Ivy League uni and one of the most prestigious Unis in America. By 1960, Odemegwu Ojukwu was a board member at Shell Oil....one of the largest oil producers in the world.

If you think that some 'nonentity from Africa being able to forge ahead in America' was an impossible mission, you should go outside, buy a long sturdy cane, and then pay someone to flog you with it.

Like I said, the struggle of the average African American was and generally is not the struggle of the average Nigerian.

Don't sound naive my friend. Money can never erase racism in some climes. Is Davido richer than Samuel Eto,Prince Boateng even Danny Rose from England that have all been victims of racist abuse and chants? It's goes beyond money my friend.
Racist abuse in a football ground doesn't count my friend.

I remember attending a Nigerian game vs Scotland in London, and the Nigerian fans behind the goal were taunting the Scottish keeper, calling him a useless oyibo and asking where his skirt was....

If you attend football games as regularly as I do, you will recognise that abuse in the stadium, even racial abuse, doesn't really count as an act of racism per se. Football fans will abuse anything and anyone that isn't in their team shirt.

Paid which price?

And for who? cheesy

Before and During the Civil Rights Movement in the 60s, Rich Nigerians were already building extensive property portfolios abroad. The likes of Alhaji Dantata and Sir Odemegwu Ojukwu were filthy rich, and didnt need Dr Martin Luther King Jnr to fight for their right to buy property in America or the UK or anywhere else. The Civil Rights movement simply did not relate to them, because they were not in the same category as the average African American.

I agree Davidoo does not share the AA slave history, still does not make it alright for him to to be insensitive (Deliberately).

Its cool though.. I see the point you and Sweetcocoa are making.
Check this...

The Confederate flag: a symbol of racism for some, but a fashion choice for Kanye West.

The rapper was spotted Saturday wearing a jacket emblazoned with the flag after being criticized for featuring it on merchandise for his current “Yeezus” concert tour, People reports.

In an interview Monday with Los Angeles radio station 97.1 AMP, West explained why the former flag of Southern states during the Civil War made its way into his merchandise.

You know, the Confederate flag represented slavery in a way – that's my abstract take on what I know about it,” he said, according to People. “So I made the song 'New Slaves.' So I took the Confederate flag and made it my flag. It's my flag. Now what are you going to do?"

Fhuck that..

People suffered real consequences as a result of slavery..

The fact that Davidoo is rich and has enough money to live way about the racism level does not take away the sensitivity the confederate flags represents to Blacks in the U.S who had to live through lynching, burnings, segregation, oppression and all other atrocities carried out under that banner.

I may have money, but that does not make it okay for me to wear a Nazi Swastika on my shirt.. Not even as a Hip Hop symbol.


Davidoo fhucked up.. I just hope he was ignorant about it and didn't do it intentionally..
Davido is Nigerian...not Black American.


His history and experience is very different to the Black American experience.

Thus Confederate flag means absolutely nothing to him. Why should it?

The funny thing is that the Yeezy brand is owned by the Black American Kanye West - If Kanye is selling jackets with Confederate Flag on it, why cant Davido buy and wear it?

Avram Grant didnt have a coaching license yet was given a job at Chelsea in England that doesnt give people chances.

By the time he went to Lazio he had already won Coppa Italia, by the time he went to Inter he had already won 2 Coppa Italia. Pay attention and see the progression

Mourinho was assistant coach at Lisbon to Juup just like Giggs(Though Welsh) is currently and when Juup left he assumed post of manager just like Giggs did at Englands biggest club when Moyes was let go.

Difference after the Benfica small job Mourinho found his way to small club Uniao Leira to gain first team managerial experience while Giggs is still sitting in Man Utd bench instead of finding his way to West Brom like Mourinho did

But let English manager continue to wait for someone to hand them the biggest prize
In effect Guardiola, Zidane,Wenger Mancini and Pellegrini were handed the biggest prize!

You asked why the English have not won the league.

The answer is that the English do not manage the teams that have won the league.

The reason why they haven't been given the chance to manage those clubs is down to a lack of trust.

I have shown time and time again how experience is optional when it comes to recruiting on the continent. Mancini was still a player for Leicester when he got offered the Fiorentina job. This was a team that had won the Coppa Italia only the season before...and were playing in Europe, signing an actual football player still in contract to manage them.

Mourinho had no experience before becoming Benfica manager. AvB had less than a year. Pellegrini relegated one club, the next season he was hired by the biggest club in Chile. Wenger relegated a club in May...by July he was managing Monaco.

It's then patently obvious that their past experiences or even failures cannot be objectively used as a reason to castigate English managers, when their contemporaries have histories just as bad...or even none at all!


Which is why I'm going to ask you for the last time: Why does 'experience' seem to be holding back English managers in England, in a way that it clearly doesn't elsewhere in Europe?

I'll give you a clue: It's the same reason why you are depriving a natural born American of a job where you are. The same reason why there's a white English boy probably crying himself to sleep at night because Ibime is sitting in the chair that should have been his....

It's the one of the reasons why the UK will be voting on June 23 whether to remain in the European Union....

Before Inter Mancini went to Fiorentina and Lazio are those not the equivalent of Spurs and Newcastle?

Before Porto Mourinho went to Union Leira and Benfica what are the equivalent of those here? are those not Bolton and Liverpool size?

Catolica wasnt the first job Pellegrini did , I checked wiki now and saw he managed Palestino and O'Higgins are those the top clubs in Chile?
Jogi Low was given German NT just like McClaren was given the NT what did Low make of his what did McClaren make of his
Although Mancini had written a research pamphlet entitled "Il Trequartista" which examined the role of an attacking midfielder, he had not as yet attained the necessary coaching badges to become a manager. He therefore needed special dispensation from the Italian football authorities to take the post at Fiorentina,[34] which was given on 4 March 2001.

Wikipedia

That alone tells you the kind of support granted to Mancini in Italy that you cannot find in England. He wasn't even legally qualified to manage, yet he got a job at Fiorentina

By the time he got offered the Lazio job, he had only 10 months total of managerial experience.

10 months experience was all Mancini needed to get a shot to manage a Champions League club.

By the time he went to Inter, he had only been a manager for 2 years.

Jose Mourinho had ZERO managerial experience when he got the chance to manage Benfica....a Champions league club and one of the biggest clubs in Portugal.

Which English manager has been given that chance at a top club?

Dayo please just get out of here....

All these mancini Mourinho you said they had success with the smaller clubs and were given bigger clubs

Brendan Rodgers had success in small Swansea, People thought his football was revolutionary, they promoted him to a top side and gave him money. Where did he end Liverpool? Was that the way Mourinho Mancini, Pep ended the bigger clubs they gave them?

Redknapp won the FA cup with Portsmouth and was rewarded with a bigger pie in SPurs, How did he fare afterwards?

Allardyce did well with Bolton and was given a bigger pie in Newcastle to manage. How did he do? Failed

Steve McClaren? He did well with Boro, was actually given the NT job and he failed to qualify them for Europe

The continental examples you gave, they did faily well in smaller clubs they are entrusted to bigger clubs and perform well. who would entrust anything to Rodgers, Redknapp McClaren after what they destroyed
My friend why do you keep jumping f course.

There have been 4 dominant clubs in the EPL.

I've given examples of managers going from relegation straight to title contending clubs in their home countries. Managers with a year or less of top flight managerial experience given opportunities at regular title contending clubs like Inter, Porto, Monaco(at the time), Real Madrid, Barca and Universidad Catolica(One of the biggest clubs in Chile)...and you're here mentioning Bolton spurs and Newcastle.

All these coaches you mentioned started from smaller teams in their home countries did well before they got to bigger teams in their home country did well before they went abroad

Ferguson started from St Mirren did well, went to Aberdeen did well before he gott to go to Man Utd

Mourinho same thing started at a smaller club did well, went to Porto did Well went to Chelsea

Mancini took Fiorentina won Coppa Italia, went to Lazio won Copa Italia before he got the opportunity to coach Inter Milan

What happened to all the English coaches? What happened to all the opportunities given to them

Steve McClaren was touted to be a brilliant coach by English standard i heard he was just fired by Newcastle after poor results, Tim Sherwood nko? WHat of Gary Monk sacked after 1 win in 11, The saviour Brendan Rodgers nko? Was he not given enough support at Liverpool? Was he fired untimely? Or Kevin Keegan

When would the Alan Pardew, Alan Curbushley, Paul Jewel, Roy Hodgson, Glen Roeder do well in their smaller clubs to earn a promotion to bigger clubs before we can start talking
Again this thing is very simple.

These guys got jobs at the top clubs in theIreland countries with relatively little experience.

AVB had only one years managerial experience and he got the job at porto. Jose had around 3 years of managerial experience. Mancini had relegated Fiorentina in his very short managerial career pre-inter. Wenger went straight from relegation to Monaco.

The fact of the matter is that all these guys got opportunities and patience in their home countries that is not available here.

The equivalent of Porto Monaco and Inter is Manyoo City Arsenal and Chelsea.

Please stop dumbing down the discussion by mentioning newcastle and Swansea.

As you can see from the examples I gave, even relegation did not stop Wenger from being offered a title shot with Monaco. It didn't stop Mancini from being offered a title shot at Inter. Pep went from Barca's reserves to a title shot. Even Zidane went from coach to manager with zero experience.

So why is Pardew finishing 5th with that dead Newcastle but only saw a job at relegation battling (at the time) Palace?

How come Redknapp with FA Cup wins and UCL experience never got a cracK at one of the current big 4?

Why is Nigel Adkins who led Southampton to back to back promotions from.League 1 to EPL currently back in league 1 managing Sheffield United?

You can argue that they've failed in some regards, but the nature of the managerial career includes inevitable failures...

The question is why is it that it's only in the EPL that the failures actively work against English managers?

5 teams have won the league since 1992. What Pedigree did Mancini have before winning the league and what pedigree did Ranieiri have if he should win this league or if Pocchetino wins what pedigree would he have?

The sacking culture in England is no different than its in other leagues Since August when the league started EPL has fired/resigned 9 coaches, Italy has sacked/resigned 11, La Liga 9 coaches, So how is this asinine excuse a reason for the poverty of footballing and coaching talent in England

Didnt all these clubs try English coaches before sacking them? Aside Man Utd, tell us any EPL club who didnt have an English coach since 1992 yet they have found a way to sack them. Was it not Mark Hughes who failed the City project before they started hiring Mancini and co?

Did Chelsea not try Glenn Hoddle before dumping him for Gullit, Vialli and co? Did Liverpool not give several opportunities to Brendan Rodgers, Kevin Keegan etc

The NT nko? How come the local coaches are so useless that they have to appoint foreigners to coach even the NT
4 teams have dominated the EPL since 1992.

These 4 teams have marked their ascendancy with periods of heavy spending.

Ferguson was breaking the British transfer records regularly from 1993 and i think he did that more on more than 5 occasions

Arsenal under Wenger regularly outspent most most other teams in terms of wages/transfers

Chelsea only became dominant from the coming of Roman, before him, we were the equivalent of spurs today(if that sef) so your point about hoddle/ vialli and co is not even relevant.

City only became relevant with the coming of Arab money.

Now check this.

Is there a single manager who won the league at any of these clubs who had not already won the league in their countries of birth?


Every single one of these guys, from Ferguson, to Wenger, to Jose to Ancelotti to Mancini to Pellegrini. All of these guys had won their local leagues in their countries of birth....


Some of the names I mentioned there, went straight from relegating a club to managing the top clubs of their home countries e.g Wenger, Pellegrini and Mancini.

Someone like AVB had virtually no managerial experience but was given a chance at Portugal's biggest club. The only manager that has been given that kind of chance is Moyes....and hes not English

What English manager has been given this opportunity in his own country?

You go even set formation finish person like Ibime with dem oversabi go dey tell you say na this formation we suppose play

You have to admit that aside competence there is a lot of luck that goes into coaching e.g I believe Benitez is a better tactician than many give him props for and he's better than coaching a relegation bound Newcastle

Neville wey no even sabi speak Spanish. He probably just thought that he would go out there and show them the sky ipad with the blue counters and tell them to play like that.

He should have done it the Henry way...coaching under an experienced manager like Wenger, learning the trade small small.

Then again he must have remembered that Ferguson won the league with mediocre muppets like himself and John oshea in the team, and spoke in a Scottish burr so deep it must have sounded like a foreign accent...

So he brushed his rat tail moustache, bought a new ipad, and flew his camera man to the Valencia dressing room in search of glory...

Of the 4 teams that have won the league since 92, 2 of them have had very long term managers, the two new guys on the block brought marquee managers with pedigree.


An English manager hasn't won it simply because there hasn't been an English manager at any of those teams for the last 20 years.

A lot of this simply has to do with the sacking culture prevalent in England. All the big name foreign coaches in England today were given opportunities in their homelands to cut their teeth before moving to England to manage.

Ferguson managed in Scotland. Wenger managed in France. Jose Managed in Portugal. LVG managed in Holland.

But when in England, you get sacked before you even get the chance to hang your picture on the wall in your new office, how do you get the chance to cut your teeth?

How do you get the chance to gain the relevant experience to become a marquee manager yourself?

So I don't see how some idi0t somewhere can claim English managers don't have the knowledge, when none have been given the chance. I'm even more disappointed that you posted that rubbish here

An interesting article

===================================================================================
Since the Premier League was formed in 1992, not a single English manager has won the title. A lesser known fact, however, is that the last Englishman to finish second in the top flight was Kevin Keegan at Newcastle United 20 years ago.

In the two decades following 'King Kev'’s infamous meltdown on live television, only two English bosses have even managed third position in the EPL: Roy Evans at Liverpool and a 70-year-old Sir Bobby Robson at Newcastle in 2003.


The state of English coaching at the highest level is quite frankly embarrassing. The FA and Premier League should be ashamed. There are currently only three English managers in the EPL; two of these at sides who are fighting relegation (Alan Pardew and Sam Allardyce). Neville’s dismissal by Valencia means there are now no English coaches in La Liga, Serie A, Ligue 1 or the Bundesliga. Even two of the last four England managers have been foreign.

Neville could be considered an exception in this respect. But [size=14pt]the English nation as a whole, to put it bluntly, lacks footballing intellect when compared to their rivals[/size].

The main reason for this is the notoriously inward-looking British press which would have you believe that the only football being played in the world is in the Premier League, the "best league in the world".

http://www.goal.com/en/news/14312/features/2016/03/30/21847742/no-premier-league-titles-one-european-trophy-in-32-years-english-?ICID=HP_BN_2
How many Portuguese, French, German or any other countryman won the EPL.

Obviously no English manager has won the EPL because since 92 because the league was largely dominated by 4 clubs...all of whom could be argued have bought their way to success...and none of whom had an Englishman doing the buying
